This hotel is located near the center of town. We arrived on a French holiday so parking was free on the surrounding streets. Hotel garage is a bit pricey at 16 euros a night. Typically, French don't eat breakfast but we found the buffet very nice with scrambled eggs and sausage. Downtown was about two kilometers walking distance. Hotel staff... More

I stayed at this hotel during the May bank holiday weekend 2012. I stayed with family - we were in 2 twin rooms. The rooms were not huge but were comfortable and the en-suite bathrooms were clean and pleasant. The staff in the hotel were very helpful and spoke good English. The location of the hotel was within walking distance... More

This hotel is badly in need of refurbishment. Everywhere looks tired and shabby. The carpets are worn and the hotel needs a makeover and quickly. The white doors are yellow. Must be 10 years since anything done here and it reflects on the staff to some extent. Front desk were great but the room was dusty. It was not a... More

This hotel is in a perfect location for both shopping and sightseeing. The staff were very helpful and friendly. Lyon is amazing - a great mix of old and new and this hotel is a perfect base to see both. I went with a friend for a girls weekend but would now like to return with my husband as I... More

J'aurais donné une note parfaite si leur menu de restaurant était plus varié mais surtout, surtout moins onéreux et si le wifi avait fonctionné avec mon macbook! Pour tout l'essentiel, j'ai été satisfait. La propreté, la courtoisie du personnel, la localisation etc. J'y demeurerais encore. I would have noted them perfect if the restaurant menu would have been more diversified... More

It started out as a nightmare, but after the first few minutes, there were no additional negative issues. We arrived via the airport express at Gare Part Dieu and took a taxi to the hotel. This was a big mistake. The meter showed just over 8 euro so I offered 10, but the driver said 15 because of luggage. I... More

After a 18 hr flight we arrived in Lyon with not much sleep on the plane we were after some lunch and then to check in. When we first arrived we were greeted warmly and although our room was not quite ready staff were more than happy to store our bags and point us in the direction of a nice... More

We stayed in the best western hotel du pont wilson for the "lights' festival 2011 " . the hotel was a perfect location. Just across the river from Place Bellecour. They have a parking lot but you need to reserve as it is small (15€ a day). In our case they didn't charge us for staying 27 hours instead of... More

We chose the hotel for it's price (cheap) and location (halfway between the old town and the station), and in these respects the hotel was good. Reception was friendly and there were maps of the town provided at the front desk. Some of the things in the room were in need of repair (i.e shower head was no longer attached... More

Walking into the hotel for the first time, I wasn't impressed. These was an unpleasant bathroom smell in the reception area. It seems to be ok in the morning but as the afternoon arrives, the smell comes back. The location was ok: not really right in the middle to it all but close enough to walk to main attractions. Right... More
