I spent two nights in the hotel in a twin bed room. The hotel is near the univeristy and the park of the tete d'or (10 min walking). The room and the bed are both comfortable, with a TV with different channels. However, only a few foreign TV channels are set. The bathroom is big and nicely stuffed. The breakfast... More

This is certainly not a hotel for a longer stay. There is not much around it and the hotel itself is a bit dated. But it has EVERYTHING for a short stay on a longer trip to somewhere else. It's also in a short enough driving distance to Lyon's old town to see something if you have time. What I... More

I have just stayed my first night of 5 at this hotel and I'm very tempted to see whether its possible to change hotels after 1 night! I arrived yesterday to a hotel that looks like a block of council flats in the middle of a council estate. Dont expect lots to do nearby, we asked where we could go... More

Regarding the availability of restaurants in the area there is Mix City for lunch, the restaurant of our hotel for dinner, or effectively if you prefer there are many restaurants in the 6th district...

Second time I've stayed here - the location so convenient. When booking over the telephone I requested not to have one of the rooms over the tram, but when given the key realised it was - they were happy to change it (did have the note of my request). No dinner at hotel, but they suggested a restaurant in the... More

Very convenient for working at Espace Tete D'Or, approx 2 minute walk. Rooms good size, bed very comfortable, good large bath towels. That said. there were all sorts of things which just missed being right.

Arrived via the back door as it was not altogether clear where the entrance is if you are coming from the tram stop - this area is a bit of 60's architect's wonderful dream of the future - i.e. a lot of reinforced concrete!
