Portes-les-Valence Trip

The check was very easy, they even let us check in a few hours early. The hotel was lovely and clean, the lamp in the room didn’t work but plenty of other lights, the tv wouldn’t connect to the internet so could only watch French tv. Spa area was lovely and relaxing after a busy day skiing. We had one free access per booking so definitely made use of it. The breakfast was brilliant. Hot and cold buffet breakfast so great start to the day. Location of hotel was perfect, not too far from all the lifts. We didn’t eat in the restaurant but the bar area was very nice and all the staff were extremely friendly. Would definitely come again.

Nice hotel. Great location, walking distance to major attractions. It was clean and safe.

Excellent location. Clean rooms and great service.

I booked this property for the pool, which did not disappoint. About 20 meters long with hot tub attached. Also had a steam room and full spa services(which I did not try). We ate light lunches at the bar and breakfasts in the small dining room. There are 3 very good restaurants adjacent - we tried fixed menu at two and were not disappointed - plus the views were very nice. (The third is Michelin Star rated). If you book, suggest you go for breakfast included as it is a bit pricey for the buffet. The staff was superb and extremely helpful, especially the concierge. This boutique hotel earns its 5 star rating. Only drawback was that Vieux Lyon was a steep walk about 15 min down hill. Maybe take taxi back if you have mobility issues.

Great breakfast menu with a panoramic view of the beautiful city of Lyon
