Wonderful and fabulous hotel with exceptional staff from the manager of the venue, everything was excellent. The hotel had indeed a marvellous location right next to the historical centre. Moreover, it's near to a hill in the old quarter of Lyon, downtown center and the old town and cathedral of Lyon. I truly enjoyed staying here and recommend to others.

Everything was first-class, had a really comfortable stay of two nights. The room was recently refurbished and well-appointed, had nice size private bathroom. The hotel was in a beautiful location not far from transportation to the airport and the shops and cafes for what we wanted it for.
The staff was poorly trained.

Clean place with swimming pool views and pleasant staff. A laptop-size safe, a mini bar, and central heating available in the classic double room. Marvellous and stunning location in a breathtaking area, really close to a longer more gradual hill, the Gallo-Roman Museum of LyonFourvière, and Tête d'oie Michelin restaurant. Again, not far from Fourviere. Comfortable experience there.

The property was beautiful historical and exceptional with reasonably good staff from the manager of the hotel. Wonderful location - a short way from everywhere we needed. What's more, it was right by Vieux Lyon, the old town and cathedral of Lyon and a hill in the old quarter of Lyon. A gourmet restaurant for dinner was an advantage.
