“Friendly and professional staff - nothing was too much trouble. Beautifully renovated convent retaining many original features. Comfortable room. Onsite private parking. Delicious food in the restaurant. Less than 1 km away is a beautiful basilica and the remains of a Roman amphitheatre for those that like to enjoy a bit of nearby culture.”
“The hotel is a converted monastery and has a fabulous vibe. The pool and spa are wonderful, and the restaurant fantastic with very helpful staff. It is a short walk to the Roman amphitheatre and historic city centre.”
“Very unique and comfortable hotel in a historic area of Lyon. It is not dead central, but it is nice to be away from the maddening crowds! It is an easy walk into the historic old town (less easy coming back up the hill!), but everything is within easy reach by public transport. Rooms are new and clean, and staff are very nice. Great bar and restaurant, if a little pricey.”
“Fantastic jaw-dropping property, very attentive staff.”
“Great breakfast. Great location for the Basilica etc”
“Old historical building very carefully decorated. The chapel as part of reception is impressive. Restaurant very pleasant while simple.”
“The main reason for staying at this hotel was because we had the car and needed guaranteed parking. The car park is spacious and safe. It is an easy walk to the funicular and down to the old town.”
“Awesome hotel located in an incredible setting above the city. A five minute walk to the funicular, a two minute ride and you are in the old town. The only draw back was the lack of a gym but two or three round trip walks from the hotel to the base of the hill and back will get your heart pumping. Breakfast is outstanding, staff super helpful and rooms small but clean, bright and well appointed.”
“The family room was great, super spacious and modern facilities with everything you need. Access to the spa was fabulous as was the pool. Wish we stayed here a little longer.”
“great rooms, nicely appointed and lots of room, good beds , beautiful hotel inside and out, fabulous furniture and artwork The restaurant was superb and it was so close to town and metro”
