Francheville Vacations

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.

Very helpful staff, who assisted us with changing rooms. The hotel is a bit far from the city center, but this makes parking much easier. The breakfast area (and the rooms) are small.

It is an old building next to a very old theatre still in use. Beautiful area.

A charming, relatively small hotel right in the heart of Lyon. We booked a long weekend in Hotel Silky on our way to the Alps as we had always wanted to explore Lyon. The hotel is in the perfect location nestled between the Soan and Rhone rivers, each being a 5 minute walk away, and right next to the old town. The hotel staff were all really helpful on check-in and throughout our stay. the rooms were clean and had everything you need for a short stay. There is no car park, but the staff pointed us in the direction of the nearest secure underground car park next to the river (5 min walk). The hotel is in a lovely small square where you can sit after a days sight seeing and watch the world go by. The continental breakfast was also good value for money. Would definitely recommend and would not hesitate to stay at Hotel Silky again in the future.

Close to Part Dieu station and surrounded by good bars and restaurants. 25 minute walk to the old town. The Mexican receptionist was extremely helpful and a credit to the hotel.
