Beautiful location above the old town. The property has a nice restaurant. Be sure to book in advance. It’s a little bit of a walk up hill from the funicular but you go through old Roman ruins. The pool is nice but small.

I wish I had booked a much longer stay in this heavenly hotel.

I don't know where to start ... our stay was close to perfection: an amazing location, an exceptional site full of history and character, which has been revamped and tastefully decorated. The food was delicious, the drinks and wines were tasty, the swimming pool and spa were spaces of beauty and relaxation. I can't but sing the praises of the staff, who were professional, helpful and absolutely lovely. Attention to details and excellence "à la française" were the key words I would use to describe an enchanting stay whose memories I will treasure forever. It deserves a fifth star.

Restaurant food was nice but a little overpriced. 5/6 pieces of tortellini for well over €25

Location was excellent

Wonderful and quiet location with plenty of parking. Beautiful and historic building with all of the modern amenities. Leave the car behind for easy access via funicular to old Lyon for dining.

The faucet of sink, shower and the tub.

It’s located in a beautiful spot. Being converted from a 18th century convent to a 21st century hotel must not have been easy. For instance, my shower, sink only had very hot water which made it unusable. The faucet at the tub was very hot also, so I had to turn it off and on to get usable bath water. The safe did not work either. I think it is still one of the loveliest hotel I have stayed.

We did not have breakfast, that would have added €150.00 for 2 to the bill.

The spa and pool was a lovely part of the stay

Would have loved a gym and larger spa facilities.

The room was a great size and ideal for a family stay.

The former monastery invites us to its fantastic environment. The hotel is located high above Lyon and invites its guests to a beautiful area. The hotel is renovated with its historic and exciting story and kept its character. The rooms are named after celebrities from Lyon.

Easy to find location with free parking and quiet rooms. An easy funicular ride down to Lyon for fabulous restaurants. The building was spectacular and the service excellent.

We would have liked a kettle in our room, although the staff were helpful in bringing us pots of hot water on demand! We were a little surprised by the size of the spa, we thought it might have been a little bigger.

The room was clean and comfortable and the hotel building is very beautiful. The pool and small spa facilities were a bonus.

Stayed in March 2024

The spa was smaller than expected and very crowded as it’s available without reservation and the outside pool wasn’t heated enough.

The room was comfortable and spacious with high quality furniture and the bed was very comfortable. The breakfast was really good with a good value for money and a large diversity of food options. The hotel is beautiful and very calming.

They were slow on refilling breakfast food, so had to wait for all items to eat or go up and get it as soon as you saw them refill. Showers were nice, though it was not regulated temperature as it had spouts of really hot then back to warm.

The layout of the hotel is very interesting and worth it to stay in the building. Close to city center, though must walk up and down a lot of hills. Hotel staff was very nice with 24/7 front desk. Large parking lot and they give you an exit ticket that expires at 1800 on check out date so you can still explore the city. 2 electric charging stations for vehicles.

Olympian tranquility! The location and the view are very nice; you are above the city and extremely quiet. Highly recommended.

The pool was a little cold and there was nothing in the room to indicate what treatments were available at the spa.

The building, jacuzzi and steam rooms, bar and restaurant space were beautifully designed with a calm peaceful atmosphere worthy of its previous life as a convent.

My shower never heated up - which I thought was taking the convent experience to another level! Seriously though, they said it had happened in a couple of rooms and seems like a pretty big oops for a high end hotel. Would have been even worse in the dead of winter. Ordered some pome frites (fries) at the bar and they were so loaded in salt they were inedible. Aside from those things I really loved the place.

Fabulous location for me but be warned it is not for people who want to explore the town but can't manage hills or stairs. The building is wonderful but the rooms are a little 'convent-like.' Very simple and no fridge or kettle but totally adequate other than that. Breakfast is great.

Parking can get busy as limited space

Nothing to complain of, maybe a little pricey.

I was delighted with my huge suite firstly, the spa facilities too, and the restaurant was good, the service just right.

Unfortunately in the second morning no warm water available, probably because of high occupancy that day. Breakfast was very crowed too that morning.

Large suite/bedroom overlooking Lyon. Quiet surrounding. Private parking available. Easy to get to Old Lyon by foot.

We felt the bedroom furnishings were adequate but sparse. The spa was not appealing.

The bed was comfortable, the bathroom was good. Beautiful building and conversion.

Location made it difficult to walk to hotel from town.

Beautiful hotel.’stylish public areas. Clean and comfortable bedrooms. Quiet location. Good public transport links.,Great restaurant.

We were there in winter so the outdoors pool was closed. The indoor spa area was quite small and had a very limited selection of activities.

Location is beautiful, old covent on top of a steep hill.
