This is a lovely hotel. Just the place we needed for a good nights sleep after a long flight from Australia. The bed was exceptionally comfortable. There is free parking and wifi and it's right across the road from the tourist office. We could walk easily to all the sights and lovely restaurants.

My friends booked into this hotel for one night recently after leaving the Loire Valley a day early. All seven of us were totally wowed by this hotel. We were able to get a reasonable price through Expedia though it is an expensive hotel, even with a deal. Having said that, it is a delightful hotel with all the amenities... More

Hotel Le Royal was truly high in quality in all respects. Indeed, it was exceptional. The room was extremely spacious with a fantastic bed, Lighting was excellent, and we had a splendid view from our window. This classy accommodation provided a massive bathroom with shower and a large bath. A lift provided access to the rooms. The staff were friendly,... More

Just perfect for us, situated in the lovely Bellecour, gorgeous views from our elegant round suite, deliciously comfortable beds, discreet friendly staff. Would go again in a heartbeat. Close to the riverside markets on the weekend. A jug would be a nice addition to the rooms and if i was being picky i'd say the furniture is not as beautiful... More

This is a beautiful hotel that has had a bit of an identity crisis. For my last night in France after a three week vacation, I wanted an old world hotel that reflected very French decor. Some where in the late 90's some one went shopping at Ikea. So we have a mix of periods that don't meld together. Now... More

Stayed here a couple of times during the last years, and satisfied both times. Good bed, good size on rooms, and nice view. Also perfect location in the middle of Lyon, close to restaurants, just a couple of stops from Perrache railway station, and good connection to the airport through Rhone Express and metro line A. I have previously stayed... More

Lyon as a city was a surprise in that I didn't know much about it and thought it was lovely. This hotel only makes it nicer. With a superb, central location right on the Place Bellecour, it's near shopping, the old city, the river and more. The hotel is just charming and beautiful with the kind of decor one dreams... More
