Service on arrival was first class, staff were very helpful and welcoming, receptionist recommended a fantastic restaurant to eat and is was fab. The room was great,clean and comfortable. The only annoying thing in most of these hotels is no kettle!! Oh and small but that is France you learn to accept it.

We stayed here in May 2011 and really enjoyed it. We got a great deal, and the price included breakfast every day. It's right in the main district and a short walk from the Perrache train station and close to metro, etc. The rooms are small, but we stayed in Lyon for a week and only used it as a... More

This is a basic hotel in an old building. Rooms are small but clean. My bathroom was recently totally renovated and was great. This is of course a two star hotel, do not expect great luxury over here, but for its category it is perfectly fit. It is located at <5 minutes from Perache, with easy tram, metro and train... More

We chose this hotel partly because it had been recommended in the Lonely Planet guide, and partly out of convenience, as it is very close to Perrache train station.

The rooms themselves are small and simple, though clean. Breakfast is continental but also fairly priced. There are several good restaurants within a 15 minute walk and Brasserie Georges is... More

We stayed for two nights at the Hotel du Simplon in Lyon in early September. The hotel is well located near to one of the central stations but if you are coming by car - bring your GPS or smartphone because the one way system is difficult to negotiate! The hotel has a parking garage but you should request a... More

I stayed at this hotel during a trip to Lyon in August. I must say that I found the negative reviews posted here to be simply untrue. Location: The hotel is very close to Perrache train station. It is on Place Carnot and walking distance to shopping street Rue de Victor Hugo, Bellecour, Cordillere and even Vieux Lyon. We walked... More

I stayed here Sunday, July 1st on the first floor. Over the next several days, bed bug bites began appearing on my torso and legs. It was definitely from staying here one night as none of the other members of my party had any problems, including those who shared a bed with me in the other hotel. The location isn't... More
