"Excellent location, especially if you need to be near Gare de Lyon. It's right down the street and easy to get to with luggage. It's also near some cool nightlife spots. Lovely lounge and bar inside. I would absolutely stay here again. It's such a hidden gem."

Novotel Paris Gare De Lyon
"Room was clean but rather small. Beds were comfortable. Breakfast options was great but they close the dining restaurant at 10 when breakfast is until 10. Hotel is located conveniently next to Paris Gare De Lyon. It feels less safe when it gets dark which people loitering around outside the hotel. ..."
