Top Lyon Hotel Reviews

Kyriad Prestige Lyon Est - Saint Priest Eurexpo Hotel and Spa

Kyriad Prestige Lyon Est - Saint Priest Eurexpo Hotel and Spa

8/10 Good
"Das Zimmer war sehr schön und sauber, aber sehr ringhörig. Unser Zimmer lag im 1. Stock, also genau über der Lobby. In der ersten Nacht habe ich kaum geschlafen, da man immer die Geräusche/Stimmen aus dem Gang, der Lobby und dem Restaurant gehört hat. Das Spa ist klein aber fein. Jedoch sieht man auch, dass es schon etwas älter ist. Auch er Whirpool könnte mal ersetzt werden, der Boden war ganz braun und eine Abdeckung hing nur noch so halb dran. Aber für den Preis kann man nichts sagen. Aber das Superior Zimmer mit Spa Eintritt lohn sich nicht. Es ist günstiger ein normales Zimmer zu buchen und den Spa Eintritt extra zu bezahlen."

"I enjoyed the breakfast and the room was comfortable but the most important thing to me was the location. The hotel is perfectly situated for access to the main railway station. The tram stopped right outside and took you to the metro line D which went to the old town. Very convenient. There are plenty of good restaurants nearby and Westfield is right outside the door."
