Radisson Blu Hotel Lyon
4 night stay in Lyon. Hotel is located beside Westfield shopping centre and a short distance from the main train station. The hotel itself was clean, but the carpets in the corridor leading to the rooms could do with replacing as they are heavily marked and looked dirty. The bar was okay, great view ...

Premiere Classe Lyon Centre - Gare Part Dieu
Good hotel for a short stay. It’s conveniently located near the train station but a bit far from Lyon old city. Standard small clean room, quiet area, decent typical french breakfast with a lot of sweet and some savory options. Few grocery stores nearby

Residhotel Lyon Part Dieu
A Frence business focused average hotel. Check-in didn't speak English, safe didn't work in my room, few amenities and a very non-holiday room. If you know why it's cheap and what you're getting into, it's perfectly comfortable and well situated
