Very pleasant overall
Pros:

Great location but the property is a bit tired, however to be fair they are about to go through a room renovation. so hopefully that will bring the rooms up to a more pleasant standard

Cons:

All good to be honest, the rooms as I stated before were a bit tired and in need of a refresh.

Perfekt für einen weekend stop!
Pros:

Die Lage ist top. Mittendrin ! Die Qualität der Betten und die Isolation innerhalb des Hotels. Man hört nichts! Super! Charme des Hotels!

Cons:

Das Hotel ist im Laufe der Zeit nun etwas in die Jahre gekommen und hat Renovationsbedarf. Die Grösse der Halle, bzw. Reception ist viel zu klein!

Una pena no poder disfrutarlo más días!
Pros:

Me gustó mucho el propio edificio y su decoración interior, la comodidad y amplitud de la habitación, el desayuno muy completo, con mucha variedad para elegir, la ubicación pero, sobre todo, el personal muy atento y agradable. Muy recomendable.

Do not stay here until the remodel is completed
Pros:

We stayed at this hotel for 3 nights as a family of four, we booked 2 rooms. The hotel deserves 2 stars for the location and the air conditioning working well during a heat wave. The location is central to most everything in Lyon and we never had to take an Uber or Taxi.

The hotel is very worn and dated. It is severe need of repair and updating. There is a remodel/refresh planned for 2027. That did not help our visit in June of 2026.

One of our rooms smelled very musty. There are cracks, chips, stains, general grittiness everywhere you look. We never had hot water for a shower, mildly warm was the normal temperature. See the attached pictures.

Comfortable stay with friendly staff and a perfect location
Pros:

I had a very enjoyable stay. The location is excellent, the staff are very friendly and welcoming, and my room was comfortable and clean. While some areas of the property, particularly the bathrooms, are beginning to show their age, this did not significantly affect my stay. The service and overall atmosphere made it a very pleasant experience. I enjoyed my time here enough that I have already booked my next stay later this year and look forward to returning.

Super 5 Star Hôtel
Pros:

Super 5 star hotel. It’s all about the staff and they were great! Nothing is too much trouble. We felt looked after…

Cons:

The only disappointment was the bar. They couldn’t make the cocktail we wanted, the gin and tonic was bizarre… overall not the level of bar expected in a 5 star hotel. But so much choice outside the hotel it didn’t really matter…
