10/10 Exceptional

Fabulous boutique hotel, walkable to all of Lyon’s sights. Fabulous dining nearby at all of the authentic Bouchon’s.
Kelly, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Fun hotel with quirky layout. In the best part of old town Lyon.
Richard, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Wonderful stay

Lovely small hotel in great location. Loved the free extras of water bottles for the room. Spacious rooms and really appreciated the separate bathroom and toilet in ours.
Maria, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great location, clean room, spacious for a family of 4.
Nilima, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Loved this hotel! It was central to everything and very walkable. We had a car and were able to park, but they do need to figure out a way to give your pass for parking without having to return it because you can’t easily drop up to the hotel The staff were very sweet and the hotel was so cool and eclectic would definitely stay there again

Sheri, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The hotel more than met our expectations. Our family of 4 stayed in the room on the 4th floor and it had plenty of room for all of us. Would definitely stay again.
Alecia, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Being in a very old building meant the room was unique. Some good points: excellent lighting, many electrical outlets, an espresso machine. Also although this was the Vieux Lyon area with many bars and restaurants, the double windows meant it was very quiet. Even within the room, one could not hear anything from the toilet room or bathroom room.
Janice R, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

Ideally situated in Old Lyon, however the hotel is very small. It's a 4* hotel & the room was well-equipped but there was no storage space. As an internal room, the only window looked out onto the stairway so you needed to keep curtain shut for any privacy.
John, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great setup for family. Really liked decor and layout of hotel. Nice amenity to have sink in room and water flat and bubbly to put in glass bottles to take to room. Very clean and convenient.

10/10 Exceptional

The hotel is newly renovated and they did a great job. We loved the themed rooms. The welcome gift was a nice tough. The breakfast was good. The area was safe and there were a ton of options for food and sightseeing, all within walking distance of the hotel. I highly recommend staying at the Acadamie Hotel Lyon

Very quaint hotel in fabulous old town. Staff were great, and room very clean. Only issue was a/c not working yet, although listed as having a/c. However, locacation and character won out.
