Mercure Lyon Centre Château Perrache

"We chose the hotel due to close proximity to the Parrache station , it’s good reviews and price. It is located in a beautiful old chateau style building, The interior was an architectural gem. The staff were very friendly and helpful. We would highly recommend."

Radisson Blu Hotel Lyon

10/10 Excellent

"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."
