Le Royal Hotel Lyon - MGallery Collection
"Very nice hotel, but the staff were not particularly friendly or helpful. It was quite hot while we were there, but the air conditioning was not operational. Our room faced the square and it was quite noisy. Not sure I would stay here again."

"Helpful staff. Room initially was for handicapped— so we had to move. Room large and bed comfortable. Shower large but extremely slippery (needed rubber mats). Closet space too small for 5 day trip. Buffet breakfast very nice with custom cooked omelettes."
