Property was well-maintained in appearance, cleanliness and amenities. Rooms were modern and clean with room-service, bathrobes, slippers, shower gel, shampoo, conditioner, and toiletries, refrigerator, complimentary waters, crisps, nespresso machine, tea and hot water kettle. Room service was timely and food was excellent! Staff spoke English and were very helpful and professional. Has a salon and spa (we used both services and were very pleased). Location is central and walking distance to major sites, streets, cafes, shops and the main city square. Excellent hotel. Highly recommend.

The staff were excellent. For a top dollar hotel it lacked that bit of luxury. Was a little disappointed to be allocated a room on the first floor as it didn't have the view the higher floors had.

The staff is what makes this hotel a great place to stay. Professional and friendly are the best descriptors for them. The hotel also has a very good location. Don’t let the facade of the building put you off as this is a very nice place to stay while in Lyon.
