The hotel is extremely dated and in need of an upgrade. Very in clean in areas. The parking is hard to find and €15 to park in this vault underground. We had an executive room, there was nothing executive about it! Dirty carpets and air conditioning was dreadful. If it’s hot, you’re gonna have an awful night. The area is surrounded by high rise flats and nothing picturesque about it and the pool is shared with another hotel so has extremely cloudy dirty water and far too small. The food is super quick so obviously not cooked fresh and the breakfast was average. Avoid this Flea pit at all costs.!
I loved our family suite that came with free complimentary drinks in our fridge and complimentary toiletries. However the lighting in the main bedroom was poor design.
Budget hotel. Very out dated compared to other Novotel hotels. Bathroom was poorly designed so water from fixed shower sprays outside the cubicle. Cracked tiles.
From arrival the lady serving us greeted me with a friendly ‘bonjour’ and when I said Hello in English, her face instantly changed to a look of disgust….do your staff not like the British? I don’t complain easily but unfortunately due to the events as follows we were really let down. The room really wasnt up to an executive standard. the mattresses and pillows are VERY stained, there is only one bin for the whole place and thats in the bathroom, the walls are so thin we could hear everyone in other rooms so sleeping was difficult. we didnt have any complimentary items in the fridge-no water, soft drinks or food. there were no free toiletries in the bathroom as stated.the shower is too low so we had to stoop under it and the adjustable shower head doesnt work. the shower tray is dirty and the conditioner bottle empty. There is no rail when coming out and is dangerous to take a big step down.we were only given 2 coffee pods and one dressing gown for a family of 4.1 cracked mug by the kettle. 2 of the wall sockets dont work and we tried several plugs so its definitely the sockets. the interjoining door to another room doesnt lock so the otherside could easily walk in if they wanted but we put things against the door just in case. the advert for the stay is misleading as it says a seperate bedroom but its all in one room! i had to ask for all the missing items and was brought a chocolate bar, 3 cans for the fridge and for the fridge and some paper cups. No water bottles
Clean hotel with the bare essentials. Location is a distance from historic region of Lyon~ 3 miles. Walking it took us 45 minutes but public transit is really close. Restaurant on site is limited in hours and only serves breakfast and dinner at set times. Staff were friendly and helpful.
Good base in the south of Lyon city centre - 5 mins walk to a tram stop to travel into the city centre. The Breakfast buffet had a lot of options for us as a family. The communal pool is small, but good - towels for the pool are 2 euros from reception. Parking is underground at 14 euros. Restaurant on an evening is friendly.

Rooms very small for 2 adults plus 1 child. Is out of the way but tram & metro close by.
Room and bathroom need updating. Although beds are very comfortable & breakfast is good.

Liked: Cleanliness
There was a conference on whilst we were there, so lobby area was busy.
Pool is very small and bizarrely you have to walk through the dining area to get to it. There's no changing facilities so you have to walk back in your wet costume under your clothes. Seems the Ibis next door has all the same facilities but is cheaper than the Novatel!
