Parking was easy at a cost. Room was great with river views. I would normally give a 5/5 however I feel the staff in the coffee shop/bar/restaurant let the hotel down. Most of the staff were very busy talking to each other and left guests waiting until they went up and had to asked for service. I thought it was just the italian way until I saw a few Italian guests go up and asked to be served. The food could be better as well. Only a small thing as the laurel is attached to a Shopping centre and there are restaurants across the bridge within walking distance.

The hotel is a good place to stay overnight on the way to the mountains. But if you want to explore the city of Lyon, it is far from the cultural centre and all the activities. Other than that the room was clean the beds were great and the breakfast just right!! I was impressed by the juice MN machine with healthy choices like carrots cucumbers, oranges, ginger etc.

There are 4 cardio machines in the exercise room. Three of the four did not work for the 3 1/2 days I stayed here.

The temperature in the exercise room was always over 25 degrees.

Our room was far too warm. I attempted to adjust the thermometer in the room without success. When I asked at the desk about turning the temperature down, I was told that cannot be done.

I was told all the rooms have to be on the heat setting or all the rooms had to be on the cold setting. The hotel was on the heat setting so there was nothing that could be done to cool down our room. The thermostat in my room could not make the room any cooler.

For 3 1/2 days, either our room was too hot or we had to have the window wide open. This is a newly constructed hotel and there is essentially no control over the temperature of an individual room. Strange - and uncomfortable.

Helpful to have safe parking with reasonable rates associated with our hotel stay. Very walkable area with the navette just outside the hotel to take into the city center as a fun way to travel, or one could walk along the river. If you like shopping the hotel is located in the Confluence which has lots of stores. However I thought the restaurant choices and their hours at the Confluence could be greatly improved.

Not the best at all. It’s was 29 Celsius when we stayed. Dispute asking several times the air conditioning doesn’t work in any of the rooms, it is purposefully switch off or on an extremely low setting. It was like someone breathing on you. The balcony has to be booked as it is a restaurant open to the general public and we were asked to move, the toilets were dirty, covered in puke. The black-out curtains in our room had holes in and coffee stains. No milk or regular tea in the room. There are better hotels in Lyon.

Family long weekend break to Lyon

A safe and secure property next to a decently sized shopping mall and Carrefour. The property was well maintained and in a recently developed, modern part of Lyon - close to the river. A pleasant and safe area to walk around at night. The main retail shopping area and old town are walkable, although quite far - but accessible by a short tram/metro ride.

Parking was safe and convenient with access via a lift to the hotel. Reasonable value for money at EUR10 per night.

The Breakfast provided a reasonably extensive choice of cooked food and continental patisserie, meats, cereals coffee/teas/juices etc..

The rooms and general areas were very clean and well maintained.

The only negative was the room was very hot at night - air conditioning not working properly and opening the window had little effect despite being 7-9 degrees outside at night and 22 degrees during the day.

In summary, I would recommend this hotel as a safe, clean, quiet place to stay, especially if arriving by car. I would stay again if I ever returned to Lyon on a family holiday.

The elevator did not work once which was fixed later, but had to walk up the stairs. My key card did not work, so had to re-set which was done, but had to wait for at least 10 minute at the reception, which had a long queue.

Definitely if you are a tourist go somewhere else whete you will feel welcomed. Also I never got my hotel receipt.. waiting to see if they will remove the $180 euro deposit.

The hotel is attached to a mall (shops and restaurants/mostly fast-food) and it was easy getting on and off the highway in our car. Parking in the underground lot was a bit confusing, but the parking attendants went out of their way to help us.

Strangely noise at 2-3 a.m. from teenagers playing on electric scooters etc outside of rooms with river view and this didn't seem an isolated occasion as it happened on all of the three nights of our stay. Not sure the hotel can influence this in any way, suggest not opting for the river view side rooms if you are a light sleeper.

It is a very modern hotel located right at the Confluence Shopping Center which is in a modern area of Lyon. You have direct access to the shops from the hotel. The bar is really nice and it has an amazing view of the Saone River. My room also had a great view and it was very clean, the staff was friendly and the hotel was really modern. The only downside is that if you want to go out of the Confluence area, it can be kinda difficult. Not a metro station nearby. You will have to do a bit of a walk.

Awful bed, staff and experience. AVOID!!!

Awful, service, unhelpful staff. Disinterested in what they do or your comforts. Couldn't wait to get rid of us.

The bed was broken and when i asked for a different room they said they didn't have any?

Instead they offered me 2 vouchers for a drink in their bar? Because apparently an uncomfortable sleep is made better by two drinks? i said that's not a solution he took the vouchers back off me and said there was nothing he could do.

If you do decide to go here (for whatever reason) don't pay for the breakfast as they don't check and there were guests at a table next to us bragging how they did not pay and were getting it free, while we looked like mugs! Oh and the food was awful. Cold bland tasteless try food in FRANCE!!! A country that prides itself as a leader in food, is represented by this?

The staff look like they were forced to work without pay, absolutely no interest in what they did.

On checkout i was asked if i enjoyed my stay i said no and he said, \"Well thats good, Sir\". No listening skills at all.

There are so many other hotels in the vicinity i don't know why anyone would ever stay here.

Lost in time

The hotel has an air of modernism from the 1980's. The decor is all faux wood laminate and fluorescent lighting. It is quirky at first, but becomes uncomfortable after a little while. The location is not good... it is a long walk to anything of interest (though it is a nice walk, along the rivers.) I ended up using Uber a lot. Staff was friendly, and the room was clean. The bed was very comfortable. It was just too far away from Vieux Ville, the shopping areas of the Presqu'ile, and basically anything I was interested in seeing.
