Top Lyon Hotel Reviews

Citadines Presqu'île Lyon

Citadines Presqu'île Lyon

10/10 Excellent
"The room was very nice. The location was easy to get around as you are in the heart of the city. Most attractions were either an easy walk or a quick bus or metro ride away. The hotel's breakfast was okay. We ate elsewhere most days. The restaurants near the hotel were a bit more expensive than those across the river or a short walk from the hotel. The hotels free breakfast website never worked. The front desk sent me a link that did work. But, the QR code at the front desk didn't work for myself and a half dozen other folks staying there. The staff was great and super helpful. Their towel policy was a little too long between swapping them. We were able to gain fresh towels an extra time during our week-long stay. We used the microwave."
