Fantastic staff, beautiful rooms. Not super close to main part of Lyon but easy to jump on ebikes and ride beside the river safely and beautifully in to town all times of day. Was disappointed the restaurant and bar were closed during our stay because it was "slow summer" would have appreciated if even the bar stayed open so there was some type of drinks available because there isn't much super close in the area. Would recommend the hotel!

Restaurant needs improving

Trying to get drinks was pretty poor in the restaurant, I had the chef’s choice for my main meal, steak and fries, meat was terrible, probably one of the worst I’ve had, the starters were lovely!

Very clean and updated, easy to park and nice to have a restaurant on site (although hours are a little strange). Our shower did not have a rubber stopper on the bottom, so the water would flow into the main bathroom area.

Great hotel for rugby

We were visiting Lyon for the Rugby World Cup and we’re delighted to discover on arrival that the Ne Zealand All Blacks were also staying. Being a small, intimate hotel, we felt like part of the All Blacks party. Special mention to Martial for great service. Thank you.

Modern clean hotel.Rooms smart and clean but bit soulless. Rooms have only a tiny table and stool (forget using your laptop again desk) and no facilities for making hot Dr. Guestsallowed one bottle of water on day 1 and that's it. Breakfast budget good as it should be for €19 but there is NO other option in the vicinity.

The hotel is far from city center, we should have checked the location more thoroughly and there was lots of graffiti in the walkable area. Metro line was shut down for three days, otherwise it would have been easier to get to city center.

eras tour stay with friends

the weirdest place I have ever stayed. service was sporadic and they are weird with their food service. Sometimes close early sometimes they dont serve room service at all even though it says 24/7. There is no restaurants anywhere around this place either. very industrial feel inside but theoutside gardens are very nice. One of the night desk person was VERY RUDE. dont think I'd stay again. breakfast not great for the money but where else are you going to go?
