Proximity to Roman amphitheatre

Historic building and gourmet food - very comfortable family rooms

Stayed in August 2023

The beds are a bit small (narrow)

Almost every thing is excellent, beautiful and unique. A very special experience.

The weather.

We LOVED the stunning art on show in the hotel and the beautiful interiors. We arrived after a 16 hour drive from London, exhausted with two tired, hot dogs. The hotel had preprared dog bows, treats and dog blanket - the cutest. The hotel managed to squeeze us in for last orders in the restaurant and the food was excellent, service brilliant and we had drinks in the cloisters courtyard afterwards. Followed by a walk under the stars and a peak over the hotel's garden wall across the beautiful city of Lyon. In the morning I discovered Roman ruins next to the hotel in the form of an old amphitheatre and the Notre Dame Cathedral which has to be one of the most beautiful I have seen.

Pool. Lobby

The beds were short and narrow. For tall people, the feet sticks out! We had no place to dry our pool towels so adding a place to hang them would be good. It surprised me that the hotel reserved a huge amount on my credit card upon arrival, be aware that they reserve an additional 100 euro per day for potential consumption that you may have during your stay (drinks, dinner etc).

Lovely place to stay for a real holiday. Beautiful building with courtyard where you can have excellent breakfast/dinner. Swimming pool (shape of a swimming lane) in the garden with chairs to sit and bar service. Room had separate shower room and WC. The area is touristy due to closeness of historical sites, but the hotel is inside a walled garden and very calm. Walking distance to funicular going to old town, to bus stops and lovely restaurant Bulle overlooking the city.

Nothing to report

It was the perfect place to see the city.

Very good breakfast

Stayed in September 2023

Rooms were basic - I stayed in 2 rooms whilst I was there. First room didn’t have a kettle or tea making facilities. Quite surprising at the cost! It was very basic. Second room on second floor was very hot as the air con was in the hallway and didn’t even reach the bedroom!! Complete design fault. Staff were helpful and friendly. It was very clean. Super pool area and spa. Didn’t eat at hotel so can’t comment.

Beautiful location out of the city but walking distance, pool and spa area were great. Lovely hotel architecturally.

It was all good

The pool and spa facilities were much better than expected. The breakfast outside was delicious and the staff exceptional. We loved the individuality of the rooms with pictures of famous French people on the doors.

Just brilliant!

Would rather have stayed on the 1 st floor with a room with higher ceiling. 2nd floor rooms although very nice we’re slightly to hot.

We loved the location and building being set in a quiet part of Lyon. The hotel has been beautifully decorated with slightly more retro touches which we liked. The spa facility was very much welcomed after a busy day exploring Lyon. We really enjoyed the pool even during the heavy rain. Breakfast was very good too and actually good value for money. Only point I would raise the scrambled eggs could be less runny. We opt for other things instead so did not have any eggs in the end with plenty of other options on offer. Rooms on the 2 floor slightly too hot so would recommend to request a room on the first floor instead with higher ceiling. Overall experience was a pleasant one and would come back again.

We felt the staff had unfortunately decreased the quality of our stay. Some requests at the restaurant were fulfilled after several reminders, a meal served cold after the nice young man had forgotten about it over 15 minutes, etc. Last day at checkout they made a huge exception for us to stay next to the pool for a couple extra hours and have a lengthy explanation about how it would otherwise get crowded. Well, I was the one and only person at the pool the whole time, just negatively impressed with their initial « no » to this request that is standard practice elsewhere. Drop this rule that will always hold back client satisfaction especially as there is no real valid reason behind.

Amazing breakfast, charming minimalist rooms, impressive conserved and respected interiors of the building. I absolutely loved the atmosphere.

Beautiful lobby and the garden. Swimming pool and spa are also great! Hotel staffs are fluent in English.

Stayed in August 2023

Some staff had limited knowledge of what was available. This may also have been due to language barrier

Great location overlooking the city.

The pool is so busy at the weekend it is unpleasant, no where near enough seating. The rooms are very basic for the price and a 4* rating. Our air con was pretty rubbish as was the tv remote. Everything is very expensive in the hotel and parking was so overpriced. We asked if they could help us celebrate as we got engaged a day before our arrival, was disappointed by the response offering very little and asking for an extra €50 for it. Wouldn’t return.

Building is beautiful and the pool area was great during the week. Food was delicious in the restaurant but very expensive.

A little bit far outside of the city but it’s quite accessible via escooter

Pool was wonderful. Area is lovely and quiet.

Staff did not book dinner reservation at external restaurant as requested.

Incredible reception. Quiet, corner room with tall ceilings, with excellent shower and AC. Broad breakfast selection. Liked situation at top of hill; allowed for views and space. Stroll to funicular or lovely (steep) walk into old town.

Price for parking is very high at 17€ per night and if you don’t stay at the hotel the rate is 12€ per day for the same parking space, but since we were staying we had to pay the per night price. No explanation was given why a 24h per night price was different to a 24h per day price. Bookings says all taxes and fees are included but you need to add 2.5€ city tax per guest per night.

Location and spa access are the best things about the place, the building also looks very nice.

Room is basic - not standard of a four state hotel. Cleaning staff incredibly loud in the mornings and woke us up every morning with noise. Pool was okay - too crammed. Breakfast was chaos, too busy and food set up way to close to seating area so everyone was on top of eachother, okay variety - decided it was not worth the money for the following morning.

The building is stunning, we loved eating outside in the courtyard! The bar has a fantastic cocktail menu and we enjoyed the restaurant. Staff in restaurant very attentive and lovely! Staff at check in desk lovely and attentive!
