Lyon Hippodrome - Carré de Soie

Nice hotel but there was a cockroach in our room. The place is located in a bad neighborhood. There is not enough parking for the guests.

This hotel is in the prime location for exploring the old Lyon downtown. Room we had is very spacious, with plenty of storage, comfortable bed, large marble bathroom with rain shower, fifth floor, with “city” view, i.e. not a river view. Very quiet. The buffet breakfast is great, especially considering that it is hard to find place to have a full meal around in the morning. Plenty of coffee places, though. Staff is very helpful, however we did not get our promised by Expedia complementary bottle of wine, despite reminding front desk. May be language barrier. Well, we did not remain thirsty 😂. The room was air-conditioned, cleaned everyday, with some additional turn-down services in the evening. Coffee machine in the room, bottled water in the refrigerator, replenished daily - still and sparkling. Great stay overall.
