Beautiful hotel, with elegant charm and wonderful staff. In the heart of an active part of Lyon with lots of shopping, restaurants and walkability. Small but well-appointed room, comfortable bed, nice shower. Very nice breakfast buffet. Staff was friendly, efficient and welcoming.

Most of the things were fine. Place was clean. Convenient to alot of things. The only complaint I had and communicated to the staff was that there was no hot water in the shower. I was compensated with a free breakfast.

You can't ask for a better location in Lyon. It is right in the heart of the city, easy walking distance to everything.
The staff and hotel are extremely friendly and helpful. Terrific breakfast in the morning.
The facilities themselves have a fun, old-hotel feeling to them, and I enjoyed how it didn't feel like a chain hotel.
Highly recommend a stay!
This isnt a 5 star hotel, but the room was comfortable and clean. Good breakfast. Horrible dinner. They do not have an english language tv chanel, which would have been nice. Staff was fantastic. Always cheerful and helpful.

Absolutely phenomenal staff.
Beautifully updated rooms but still felt classic.
We had the base level room but it was still fairly spacious for European standards.
Bathroom was excellent.
Absolutely would stay again.

the staff is wonderful and the location is perfect.
the primary reason for the rating is the AC - it was almost not working - had to be moved 3 times and even then had only marginally working AC - they are also redoing the hallways and stairwells - so much construction.
