Very nice hotel and staff. However, dinner in the restaurant was a disappointment. Ordered steak and fish, both were tough (old?). Steak sent back, came back same. Steak only about one-quarter-inch thick. Desserts were good. Only there one night, should have gone to a Michelin-recommended bistro just two blocks away. Be sure to visit Paul Bocuse Food Hall nearby.

The room was clean and modern with nice lighting and a great shower. The market nearby is amazing but the neighbourhood is no Vieux Lyon. We wish the room had a wine bottle opener and the we had some warning about the fire drill.
