Find hotels near 3e arrondissement in Lyon, France

Since we travelled by train, we loved this hotel! The hotel is located at the back of the train station, about 5 mins walk. The staff at the front desk was very friendly and helpful. He gave us the city map, he gave us recommendation where to eat and where to go, and how to get there. On our booking, we didn't ask for connecting rooms, but we asked if it was possible to have the connecting rooms, and he said yes! The room was amazing, altough very small. The bed was very comfy, the room was clean, the bathroom small but very clean. They had a lot of selections for the breakfast buffet. You have to walk to the front side of the station to get to the bus stop, but it wasn't very far. Overall, great hotel!

It was great to stay in an apartment-hotel because we made use of the kitchenette to cook up some wild mushrooms bought earlier that day in Auvergne--YUM! But I can't recommend it wholeheartedly because the train tracks were right outside the window, and while the double-paned glass blocked out a lot of noise, I and my husband both woke up now and again thanks to passing freight trains. If you sleep with earplugs or more deeply than most, then go for it. Another note: it was still 10-15 mins walk to Part-Dieu--nice to be walking distance but it is possible to get closer (though maybe not for the same price).

To start with the location wasn't too convenient and the staff weren't able to speak English very well so we had some trouble communicating.. You can cook here but the stove and kitchenware might not work properly... our stove didn't seem to turn off for some reason. Only stayed there for a night but I don't plan on revisiting this place. It was larger than a normal hotel and the bathroom was really big but other than that, not very appealing.

I traveled with my mom and we extended our stay in Lyon, stayed in this hotel for 5 nights. It was a bit stuffy in the room during the end of August. Our room is not air-conditioned, but it has a fan, which is not bad. It'll be perfect if the room is on a higher floor, then you can open the window with the help of the fan to cool down. Ca marche! But ours is on the 3rd (In France, it's 2nd). We have to close the window during our sleep. Inconveniences: no hairdryer, not enough sockets for recharging computers and cellphones. (Only one extra, besides those for the TV, fan, and other appliances in the room...) The hotel is close to the station, but a bit far from the vieux Lyon. The people at the counter are friendly and very helpful, which is the plus!

My friend and I had a lovely stay at the Mercure Lyon Grand Hotel Saxe Lafayette. We could not have asked for more. The staff (both in housekeeping and front office)were very helpful and friendly. One of the receptionists gave very good restaurant recommendations! All of which were brilliant suggestions!!!! Our room consisted of two double beds which were humongous! It was very spacious and the bathroom was nice and clean. I believe the rooms are have recently been renovated, and this certainly made our stay much more comfortable as everything felt brand new. This hotel was about a 15 minute walk to the Lyon town centre and tourist information centre (It was a nice stroll via the river) and also about a 10-15 minute walk to the Grand Lafayette shopping centre and main train station to Paris.Very convenient. Overall we enjoyed our stay at this hotel and I would not hesitate to book my stay in Lyon here again.

My husband and I traveled with his brother around France. The hotel is a five or ten minute walk from Gare de Lyon Part Dieu, which is a major train station with an express train to the airport and to many international destinations. There are also many city buses outside the station. Perfect for a night or two to rest before heading to your next destination. There were a few restaurants near the hotel, as well as a big mall. We walked to downtown Lyon in about 30 mins, but there are also buses to take easily. The room itself was very clean with good Internet and three comfortable single beds. For our group of three, the room was perfect. The hotel is best for those wanting to be near the train station.

The reception staff at this hotel were really lovely - friendly, helpful and provide great tips on what to see in the city. The lady with the long, dark hair and glasses was especially good. The rooms were fine but it's difficult to stay here if travelling alone as there is no "Do not disturb" sign for the door (however after a "getting out of the shower" near miss with the cleaner the first day, I asked for my room not to be cleaned too early at reception and it was fine thereafter). There is some traffic noise and the inevitable noise from people going to and from room but other than that the location is good although a little away from the centre (20 min walk) but there is nearby bus and tram and a daily travelcard is only 6 euro.
