The hotel's location is right in the city center, allowing for easy access to many attractions. While the rooms lacked soundproofing and showed signs of wear and tear, they were quiet at night. The service was exceptional with friendly and helpful staff. The dining options were average for the price range, but the location was convenient for exploring Lyon and enjoying morning runs along the Saone river.

The hotel had clean, good-sized rooms with large beds and well-equipped bathrooms perfect for our one-night stay, but the room size was a bit small, and the half-floor location meant the lift didn't reach it. Despite not being a luxurious 'Grand Hotel' room, the stay was comfortable overall.
