Location convenient.....and that's about it.

I did save a lot of money on the advertised rate of this hotel, but I'm still not happy with the value. The Athena is fantastic for location, as it's right next to the train station, and the bus to Lyon St. Exup airport is less than 10 meters away. However, the conditions of the room left a lot to be desired. The "double" bed for 2 people was one of the smallest beds I've ever seen. The air conditioner did not work, the towels were old, worn and had holes in them. Plus the entire room had a strange odor. The staff at the front desk were helpful, although not overly friendly. Overall, location is the best part, but if you don't need that convenience, or you're thinking of spending more than 1 night, definitely stay somewhere else.

Great room for the money

We selected this hotel for the convenient location next to the Lyon Central Station and close walking distance to the city. The room was clean, comfortable and very quiet despite being so close to the station, we could watch the foot traffic in and out of the station from our window, which could open and had 3 layers of glass. Breakfast is served in the hotel for a separate charge but is well worth the money. Would diffinitely stay there again

Direct access to Part Dieu train station

This is a basic hotel, but selected for location so that we could get to the train easily in the morning. Room was small and would be uncomfortable for a longer stay, but clean and quiet and served our purpose extremely well. Breakfast was available at extra charge. Wireless internet is free of charge and signal was strong.
