ibis Lyon Villefranche-sur-Saône bintang 3

Friendly welcome at the reception, food in restaurant also good. Waiting staff was a bit hasty. The rooms were clean but very very noisy. You could hear everything from your neighbours and the airconditioning was making constant hissing sounds. No need to set your alarmclock, the checkout of your neighbours will warm you.

We arrived after an 8 drive from Spain. Reception was empty. A young lady then appeared - and disappeared again. She the reappeared carrying drinks to a table. Next she appeared with a cloth and cleaning fluid and went to wipe a table. It was over ten minutes before she came to deal with check in of guests. It appears that Reception is also required to staff the bar which, on a busy weekend night with lots of arrivals is crazy. I have to say she didn’t seem bothered that reception was filling up with arrivals. Restaurant was good with staff trying to deal with a gale outside which was making life difficult. Food was good. Service from our young waiter was great - he was efficient, friendly and good fun. Maybe promote him to a job in reception!

I chose this hotel because the restaurant Courtepaille beside the hotel. It was a disaster due to bad service and very unclear prices such as EUR9.50 per glass. When I asked the restaurant staff they said the higher prices was due to a shortage of wines in France which is absolutely false.

Upon arrival we were confused as the car park had been closed slightly but it was open so we spent 10 mins trying to figure where to park but sorted in the end - we noticed we weren't the only ones to circle around trying to figure it out. Check in was easy and the man who checked us in was friendly. There were markings on the floor and good Covid measures in place. We were on the 3rd floor and we used the lift to carry our luggage - it is very small! The room was spacious and very clean. The beds were comfy and the bathroom was brilliant. We both had a very good nights sleep which was much needed after a few full on days at Disney before we headed back South again. We ate at the hotel restaurant for dinner and it was excellent! I wouldn't bother with breakfast, it really was not worth the 21 EUROS for a yogurt and a pastry.. also we weren't keen on the buffet set up as we saw other guests not following the procedures and touching food but not taking it. Car park once found was secure and felt safe leaving my car there. The hotel is kind of in an industrial looking estate and not much around, we did go for a little walk after dinner.

We needed a stay over night in an easy hotel when driving through France. This is simple, clean and handy hotel just of the motorway and we liked the stay here very much. It is great value for money, room is nicely decorated, option of breakfast, parking and all you need in a practical hotel of this type. Would stay here again. Great for stays like this.
