The staff was very accommodating to our needs, easy to talk to and offers help willingly. The hotel is walkable to the Bellecour Plaza which is also close to the shopping district. There is a metro and a tourist office at the Bellecour Plaza. Also by the Bellecour Plaza is the Lyon City bus - hop on/off version. However, it is only one bus and the total full bus route to the tourist areas is two hours. one has to plan their day. The area around the hotel has a lot of dining options as well. The hotel offers an unlimited supply of drinking water by the reception desk which is very important to the guests after a day of fun. For first timers to this hotel, one has to use the elevator to go up to the reception area. After that, everything is a breeze. I will certainly avail if this hotel when I return to Lyon.

Quaint little hotel in the middle of Lyon. Walkable to all attractions and many cafes and restaurants, plus a nice market around the corner. The room was clean and well appointed. While the room itself was small, we were comfortable and slept very well. We weere treated to a very nice praline brioche as a welcome gift. I would definitely stay here again.

Hotel Alexandra was an excellent choice for Lyon. It couldn't be more conveniently located, the staff was delightful and kind. The rooms are quirky, maybe a bit small (but not unexpectedly so), but clean and comfortable. It's literally steps away from the metro, so it's super convenient to get anywhere in the city. I'll definitely stay there again when I return!

Hotel was lovely and ideally located, right on the metro. Breakfast was over-priced so we only splurged once in our 3 nights. Many cafe's within stepping distance from the hotel, even in the rain. And believe me, there is rain! Limited parking available, although the public parking garage is close by and convenient. We only needed the car to attend a wedding, so really you wouldn't need a car at all to just explore the city, since the train system is so amazing. Rooms are small, but very comfortable - not much walking space around your bed if you have lots of luggage. Impossibly small safe, couldn't even hold a macbook. Shower is strong. Rooms are a bit noisy if you have a street-facing room. The front desk is very friendly and helpful for dinner suggestions. We had two really great dinners just blocks from the hotel: Le Poêlon d'Or was a 5* and Le Comptoir d'Ainay was a notch less, since it seemed pricey for no reason, but tasty. We did very well on our limited French. Very safe and lively location for a hotel.
