Short break

Lovely hotel in great setting. It is a steep climb back up to hotel when visiting Viuex Lyon on foot but best way to get around. Plenty of options for food and drink nearby. Only downside at present is getting luggage to and from hotel whilst roadworks are being carried out but this is temporary

Location is in a hill. The problem that we had is that they arranged our taxi to the train station and it charged us 35€ without a taxi meter when an app Taxi would have charged us less than half!

A Truly Luxury Hotel Overlooking City Lyon

Perfect location among artsy and understated residential area. Bus C6 takes you directly from Lyon Train Station to the bottom hill where the hotel, an ancient fortress, is on top of the hill overlooking the river and Lyon. A nice 15 minute flat road or a quick shortcut stairs walk to the hotel. I came a couple of hours early and the staff put my luggage in storage and even found a vase for my 1 single rose (a Mother’s Day gift). There are excellent family run French restaurants and bakeries within 2 minute walking distance from the hotel. Neighborhood near the river bank has more boutique shops, restaurants and eateries. I used the 2 extra hours walked to/back from the most famous church. Night having a sip at hotel’s bar with river and city view is priceless. Truly a luxurious hotel, location, facilities and services/staffs.

Words do not do this hotel justice. The view from this 16th Century Fort, that has full, modern amenities, was beautiful. The courtyard that houses a cocktail & wine bar, along with a local food truck, was a perfect way to finish the day after walking throughout Lyon. The staff was extremely helpful, and the breakfast was a lovely spread of local ingredients. There is a beautiful, outdoor breakfast area, that overlooks the Rhone river valley. Excellent, excellent and beautifully unexpected!

Great stay, wish we had stayed longer!

Wonderful view of the city, and a great outdoor area to hang out! They also gave us fantastic restaurant recommendations. If you are arriving by car, parking is a bit difficult, but there is a large underground parking structure about 5-10 minutes' walk away. Large spacious rooms also.

God atmosfære og utsikt.

Oppholdet var helt ok. Super utsikt fra hotellet fra byen. Hotellet ligger på en høyde så det er ganske mange trappetrinn fra elva opp til hotellet. Fin atmosfære. Frokosten er som ellers i Europa helt ok.
