The staff here is amazing! They are so kind and helpful. Also, the hotel is perfectly situated. It is across from a wonderful plaza, steps from the metro, steps from quality shopping including the arts and antique district and centrally located to make walking anywhere you would want to go, just a few minutes away. The rooms are adorable and I loved the attention to detail. I am one who usually likes to try different places when I visit a city but next time I come to Lyon, I will definitely stay here again. It could not be more perfect!

Very nice hotel, great location, good breakfast, friendly & helpful staff. Just a suggestion for the hotel - the room lighting was very dark (26) - would suggest more lights/brighter lightbulbs.

This hotel is fantastic. My girlfriend and I stayed here during her birthday and the hospitality was among the best of any of the hotels in the world we have stayed at. Would highly recommend this hotel to anyone staying in Lyon and will recommend to any of my friends or family visiting Lyon in the future

Lyon Trip 2024

If you are visiting Lyon, we would thoroughly recommend this super hotel. Everywhere is so different from the usual 'hotel are us' type of hotels you find worldwide. Staff were excellent and very helpful. Location is very central immediately beside Bellecour Square, so good access to the parts of the city you may wish to explore. Only downsides I can think of is that there is no elevator that reaches the ground floor. Access is by a remotely operated locked door but you have to climb one flight of stairs, with any luggage you may have, before reaching reception on the 1st floor. From there, you do have an elevator to take you to most of the rooms. Breakfast was a delight - food was excellent and the breakfast room is just lovely. Once again, would recommend and will return on any future visit to Lyon.
