Very bad, I regret so much staying there, the hotel is in terrible condition, needs full renovation
Pros:

Location is very central

Cons:

It is striking to see that in 2026 in the 2nd city of France Accord still operate a hotel in this condition, it is actually embarrassing. The hotel is very old, decoration is terribly bad, amenities from another century, you feel like you are in a hospital in the corridors, the lobby is like a bad Ibis hotel in a secondary industrial zone, the bathroom are from the 80s, broken tiles. It s honestly very bad, nobody can defend this hotel, anyone with a clear mind will see it the same way I do. Dramatic. Probably the worst choice you can do in Lyon if you are looking for a hotel room. So disappointed that Booking.com even proposes this, I would expect the platform to curate and control the listings.

Severely outdated hotel
Pros:

This hotel doesn’t appear have been renovated since 1970- outdated, worn furniture and colours. Skirting boards and door frames coming off walls, stains and chips on every piece of wooden furniture, carpet wrinkled on the floor, and I upgraded to a suite. No mini bar, the supposedly high end restaurant had about 3 things on the menu- it was empty when I went and no wonder. They had tradies there so hopefully starting a Reno but years overdue. This is the only ugly building in Lyon- and it looks like it needs to be knocked down. Great view of the city from in it- but not looking at it or staying in it.
