I booked this hotel as I thought it was close to all the sights of Lyon. In hindsight, I should have stayed closer to the old town. Having said that, most sites are around 30-40 minutes walk away or can be reached by tram or metro.
The hotel itself is nice, albeit a bit rustic. When I arrived to my room, it was hideously hot. The air con wasn’t working, despite being ‘on’. I told the hotel staff and they offered for me to switch rooms if it didn’t work. I thought this was nice of them but in the end, they did fix it and I stayed in my assigned room.
The carpet was stained and the bathroom felt like there was no air; however, the rest of the room was fine. The bed was really comfy as was the pillow.
Staff were helpful with answering all my questions and generally very friendly.
If you are ok to enjoy walks to get to the sites, then this is a nice place to stay.
There is also a real sense of eco-friendliness in the hotel, which is great to see.
