No ac so had to keep windows open but it is a very busy noisy street so difficult to sleep easily if room is on the Main Street. Perhaps a fan ? We loved the Time Machine quality of the room which was unique and fun and yet still fully comfortable and clean. We were a bit skeptical given the nature of the Entrance -but it is lovely once you enter and understand the unesco heritage.

The staff here is amazing! They are so kind and helpful. Also, the hotel is perfectly situated. It is across from a wonderful plaza, steps from the metro, steps from quality shopping including the arts and antique district and centrally located to make walking anywhere you would want to go, just a few minutes away. The rooms are adorable and I loved the attention to detail. I am one who usually likes to try different places when I visit a city but next time I come to Lyon, I will definitely stay here again. It could not be more perfect!

Very nice hotel, great location, good breakfast, friendly & helpful staff. Just a suggestion for the hotel - the room lighting was very dark (26) - would suggest more lights/brighter lightbulbs.
