Lyon hotels in Vieux Lyon - Saint-Irénée

It is really difficult to find if you arrive by car, clearer instructions required in advance. We also thought that the superior room we had was very small and very dark and the windows overlooked a walkway!

The hotel is well located. The large open halls are beautiful. n some ways it is a strange hotel. Is it a spa-hotel? No not really.

Location in Vieux Lyon. Hotel does not live up to the expectations raised on the web-site. Our room did not have the level of comfort that one would expect for a four star hotel. Charging 50 euro's for breakfast is expensive.

The concierge, Gerard, is a wonderful asset to the hotel. All staff were very friendly [ which is essential ] and efficient. The room is very compact and the mezzanine bedroom very hot and stuffy with inadequate air-conditioning.

The location of the hotel was very good. The secure parking excelen.t The theme of the school was a reasonable idea but it was taken to a level where I felt it nterfered with comfort.

The hotel has a lovely atmosphere, and is in a great location.The bathroom was nice and spacious, and I loved the balcony which stretched over both the bedroom and the bathroom. The fridge on each floor with the complimentary drinks in it was a nice touch. It's a bit overpriced, the bedroom was barely big enough for the 2 of us and our small bags. Our room was not cleaned on our last night, even though the staff were next to our room when we left that day.

Great location, walk to everything, public transport just next door (tram), new bar next door by the same owners. Nice terrace garden. I've stayed several times and have to say I was disappointed this time. The hotel is looking dirty and seriously needs a re-paint! Marks and stains everywhere on the walls (most of the rooms are 100% white so very noticable) and there was severe water damage in the bathroom, including peeling paint and mold. No drinks in the frige like the old days. Hotel simply not as nice as it used to be a few years back, feeling run down. Breakfast staff a bit unfriendly, Internet didn't work well, matress could be replaced... Overall too expensive for what you get.

Hotel staff attitude was friendly and helpful. The design was nice and different. Like the idea of complimentary soft drinks, very thoughtful.

Helpful staff Tobacco smell in room. Although non-smoking, there weren't any notices in the room, and there was in fact an ashtray in the bathroom

Friendly staff, very comfortable, clean room. It was close to the centre of Lyon.

Quiet room and clean but I would not go so far as to call it deluxe Reception staff were not very knowledgeable about local transportation offers.

The reception and friendliness of the staff and the size of the room and its quietness.

Good location in Lyon Vieux. Practical garage. Nice spacious room with view on the river. The breakfast could have been better.

A cosy room, quiet, with a view of the river, central location I did not know that there is such a problem with parking in the area. The reception clerk was very not helpful to find a solution (give me an advise where I can park my car), only saying that I had to book parking in advance. I would appreciate if he could direct me somewhere, but the attitude was - "don't bother me, it is your problem".

Outstanding location, charming restoration and decoration, the Asian woman in Reception evenings was very efficient and helpful. Maintenance of the facility seems to be an issue, unfortunately. Our room was only superficially clean. The was a loud noise of running water in the toilet. The young man in Reception during the day seemed relatively uninterested, in the noise and just about everything else. The 18euro breakfast is not worth it.

We stayed at an apartment next to the hotel which was reasonably priced, right in the old city center. They have a car park very near the hotel.

the location it needed a bit of updating..the room was the same as last time we stayed 7 years ago...mattress hard, lights not working, tatty blinds.

We had booked an apartment located in an annexe but on arrival were offered an upgrade to a junior suite serviced by a lift for an extra 4 Euros, which represented excellent value given the location. The suite was quite dark as it was painted in a deep shade of rosy red and there was impact damage to walls in both sitting area and the bathroom which suggested a lack of care.

We were given one of their best rooms which was extraordinary, large and impressive with antique furniture - matching silk hung walls, curtains and bed spread - modern but eccentric bathroom with good sized bath. The service from a young staff was friendly and efficient. Only part of the building had a lift. If you dont like 55 steps up of various ages dont book the above room!

The hotel is set in a Renaissance building which is unusual. Very good value for money for a hotel in Lyon and in this area. We were staying on the first floor and it was very noisy. The type of building has an inner courtyard which make any sound echoing. The heating system must be pretty old too as the pipes were banging a good part of the night. Maybe if you stay in the upper floors, there might be less noise.

were not offered room on lower flors

Located in the historical part of the city, authentic ancient place, with the real spirit of the old city No elevator, not very clean old staircases.

Central location, friendly staff, simple but comfortable room It was under renovation but this is inevitable at certain times
