Really good location, 10 mins walk to the train station. Close to one restaurant, bars and super market. The room that we had was very spacious, and the bed was comfortable.
Very convenient location for anyone who wants to visit the old town but wishes to stay at a quieter area and newer hotel. The ground floor common room is great with free drinks and snacks, making it a perfect space for social and study/business.
We stayed at a double room in the Sofitel in Lyon for a total of 3 nights in the summer of 2023.
The hotel is located just a few streets from the Place Bellecour which is one of the main squares in Lyon. It is also about 5 minutes away from many cafes, bistros and a large supermarket (Monop’) near Place Bellecour.
The room itself was a fairly standard double room (approximately 20 square metres). The interior and furnishings of the hotel look a bit dated but they were fine and did not matter in any material way. The minibar is complimentary and it is restocked daily with bottled water (still and sparkling), fruit juice, coca cola, and dried fruits and nuts.
The bed was nice and comfortable and the pillows were firm. Our only complaint was that the air conditioning was not very consistent and it would turn off in the middle of the night. It is not an issue if you are staying here in the winter but it made it difficult to sleep at night in the summer.
The staff were all very nice and pleasant. The concierge was especially friendly and he helped us to store our bags and arrange for a taxi to the train station on our last day.
We paid approximately EUR250 a night and we thought it was worth the price.
I loved the hotel service and staff, they really go above and beyond. The location is a bit far from the city but there is a bus that takes u to city centre in 15 minutes. The room was spacious and clean, would recommend!
CColombier.KNous sommes venue pour le week ends de Pâques avec ma copine nous avons était super bien accueilli, la chambre que nous avons eu était vraiment parfaite très belle et très propre. Aucun regret sur cette hôtel je le conseil fortement pour le prix il est parfait. Le petit déjeuner très bon avec des produit maison et frais.
ผผู้เข้าพักExtremely nice and helpful staff. Clean facilities. Beds in dorms feel extremely private and each one has a light, a USB port and an outlet. Large lockers for each bed. Location is great, but on top of a steep hill, which makes carrying heavy luggage a bit strenuous. Kitchen facilities are good but limited and can get crowded very quickly.
ผผู้เข้าพักI rarely leave negative reviews, but this booking was very disappointing and quite uncomfortable. Although the location was good and the room was clean, we did not look forward to returning to the hotel each night and I would not consider staying here again. The room felt dark and claustrophobic and did not even have drawers big enough to put clothes in. For those wanting to work at the little desk, the chair and limited electricity outlets would have made it very difficult. Although we chose not to have the breakfast, the patio seemed nice. The lobby barely had space to stand in. Although I have learned that the French star system is quite basic, note that in many parts of the world, this would never be considered a four star hotel.
MMarcia GattoAmazing view, but a bit of a trek if you walk up the hill on foot. The beds are super comfy, larger, and wider than usual. Had a very good nap after a long trip and before tackling the city by night and on foot: lively and safe. Toitels and shower rooms may benefit from a bit of TLC :)
Will be back.
AAudrey Claire GenevieveThe experience is not bad but not what I would expect from a 4 stars hotel. People working in the hotel are very nice, which is a big +. However, the cleanliness is so so in the room. There was a night I didn’t have hot water for shower for some reason. The breakfast is okay but I believe 17€ is a bit overpriced for what it is. Very nice service from the ladies there though. The gym isn’t a gym, it has no dumbbells, only one or two cardio machine and a musculation machine supposed to do everything but not very great. I would still recommend it, just don’t expect a 4 stars hotel as you would imagine it.
JJVermathe budget hotel that offers everything you could want or need during your stay.
Next to centre city and train/bus stations are available just around the corner.
