The room and main bathroom was a decent size, although the toilet room was very tiny! Bed was comfy and we had a nice view of a park and church from our room and balcony. Room was modern and clean. Staff was friendly, breakfast was delicious with lots of items to choose from. There is an elevator but you must go through the lobby and down an outdoor covered walkway to another portion of the building to access it. There is a bar and restaurant on-site although the restaurant was not open for the few days we were there. There are several restaurants within walking distance. Public transportation within walking distance too. We drove here by car and fortunately there was free street parking over the weekend. Otherwise you pay per hour or day to park. We would stay here again.

We were extremely satisfied. The hotel's location is excellent, just a 5-minute walk from Perrache Gar Station. There is a tram passing in front of the hotel, and it is close to all public transportation options. We visited during Christmas, and it was also within walking distance of the Lyon Christmas market. Old Town is about a 15-20 minute walk. The hotel was very clean, and the breakfast was great!! The staff were very friendly and helpful. I had requested a room with a city view, and they arranged it for us. Despite being in the city center, the hotel was well-insulated from outside noise. We had a very comfortable and enjoyable holiday.

The hotel has a very good location if you want to be near the Perache railway station, but it is not so practical if you like to walk to other parts of the Presquile and Vieux Lyon because it is on the southern end of Presquile and you have to walk under or over the train station to get everywhere. We ended taking the tram and connecting with the metro just to get to Place Bellecour and then start our walking tours of Lyon from there. The rooms was nice, a good sized bathroom which seems to be recently renovated. The breakfast is great, big choice of food and drinks. The staff was very very polite and friendly.

We had an excellent stay at Hôtel Charlemagne by Happyculture. The location is fantastic, just a short 5 minute walk from Lyon Perrache Station where we arrived. There is a tram station located just outside the hotel too for travel around the city. The hotel is lovely inside. Clean, modern, and everything you'd want from a hotel. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Shower was hot and powerful. Luggage room for storing bags if you have a late flight/travel plans. Would happily stay here again if we were to be in Lyon again.

Spacious room with a balcony looking over the street. Comfortable bed, nice breakfast with savory items as well as the standard French fare. You can tell they pay a lot of attention to reducing waste at breakfast time, with dispensers for the jams, yogurt, etc. instead of individual containers. Location is good if you don't mind a bit of street noise. We parked right around the corner using meters.
