Stayed one night because I couldn't bear it any more. The entire hotel was rundown. The staff was rude. My bathroom was dirty. This should be a 2 star establishment. Maybe 30 years ago it was a 4 star but they have done nothing to it since. more

The hotel is located in a good part of Lyon - a short walk to great restaurants, metro and historic areas - rooms are small but adequate, and the a/c worked well on a very hot day. Try to get a room with a view - the hotel is right on the river. The buffet breakfast was good, with fresh... more

I stayed 3 nights at the Boscolo Grand Hotel, and I was a little worried after reading some of the reviews. I had a great time. It's true that I was given an executive room on arrival on the top floor, overlooking the river. The room and bet were huge. Maybe a little dated, but spotlessly clean. The hotel has... more

This is a very well located hotel with some nice staff, thats all the good stuff. Comparing it to other 4* hotels, its awful. I dont think I will stay here again. Breakfast is ok, rooms are outdated, needs refurbishing. more

Stayed here for 3 nights. Didnt eat at the hotel. The staff were a mixed bag indifferent, late welcome but others on duty and on check out were helpful and friendly. The hotel is centrally located and relatively well priced against the competition. I do consider Lyon poorly served for quality hotels given the size of the city. I also... more

We (three couples) found the hotel to be of a very good standard, all three rooms were very clean and well decorated. Cannot understand all the bad reviews that I read on TA. Breakfast was good (2 types of ham, 2 types of cheese, hot egg and sausages plenty of real fruit juices, bread, fruit, yoghurts and all in a... more

I was just in Lyon for a 2 day visit after skiing in the alps. The entrance to the Grand Hotel was pretty as was the reception area and there was a pretty good breakfast included. However, the rooms are the opposite. The walls in our "deluxe room" were cracked and peeling. In the bathroom, the tiles were cracked and... more

I must say that the location of hotel boscolo was excellent - well within walking distance to most major sites and shopping. The staff were efficient but disinterested and poorly informed. I was given wrong directions to my conference and a bus number to take that did not exist. Met several other people there who had the same experience. The... more

Be warned, DO NOT expect a "4 star experience" at the Boscolo Grand Hotel, Lyon. The ground floor reception with its gleaming marble, glass and chrome, bodes well for a stay in a luxurious four star hotel. However, that's where any hint of oppulence ends. This Boscolo may have been 4 star standard in the seventies or eighties, but certainly... more
