Park & Suites Lyon Part Dieu

Nice hotel...nice area

The 2 bedroom suite was perfect for 4 people. It was clean and spacious. The staff was very helpful, giving us advise on how to get around. We used the sauna and jacuzzi. Make reservations in advance if you want to take the dinner cruise.

Nice place if you need to stay near train station

This is a pleasant, clean, modern hotel. It's walkable from the train station if you don't have much baggage, so fairly convenient for that. It's not an exciting area though, so if you're hitting Lyon (which is way underrated!) to see the sites, I would recommend something closer to the historic center.

Good Hotel, some concerns

I had a great deal since hotel.com offered 3 nights for the price of 2. Had I paid the full price, I would probably rate it as 4 on the value on the price paid. I liked the fact that Part Dieu is not as tourist-oriented as the Lyon city centre. The hotel location is convenient from Part Dieu train station, which is only a stone-throw away from the city centre. The walk to the hotel from the train station was approximately 10-15 minutes. Not completely advised to walk in the mid-winter. There is no place to eat nearby, since this part of Lyon seems to be more like a residential area except for the commercial district near the train station. There were plenty of cafe and restaurants in the shopping mall but it's not a few min walk. The hotel room itself is quite nice. We were in the studio room but with kitchenette and very nice bathroom. Unfortunately the room was facing the railway, so we could hear the train until quite late in the evening (past mid-night). It didn't bother us too much but if you are sensitive to noise, make sure you get a room on the other side of the building.

The hotel by the train station

It is very noisy to sleep during the night if your room is facing outside, no matter which direction, and which floors. Even we changed room to the not direct facing train side, still very noisy. But the suite is very nice and with all the equitment you need to cook and live. Free cable internet is nice too. However, the front desk is not very friendly, and sometimes they will be away for a long time. The night I checked in is Dec17th, the lady is kinda rude. But the morning of Dec18th, the guy is very nice and helpful. As a tourist, when you get to a new place, you really rely on local people's help, so front desk is the place I want to get the most information.

Good room for the money

We stayed at this hotel on our way to Paris from Italy for one night. I would return to this hotel, but would insist next time they honor the non smoking room we were guaranteed. Our room had been heavily smoked in although they said it was one of their non smoking rooms. They were not able to accomodate us in another room for the night so we stuck it out. The hotel was extremely clean and was located in a safe area. The staff were friendly and spoke English.
