Fourvière Hôtel Lyon
Such a beautiful place to stay. Wonderful staffs and the breakfast is amazing. The room was spacious but with a bit funky layout. The SPA is a bit small and wish it is hotter . But we really appreciate the beautiful setting and stay.

Premiere Classe Lyon Centre - Gare Part Dieu
This is a very basic hotel and the price is right. I was very happy that they had a parking available for a fee for the car in the garage. I must admit the breakfast buffet was amazing

Campanile Lyon Centre-Berges du Rhône
The location was perfect for crossing the bridges over the Rhône and to dine out. It was just a 20-minute walk to the funicular to ride up to the Notre-Dame de Fourvière Cathedral for a view of Lyon and to see the Roman ruins. The bed was big and super comfortable. Great place to relax.
