10/10 Exceptional

What an awesome hotel! It is right in the middle of Old Lyon so everything was in walking distance or easy to hop on a bus or train to go further. We were able to get two rooms that were side by side and it was great for our family of five to be close with enough room for all of us.

Roof terrace in old Lyon

We had 4 nights here and were very happy with our stay. Rooms are comfortable (with a/c) and have a kettle but no mini-fridge. The decor in the hotel is interesting as it was apparently an old school, so there are desks etc. A real plus is the roof terrace with many plants---we could sit there in the evening and relax. Location is great---very close to a bus stop and to old Lyon and its many shops and eating places.
