Villa Maia is in an amazing location, and was wonderful to stay at. The staff is incredibly kind, thoughtful and helpful. The concierge is so knowledgeable and helpful. The staff bent over backwards to help us to have a great stay. Julian and Baptiste helped my daughter find an apartment to rent, while she is there for school. The whole staff is wonderful! I will stay there every time I’m in Lyon!

absolutely gorgeous hotel, the spa was amazing, we loved the location, and best of all each and every person we met there was just so gracious and helpful. The main conceirge saved our lives by fixing a train reservation I had completely fumbled - he found us a far better train, at a far better price, and helped us navigate the difficult reservation system. we would not have been able to do without him. other travelers told us they had taken the front desks help in many other ways all to excellent effect, as well. We will definitely come back some time, and tell our friends to do the same! Cindy

The view overlooking the city was attractive. However, the winding roads up to it slowed/discouraged(?) Uber pickups - necessitating hasty taxi pickups thankfully organized by hotel staff. The spa features were appreciated.

Hotel Villa Maïa offers a stunning view of Lyon and the river. The staff are warm, courteous, and genuinely friendly. Rooms are spacious, well-appointed, and very comfortable. It’s quiet at night, making it ideal for restful sleep. The train station is just a few minutes’ walk away, though there are no shops nearby. The hotel has an indoor pool and a gym. The downside is the surrounding area has no shops or eateries nearby.

Just a short walk up the hill from the center of old town, right below the Roman theaters. This hotel was 5 star all the way. In particular the concierge gave us top recommendations for sight seeing and restaurants. Our room had a view of the picturesque and tranquil gardens of the courtyard which was amazing to sit on our balcony each morning and have coffee.

Villa Maia was absolutely outstanding. This is as all luxury hotels should be. From the bellman to the reception…flawless. How all the staff seems to remember your name as you come and go is amazing.

Not the best city view in a city view room.

Arrived late due to travel delays. Was able to have room service first night. Limited menu but nice. Had reserved City View room, see pictures for view advertised vs actual view. Room was nice and clean but as stay progressed housekeeping did not remove trash, replace water cups or restock mini bar. Never repaired latch on door as requested. Asked to replace dirty towels and bathrobes on 3rd day by putting in tub per instructional card. They just rehung the same dirty robes. Replaced only half the towels. While the hotel is further from the city it is nice and quiet. But honestly maybe not worth the addition cost or travel time. Staff very nice and professional.
