Top 1st Arrondissement Hotel Reviews

NH Lyon Airport

10/10 Excellent

"So convenient for early morning flights! Delicious restaurant on site with excellent service. It is amazingly quiet for being at a busy airport."

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."

Mercure Lyon Centre Château Perrache

10/10 Excellent

"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."
