Perfect location, service & staff. Excellent breakfast. The only thing that wasn’t perfect was the bath shower. The partial shower door leaked all over the floor. Not a good setup.

We are a senior couple visiting Lyon for the first time. The hotel is well located for walking to Lyon old town, breakfast is good and the staff helpful. The room is very small and there is hardly any space for luggage. The room ventilation is inadequate and we can sometimes smell cigarette smoking.

The hotel itself is nice, but they advertised to have AC. Either it's broken or it's just a ventilation system, even when temperature outside was 16C, the room was hot and humid, and windows cannot be opened. The staff changed my room once, for a room in a lower floor with less sun light, it was less hot, but still far from AC confort.

Great Mercure on the Presqu'ile. The location could not be better. The staff are a delight. Our Prestige room number 802, a corner room on the top floor had great views, including of the river and beautiful buildings. The lobby bar is delightful, open many, may hours, a comfortable meeting and relaxing place . The Bartender was able to recommend great restaurants at reasonable prices. The location could not be better for shopping, the largest museum in Lyon, access to restaurants, to the Tourist Bureau, in short, the central location was all we could ask, the room was delightful at a reasonable price, the service was excellent and informed, we travel a lot and count not ask for more at such a reasonable price, star-quality location, informed and gracious staff, and lobby lounge with a bartender who knew his wines and had just picked the wines for the summer season. A star hotel in every way.

Diaappointing for the price

Great location within walking distance of all major sights. Room was basic and no air-conditioning was available. Would put it on a par with Premier Inn in the UK. Bed was large and comfortable, fridge available and basic bathroom with shower. All very functional but not luxury at all! Paper cups and no water. Cleaner very good. Fresh towels when required. We were on 8th floor and it was very noisy with loud traffic and people at street level. Staff all very pleasant but in our view the hotel is overpriced. Won't be returning.

Lovely hotel with a very cold bathroom

We really liked the hotel and would stay again. The room was big, the bed comfortable and the linens nice and cozy. It was very cold in Lyon when we were there and our only negative comment about the room is the bathroom was like an arctic climate zone! When you ran the shower it would heat up but if you went into the bathroom in the middle of the night - it was a cold plunge! Otherwise, the hotel was terrific. Staff super friendly. Espresso machine and wonderful tea selection in the room. Free (basic) mini bar and very convenient to all locations in Lyon. Even with the cold bathroom we enjoyed our stay and would return.
