Avoid! Pictures do not match reality

Upon arrival, we were told to open the large gates leading up to the driveway of the house. The gates were what I can only describe as something you would see at a 'haunted' house in really poor condition. Our first impressions were not great as the accommodation appeared very old and run down. As we approached the house, the ground were extremely unkempt: overgrown, unclean pool and the tennis court area had seen better days. As we opened the main door, we noticed the wallpaper in the hallway was falling off the walls and the general interior was very tired. It must be noted when we arrived, it was around 37 degrees in Lyon and the house was extremely warm. We were told by the host not to open any windows (no air con) due to the large mosquitoes. My partner and I spent 5 minutes in the room, where we made the decision to leave. I would imagine 10/20 years ago, this would have been a beautiful home but there are far better options (as we later found out) in the nearby area. The accommodation was not cheap and does not match the images provided. I have tried to contact the house who has ignored my messages and I am currently in contact with hotels.com to obtain a refund.

beautiful belle époque home and garden

Absolutely lovely Belle Époque home overlooking Lyon. A wonderful very large garden with swimming pool and tennis court. Of course, being winter we could not make use of those facilities but imagine that it would be amazing as soon as the weather becomes warmer. Our hosts were charming and our room very comfortable. Excellent breakfast too. Although it is not in the centre of Lyon it only took us 15 minutes by car to get into Lyon where it was very easy to park at the Opera. Highly recommended for those who want the experience of staying in a beautiful Lyonnais home in great comfort.

‘This is not a Hotel’

‘This is not a hotel’ is the first thing the hostess told us when she first called. The villa indeed is their own home and this is made very clear during our stay. The hostess treated our kids as a strict schoolteacher and to top it all off at the end of the evening also yelled upstairs that we were playing with the heating, which we were not. In the Summer this place might be nicer with the outside pool but in the winter this would not be suitable for a family vacation. Price and quality do not go hand in hand, far overpriced.

Incomparable

Non seulement le site et le bâtiment sont magnifiques dans un parc arboré avec piscine offrant une vue magnifique sur le Rhône et Lyon Est mais l'accueil de Florence est particulièrement chaleureux et convivial. Si on ajoute à cela une table d'hôte qui offre une cuisine faite avec amour et uniquement à base de produits bios, frais, locaux et de saison et une carte de vins naturels en biodynamie c'est le jackpot assuré pour passer un agréable moment après le travail

Bien pour une escale

Notre séjour était en fait une escale d’une nuit mais pas n’importe quelle nuit, celle du réveillon de nouvel an. La bâtisse est assez imposante et bien chauffée, même si elle mériterait un bon rafraîchissement, elle est assez jolie. L’hôtesse est très sympathique, un peut « bobo » tournée vers le bio etc et c’était assez compliqué avec les enfants qui eux ont plus du mal à manger des pains aux céréales par exemple... mes filles rêvaient de gâteaux, glacés ou biscuits apéro mais rien de tout cela ... La literie est ok. Nous avions la suite parentale qui est le deuxième étage de la maison avec une salle de bain. Ce n’était pas très pratique car juste une baignoire, pas de douche (ni de rideaux dans la baignoire) il y avait une odeur d’humidité. Il faisait assez frais dans une des chambres car nous n’avions pas vu mais une petite fenêtre du toit était restée ouverte (pas de lumière du jour dans cette chambre). Les repas sont annoncés à 25€/pers mais nous avons du payer 40€/personne pour le réveillon mais le menu restait assez simple (soupe épinards, magret d’oie avec risotto de Sarrazin et comté et poire cuite en dessert) Pas vraiment de carte des boissons donc on doit faire confiance à notre hôte. Le petit déjeuner est très simple: pain local thé ou café (a l’ancienne) et/ou jus d’orange avec yaourt bio fruits fromages. Pas de viennoiseries ni pain blanc ni baguette au grand désespoir des enfants ;)

Très très bon séjour au sein de la Villa Castel. Le domaine est unique et donne tout simplement envie de revenir. Florence est d'une personnalité incroyable qui est prête à vous considérer comme un ami cher et qui se décarcasse pour que vous ne manquez de rien. Je recommande très chaleureusement les yeux fermés !!

Man fühlt sich sehr wohl. Eigener Pool, Frühstück dem Flair entsprechend mit altem, stilvollen Porzellan und Silberbesteck. Eine Gastgeberin, die sich sehr viel Mühe gibt, vom Servieren eines handgemachten Kaffees, über Einkaufstipps, bis hin zu Essensempfehlungen in Lyon. Wir als Familie mit vier kleinen Kindern haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Würden wir jederzeit nochmal buchen.
