Novotel Lyon Confluence

This was by far the best hotel we stayed in for our two week trip in France. The hotel was connected to an outdoor shopping mall with lots of places to eat and enjoy. The hotel itself was spacious, clean and child/toddler friendly. They had a play area for children and the manager even gave my son some soft toys to play with. The restaurant food and bar were excellent. And finally the view of the Saone from our room was perfect.

It's clean and staffs were very kind. Big shopping mall is right near the hotel. The parking lot is shared with that mall. So, it's very convenient. I booked a room which included one double bed and two single sofa beds for my family. But, there were no sleeping gears for single beds. Except that, it was good.

A safe and secure property next to a decently sized shopping mall and Carrefour. The property was well maintained and in a recently developed, modern part of Lyon - close to the river. A pleasant and safe area to walk around at night. The main retail shopping area and old town are walkable, although quite far - but accessible by a short tram/metro ride. Parking was safe and convenient with access via a lift to the hotel. Reasonable value for money at EUR10 per night. The Breakfast provided a reasonably extensive choice of cooked food and continental patisserie, meats, cereals coffee/teas/juices etc.. The rooms and general areas were very clean and well maintained. The only negative was the room was very hot at night - air conditioning not working properly and opening the window had little effect despite being 7-9 degrees outside at night and 22 degrees during the day. In summary, I would recommend this hotel as a safe, clean, quiet place to stay, especially if arriving by car. I would stay again if I ever returned to Lyon on a family holiday.
