Hôtel bien situé, à 5minutes du métro et à une station du vieux Lyon. La chambre est confortable avec une excellente literie.

Hôtel avec parking à quelques minutes de Bellecour

Pros: Propreté et et confort des chambres. Calme. Proximité du métro Gorge de Loup (10 min de Bellecour de porte à porte)
Location: rien à voir de particulier dans ce quartier
Nous avons choisi cet hôtel pour sa situation et son parking qui permettent de passer un week-end à Lyon en étant à quelques minutes du centre en métro en s'affranchissant des tarifs de parking prohibitifs pratiqués à Lyon. Nous avons été agréablement surpris par le confort des chambres.

Bel hotel, mais 2 problemes

Pros: état propreté, neuf, et pas trop cher.
Cons: odeur
Un hotel en bon état et vraiment très propre. Très neuf, et pas trop cher. Malheureusement, une odeur d'égout dans la premiere chambre. La même odeur dans la salle de bain de la seconde chambre. Peut etre était ce passager ? Peut etre est ce dû aux travaux récents ? Et manque de chance, une TV qui s allume toute seule dans la nuit, alors que le personnel nous a affirmé que le mode réveil des TV était inactivé... Peut etre un manque de chance pour nous, mais une nuit loin d 'être excellente.
