Don't let the outside of the hotel put you off, this is a lovely little hotel, with very helpful staff in a superb location for both old Lyon and the city center plaza. Our room (201) was right on the front overlooking the river..... Obviously, we were concerned about potential traffic noise. Absolutely no problem at all with two sets... More

This is a very nice *** hotel that has been recently renovated. The bathrooms were new with a jacuzzi tub, double sinks fresh tile ect. The staff was friendly and helpful. The hallways and carpet were all in good shape. Although on the main road facing the river you heard no traffic as there are double windows. The breakfast buffet... More

We spent four nights at this hotel and had a good deal for a deluxe room and breakfast. The room was large and comfortable. The breakfast was good with a variety of meats, cheeses, fruit and cereals. The only criticism we would have is that the wifi was extremely slow. The staff were very helpful and pleasant. The hotel is... More

I came back to 'Le Phenix' after several years, and I was very pleased to see that the hotel is still the nice cosy hotel I knew in Lyon. Ideally located on the Saone banks, you can just walk to the 'Vieux Lyon' and enjoy the famous 'Bouchon' and walk through the Italian style old city, discovering the 'Traboules' way... More

I have just spent four nights at this hotel travelling alone. I was in a double room (purely because I love a big bed) and it felt like a small apartment rather than a hotel room! The sitting area was massive and the bathroom was completely renovated - the spa bath was AWESOME after a long day of sightseeing. The... More

We chose this hotel thanks to the great reviews on Trip Advisor. The location is perfect in the old town near restaurants, bars and a very nice pub! But the room was very small and the hotel was being redecorated (they were ripping up carpet the second day). Admittedly we went in February which is not tourist season. More disappointing:... More

We were recommended to beautiful Lyon and this hotel by my French friend Manny. It was a fantastic hotel, a good price and right in the Old town of Lyon. We booked online and had a large room with an internal view so it was quiet and comfortable. We had a simple picnic breakfast in our room. Room was nicely... More

I know its a bit late but just wanted to share that this was a very nice place to stay. We reserved one night in early August based on tripadvisor recommendations. And we liked it so much that we reserved for another night later in the month when we were leaving. It is not cheap but reasonable, and using a... More

Stayed here two nights prior to Christmas. Le Phenix has a great location on the river Saone and is handy to Vieux Lyon as well as the Gallo-Roman sites up the hill. A tip - if self-driving from the airport try to reach the hotel from the south of Lyon on the west side of the Saone - we (wrongly)... More
