First we had to park and a place just in front of the hotel BUT as we chose a wrong line we had to go around and get back( almost one hour at 5 p.m.. ) then we got the suitcases and a long stairs. Uff! The hotel gave me a key that wasn't opening the room and they had... More

I just spent 10 nights at this hotel. It is my fifth stay and it has become a home away from home. The rooms/bathrooms have been renovated and are very nice. The only thing missing is a make up mirror. Any requests I had the hotel was very accomodating. No iron in the room but you can borrow one. I... More

This hotel is perfectly located in Lyon in a quiet, safe, little area next to Saone River - (where on Sunday mornings they hold the most delightful farmer's market - only a block from the hotel.) Anyhoo, the hotel is average - nice with a nice entrance and lobby but overall, nothing special - but very very clean, nice bathrooms... More

Excellent location in the very center of Lyon. Cozy, recently refurbished and well kept double rooms in French style with all amenities, very good beds. Separate bathroom and toilet, very clean and well lit. Surprisingly not enough pressure on the shower in the bathroom - the reason being a tap put up too low, so that the hose was partly... More

Our room was quiet and we slept very well, but it was very small. Short walk to major tourist attractions and many restaurants is a plus. However, it was just not really up to a standard I'd expect for the price- room size, tired bathroom fittings, very plain decor which felt more cheap motel than city hotel.

This was our second visit to the hotel having stayed for 2 nights back in 2006. As we were touring France by car we wanted somewhere central with parking. As another reviewer has mentioned there is an underground car park at Place Celestines. Yes it is expensive (we incurred a 42 Euro charge) but it's the cleanest public car park... More

This is a very good hotel. The staff did a great job and were very friendly and helpful! The rooms are fairly small but clean and well-decorated. The central location is good for exploring the area, once you've managed to master the city's lay-out. The only real negative to this hotel is parking. Unless one is very fortunate, the only... More

For budget concious travellers, the Hotel Des Artistes is a good option without having to go to a hostel. The foyer is quite elegant in an old-timey way, though our room was quite simple, no frills with an ensuite. Hotel staff could be a little friendlier, and there was no hotel room safe. Location wise it's about a 10 minute... More
