Good location, easy walking distance to everything we wanted to see. The breakfast was enjoyable, the food and the breakfast room full of quirky items. I arrived to the hotel with some virus and Orianna was very helpful with researching English speaking doctors. Lyon was on my To see list for a few years and it is as wonderful as I imagined.

The breakfast staff and housekeeping were first rate. But that's the only positive things I can say. This was supposedly a 3 star hotel but I would barely give it 2 stars. We booked what was called a "prestige" room but it was far from that. No wi-fi in the room and barely any cellular. I reported that after the 1st night of our 4 night stay but nothing was ever done about it. Most of the furniture in the room looked to be a century old and sourced from consignment stores. The "artwork" was a bizarre hodgepodge of things that didn't match. I cannot give a positive review for this place and will certainly never stay there again. And should the owner protest this review, we made sure to take lots of pictures to document our comments.

Terrific gem of a hotel in an ideal location.

This is a wonderful boutique hotel in an absolutely outstanding location in Lyon. It couldn't be more centrally located, in a posh neighborhood, and near a metro stop. All the staff were super helpful and lovely. Each room has a distinct character, and quirky charm.
