Stairs to third floor are a challenge - you need to be fit.

Studio was clean and functional. Good location.

Lots of stairs to carry luggage up and down

Good position; lovely views. Convenient kitchen

Be aware 80 steps to get to 3 rd floor, would have been useful to have a bedside table at side of double bed to put things on and maybe a hook or something on wall for clothes

Good location in charming building, apartment had all we needed and felt very safe for small family, near shops and bars etc double bed was comfy, was clean apartment

Beautiful old building near Hotel de Bille and Opera

The double bed was located on a mezzanine platform. It was lovely... But access was via a vertical ladder with a pole for support, and it is not ideal for anyone who needs to get up during the night to go to the loo - or for elderly people. The benefit of the apartment being located on the ground floor of the building was negated by the fact that the bed access required agility and stability. Otherwise, very comfortable.

Beautiful apartment. Not at 21 Royale - but located on Quai André Lassange. Right beside the river. Stylish. Very handy for the areas a tourist would most want to visit. Very close to Opera House and Hotel de Ville and Museum of Beax Arts. Round the corner from the Metro to connect to The Rhone Express to get to airport. Easy. Handy for the arty "silk workers" area. Easy access to main shopping street leading to the old town. Very well equipped apartment. Extremely quiet within a courtyard. Most enjoyable stay. Very comfy bed and good quality bedding.

There wasn't a key for the bins so we just had to leave our rubbish in the flat but we were only there for one night so it wasn't too bad.

Clear instructions.

I did like the fact that our room was on top of the living room, it felt like there was no privacy.

The wide space. The kids loved

The bathroom was off the main bedroom (although the separate toilet was off the living space) which makes the apartment ideal for families - we were travelling with our student daughter - but would be perhaps more difficult for others. Some of the furnishings a bit tired - the apartment has obviously been well used but this didn't detract too much from the over all charm.

The location was brilliant, very close to the metro to go up Croix-Rousse and 7 minutes walk from Hotel de Ville metro station and connections to the Rhone Express. Vieux Lyon and Croix Rousse all in walking distance. Close to the river. Small but perfectly formed apartment in lovely historical building with very high ceilings and original features - ideal for a family.

Poor wifi No mugs Washing machine didn't work Broken toilet seat Late communication on how to gain access

Excellent location Good size shower Good security

Kitchen did not have a sharp knife and coffee pods did not fit machine.

Location was superb - walk to Old town, restaurants, shopping district and park.

Lack of furniture in the main bedroom. Two tiny bedside tables and a bed. Needs a dressing table or chest of drawers. Lack of drinking glasses in the kitchen. No wine, no beer glasses, nothing bigger than a tiny tumbler.

The location and the size.

Being on the ground floor is a little awkward with people on the street just outside but the windows were barred so it felt safe and you’re right across from the river!

Door codes make everything so easy!

A few very minor quibbles - the washing up sink seemed to have no plug, and a few more tea bags and a cafetière would have been nice. And the frying pan needed replacing as no handle and damaged non-stick surface. Otherwise all was very lovely indeed!

Really stylish apartment with a lovely mix of period features and modern kitchen and bathroom. The location is superb too, minutes from great restaurants and the river, but also very quiet at night. I also found it helpful being so close to a secure underground carpark, albeit very expensive. Would recommend 😊

It could have had more cleaning/shower materials

Easy check-in and the host´s responsiveness

It was frustrating that I had to chase the information regarding keys or entry codes the day before my visit. The apartment is quite well equipped, but could do with a few glasses for soft drinks or wine.

This apartment is very well located, with the city centre right on the doorstep. It is on the third floor, but I was aware of this, so the climb of 93 steps didn’t bother me!

Stayed in June 2024

I speak fluent French, but it took me numerous emails and phone calls to get the property address and door codes. I only received the codes and address on the morning we arrived in France. This needs to improve. Pans did not easily work on the induction hob. Could do with being changed.

Location is excellent next to Rhone - 2 mins from Hotel de Ville. Although it is not 21 Rue Royale as advertised. Apartment is good size and clean.

Property needs a revamp. Third floor property - we knew this would be the case but there were almost 100 steps to the property, not a problem but more than average for three floors.

Location, convenience, facilities. The shower was great.

Excellent location near the river lovely, clean and comfortable.

Though there is a dishwasher and a washing machine, there were neither dishwasher tablets or laundry products. If you open the windows it's extremely loud outside, but that's the cost of living in the middle of everything.

The location is excellent if you want to enjoy the historic areas. The apartment is nice and cozy, there are huge french windows with a view at the river.

It was a bit of a faff getting the door code as the owner wouldn't give it until we had done some complicated (to me) extra insurance thingy via booking.com, which incidentally asked for photos of the flay (catch 22!) This was hard to do from Paris on phone and I wish booking.com had asked for it straight away at booking time in the interests both of convenience and transparency - not quite sure why some properties have it and others don't. Also it made us feel a bit paranoid and unrelaxed about taking full advantage the flat's amenities

A stylish studio flat in a v good location.

Second bed seems from the pictures as another bedroom. Second bed was like a loft bed which was quite steep. Wouldn’t be suitable for anyone that isn’t nimble. Wifi also quite poor.

Good location.
