Located between the rivers and on a secondary pedestrianised shopping street this hotel is well located within walking distance of some of the major sights in Lyon as well as useful bus and metro routes The negatives - apart from a few coat hangers, our room had no clothing storage whatsoever, the bedding was of poor quality, and if you...

Some visitors to France may agree that dealing with the French can sometimes be a bit difficult, especially if both parties do not speak each other's language. This was not the case with our experience with the people at Hotel La Residence. They were warm, very welcoming and helpful. The Hotel itself is in a central location. Minutes walk from... More

Very affordable no frills hotel in a very central location, close to shops and restaurants. It's an ideal hotel for those who require a triple or family room but don't want to incur the cost of staying in a suite or of having to book two rooms. The front desk staff is helpful and friendly, the rooms clean and spacious... More

This hotel hasn't been renovated for a while, but it's clean and comfortable. Rooms are spacious and contain a good-sized writing desk, safe, and mini bar. Free wifi is included. I've stayed here three times and the staff have always been friendly and efficient. Great location. This hotel had everything I need in a hotel at a very reasonable price.... More

The staff is very friendly and helpful. Location in the middle of the pedestrian area, between two subway stations, right in the UNESCO heritage area. The room small, but clean, the bathroom quite big, There is every- thing one really needs, but do not expect fancy stuff. We slept wonderful. Room rate for France very competitive, We will gladly return. More

I have been there many many times and to my sense this is the best deal in Lyon if you don't want to pay too much. Great location, nice people, nice breakfast, perfect for a short stay for shopping. More

Nothing special. Only location is good. Lift is small, breakfast is poor, double room is better for one. But the price is very reasonable and personel is very courteous. If you have luggage better use taxi than metro to get to Rhone express tram to airport. More

This hotel is in the middle of the city center, a couple of subway (metro) stations are very nearby. The streets are filled with shops and a Carrefour mini-market, some bakeries and a Mc Donalds and Subway are only minutes away. I didn't try out the breakfast but it smelled good. Only the beds were a little small (I'm 1.91m)... More
