    Nothing. It was just a good no nonsense hotel with staff that make it great.

    Great little hotel. Very quirky but comfortable. The staff were amazing. So polite and helpful delight to talk too. The room was good size as was the bathroom and serviced every day.

    It is what it is. Elevator is old and slow.

    Unique building in a great location in the old city. Close to restaurants and shops. Staff was excellent. Rooms were not ultra modern Hilton/Marriott. Smaller, older European style. Functional. Excellent breakfast.

    The location was a metro ride from the train station and then a 1km walk from there. The breakfast was very expensive.

    The location in Lyon Old Town was good. The bed was comfortable and the staff helpful.

    We would have liked to have a drink on check-in, but it's tricky when this is being managed by the check-in staff who have other people to attend to. The bedroom was tiny and quite cold/clinical. I get that this is the 'vibe' of the hotel but some home comforts would have been nice. Parking was not available, I wish we had been asked about this earlier.

    Incredible location and lovely views. The terrace is beautiful although the waitress didn't really appear to want to serve us. All of the staff were friendly.

    Coffee facilities could be better. For a boutique style hotel a Nespresso or similar machine would be nice.

    The nod to the hotel’s history as a college.

    The hotel is close to bars which might bother people who are sensitive to noise.

    Perfect location for exploring Lyon. Clean and spacious room with airconditioning. Our shower drain was clogged but after informing the staff they fixed it.

    Great location, very convenient to everything. Interesting decor - stark and minimalist but it works. Breakfast was very good (organic, local, artisanal). The hotel is air conditioned which was very welcome in the 38C heat. We parked in the garage which is accessible via a car lift. The lift is 5.2m long and out car is 5.16m so not an exercise for the feint-hearted!

    Assigned a room in the 4th floor when we arrived, with no functioning elevator, despite informing the hotel of my need for ease of movement, eg in bathroom. The stairs are pretty daunting for those with restricted mobility. However, the staff did adjust and assigned us to a room which was easier to access.

    Nice room, comfortable lounge areas, chilled water supply near reception, helpful staff.

    I thought the breakfast was overpriced for what it was.

    It’s got a nice relaxed feel about it. The staff were excellent and the location great for the old town. The outside area on floor 2 was perfect.

    Light and noise isolation is not good. The hotel is beautiful, but the room is not, and it is very small

    Hotel is nice, in the old town Lyon, which is good because you are close to every thing (but it can be noisy at night), personal is very nice as well

    There's nothing I didn't like but I felt that for the price, the breakfast could be slightly improved. For instance when a guest gives advanced warning about an allergy or strong intolerance, saying, you can still eat this or that, is not good enough. You need to find a solution so that the choices are still plentiful.

    It's located right in the old Lyon. You can walk all the way up to Notre-Dame de Fourvière and all the old streets. You can also walk easily to the city centre. There's a train station right next to the hotel, although I have no idea where the line takes you. If you don't like walking, there are trams not far, just across the river. The decor is very quirky and unique. The shower was great. I absolutely loved the terrace. You can even bring your own food, providing you get some drinks.

    The hotel had tried to contact me but I had no missed calls on my phone.

    When we arrived there was a technical problem and we had been transferred to a different hotel , which was 4 stars around the corner. Price had been covered and there was no extra charge.
