Rooms very clean, does have an elevator, they have prepaid parking you can reserve ahead of time. Otherwise very difficult to find parking on the street, beautiful view from hotel patio over the city
The hotel location was away from the tourist area but close enough to visit key places. Metro station 5mins walk from the hotel. Loved the outside bar and the view over the city. Breakfast a little disappointing - no hot options and overall quality of food could be improved. Bed mattress was a little hard! Staff throughout the hotel were friendly and helpful.
We had a great stay! The staff were incredibly welcoming, friendly, and accommodating throughout our visit, making us feel right at home.
The hotel is located at the top of a hill, so there is a bit of a walk, but the beautiful views are well worth it. The outdoor bar quickly became one of our favorite spots—it was lively most evenings and had an amazing view over the city.
Our room was spacious, clean, and very comfortable. We really enjoyed our stay and would happily recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Lyon.
Lovely hotel in great setting. It is a steep climb back up to hotel when visiting Viuex Lyon on foot but best way to get around. Plenty of options for food and drink nearby. Only downside at present is getting luggage to and from hotel whilst roadworks are being carried out but this is temporary
Beautiful hotel and comfortable room. Be aware that there is quite a steep hill if walking to the hotel which may be difficult for people with mobility issues.
Wonderful view of the city, and a great outdoor area to hang out! They also gave us fantastic restaurant recommendations. If you are arriving by car, parking is a bit difficult, but there is a large underground parking structure about 5-10 minutes' walk away. Large spacious rooms also.
Words do not do this hotel justice. The view from this 16th Century Fort, that has full, modern amenities, was beautiful.
The courtyard that houses a cocktail & wine bar, along with a local food truck, was a perfect way to finish the day after walking throughout Lyon. The staff was extremely helpful, and the breakfast was a lovely spread of local ingredients. There is a beautiful, outdoor breakfast area, that overlooks the Rhone river valley.
Excellent, excellent and beautifully unexpected!
Absolutely everything about the hotel was amazing. Size of the room, ambient, patio , location , staff- top notch . I Noelle and Noah(?) were great . It is beautiful !
It is up on a but that is what made it amazing !
It felt like a holiday where you were both in a vibrant city and a peaceful village at the same time. Stunning views, an impeccably clean hotel, genuine warmth everywhere, and a breakfast experience with a richness and flavor you rarely come across, even in the finest hotels.
Great space for our family. Old building but brand new modern hotel. Wonderful staff. The breakfast could use help as they seem short staffed but overall a great place to stay.
Location is in a hill. The problem that we had is that they arranged our taxi to the train station and it charged us 35€ without a taxi meter when an app Taxi would have charged us less than half!
Perfect location among artsy and understated residential area. Bus C6 takes you directly from Lyon Train Station to the bottom hill where the hotel, an ancient fortress, is on top of the hill overlooking the river and Lyon. A nice 15 minute flat road or a quick shortcut stairs walk to the hotel. I came a couple of hours early and the staff put my luggage in storage and even found a vase for my 1 single rose (a Mother’s Day gift). There are excellent family run French restaurants and bakeries within 2 minute walking distance from the hotel. Neighborhood near the river bank has more boutique shops, restaurants and eateries. I used the 2 extra hours walked to/back from the most famous church. Night having a sip at hotel’s bar with river and city view is priceless. Truly a luxurious hotel, location, facilities and services/staffs.

Yes, the room was spotless and easy to navigate, even the shower operation did not require an advanced degree in aquatic engineering. I liked the high ceilings and decor, space allotment and the bedding was flawless, both in linens and pillow/cover quality.
regarding staff: welcome was kind and efficient on Feb. 12.'26. I had a good impression and was glad to have arrived.
The checkout at 6: am on Feb. 14.'26 was less so.
The young men on duty was friendly enough but had no concept of helping a senior guest with luggage.
I managed the front stairs of the hotel, in the rain with some difficulty as I wanted to hold on to the railing as well.
This young attendant might appreciate a little more training in becoming aware of how he could enjoy his duties more and be better remembered by you guests, -- especially at the occasion of a departure in rain. -
No hard feelings, I am glad to return at another time and will recommend your hotel to friends and family.
Lastly: I think I left a phone dadptor and a line in my room
# 105. If you found it please keep it with my name, I will have it picked up by a friend.
With many thanks and best wishes for you and the Hotel,

Très bel hôtel, idéalement situé sur les hauteurs de Lyon. L’endroit est très calme et offre une magnifique vue sur la ville. Nous avons beaucoup apprécié notre séjour.
Une très belle adresse à Lyon que nous recommandons sans hésiter
Prachtig gerenoveerd gebouw met uitzicht over de stad. Benedenstad is op loopafstand. Hotel heeft ook mogelijkheid tot parkeren op zo’n 5 min lopen van hotel. Daarvoor kan bagage bij het hotel gedropt worden. Daarvoor is parkeerruimte. Bij het hotel is een gezellige buitenbar (openbaar toegankelijk) en ontbijt is op een afgezonderd terras voor de gasten. Beide met uitzicht over de stad. De kamers zijn ruim, schoon en goed onderhouden. Personeel was ook vriendelijk tegen onze hond, die zelfs welkom was in de ontbijtzaal
La chambre était impeccable. Le personnel de l'hôtel était très aimable et attentif. La climatisation de l'hôtel était la bienvenue par 38 degrés extérieurs.
Situé à quelques minutes du métro et à une quinzaine de minutes de l'hôtel de ville à pied (dans le sens hotel centre ville, en descente), l'hôtel nous a permis un très agréable séjour.
