Bonjour, c'est la 2e fois que nous venons au Mercure Lumière de Lyon, et sommes un peu déçus par rapport à la première fois :
- moins de choix au petit déjeuner, tasses tâchées
- femme de chambre qui pose les draps et serviettes propres au sol
- cheveux dans la douche
- traces de peinture dans la chambre. Après demande d'intervention du service concerné, traces de peinture nettoyées, mais les cheveux dans la douche restaient présents.

Je ne peux malheureusement vous parler de notre séjour car j'ai dû l'annuler le jour de notre arrivée le 30 mai à 17.11 par téléphone. En effet, mon mari a fait un choc anaphylactique consécutif à une piqure d'insecte, a été transféré aux urgences de Valence dans la Drôme et n'est sorti qu'hier, lundi 2 juin en début d'après midi. La réception de l'hôtel m'a dit devoir débiter la nuit du 30 au 31 mai. Je ne conteste pas ce débit, même si les circonstances d'annulation sont totalement indépendantes de notre volonté. Toutefois pourrions nous espérer un geste commercial sur nos prochaines réservations dans le groupe Mercure ? Dans l'attente d'une réponse veuillez agréer nos sincères salutations.

I pitty who goes in the summer...

In general, it´s a good hotel, not exactly walking distance from main attractions but close enough by Metro (4 stops).
The installations are not so great, I would expect much better from a Mercure Hotel, NO AIR CONDITIONING AT ALL, I complained about it and they said there was nothing they could do, we had to sleep with the open window, dealing with the noise of the streets.

Aside from that, good breakfast and a good enough parking.

Prestations a désirer

Plusieurs choses nous ont laissés un gout amer a savoir : le manque de places de stationnement interne a l'hôtel , premier arrivé premier servi ( pas de possibilité de réservation a l'avance) d'autant que dans les environs les places libres étaient inexistantes . Dans les chambres un frigo totalement vide , même pas une petite bouteille d'eau et dans la salle de bain absence totale de tout produits corporelles hormis flacons de gel douche. A part quelques cintres aucuns rangements possibles pour les vêtements .

This hotel does NOT have air conditioning in the rooms as they state that it's too early in the year to turn it on. This is misleading advertising when they state they have AC but do NOT provide the months that it works in the rooms. I now get to spend the next 12 days in a warm room for my vacation. Cracking a window does provide some relief however, now I hear traffic during the time that I am supposed to be sleeping. Takes 7-10 days for a refund (which they refused to give all the while acknowledging the AC issue) and I will not shell out another $1500 for a hotel when THIS one should provide what it advertises....so I was stuck. Mercure ......this is terrible service and you should make AC dates clear on the advertising of this hotel. I will not use Mercure in any way in the

Au niveau confort, deux ou trois petites remarques pas difficile à réaliser... Augmenter la pression de l'eau dans la douche, car une fois savonné très dur de se rincer malgré la pomme de douche réglable, et un peu de chauffage dans la salle d'eau serait nécessaire car au sortir de la douche... gla-gla-gla. Un petit balais WC serait un +. Presque tout bon!!!

Average- great comfortable bed, free minibar but coke cans were damaged so afraid they would explode when opening.
didn’t reply to my request about parking and when we arrived had to park on the street because our gallery on top of the car was too high for the parking. Shower would go hot and almost burn you then cold. Carpeting on floor which I hate- but they give you slippers and robe to use which is a bonus. No restaurant in hotel available. Expensive for what it is.

Ideal stopover

The Mercure Lyon Lumiere was everything one expects of a Mercure Hotel - modern, clean, friendly staff, excellent breakfast etc. Parking is available on the premises but we were able to park right outside. We chose this hotel because it's slightly out of town and therefore less expensive and access by car is good. Didn't realise until after we booked that it is about 200m from \"Lumiere Institute\" (Lumiere Bros acknowledged as the 'inventors' of the world's first movies) and we are movie enthusiasts! We are returning to the Mecure Lyon next weekend after a week in the south. WILL DEFINITELY ENJOY AGAIN!

Det var fruktansvärt varmt i Lyon, men behagligt på hotellrummet. Vi sov utomordentligt gott och det är väl kanske det viktigaste. Området är lite småtrist, men det är bara 150 meter till T-banan, vilken är mycket bra i Lyon. Vi hade otur med en icke-fungerande hiss när vi skulle checka ut. Det var tungt att släpa på resväskor från femte våningen. Men det är sånt som händer.
