Mercure Lyon Centre Château Perrache hotel 4 stars

The building is right behind the Perrache station, easy reach from the city centre (10mins walk), the lounge is fancy and the room was spacious and comfortable

I spent two nights in the hotel during the fete des limiares. The hotel is installed in a historical building and rooms are modern and spacious. Breakfast is excellent. The only drawback is the difficulty in finding available parking spaces.

Did not meet the expectations I had.

As above. Would stay here again

Really liked pictures of the hotel on the website, as it's really stylish and contemporary. In the reality lobby was really nice, the rest was very old - rooms, fitness, entrance, bar. Disappointing - we were waiting 10 minutes outside the entrance door - noone was openening neither answering the phone. That was very frustrating and not even "sorry" after that from the stuff.. No hair conditioner, body lotion etc in the room - usually I am staying in Mercure and know that its always there, that's why never take those things with me. King size bed was made of 2 single beds, placed together - not comfortable to sleep at all. We could hear everything what's happening in the room from the left and right side... We didnt experience difficulties with parking, but our friends called 3 hours in advance to ask for the parking and were told that it is full, even though we've seen free places. After they parked in the street and asked to call them back when parking will be free, and the response was - you should check by yourselves... I think its not customer friendly at all. Will not be staying again.

I liked my stay there. The few things I did not like were minor, like for instance, at breakfast, guests need to prepare their own fried eggs! Original but too complicated as the frying pans are pipping hot, fingers get dirty when breaking the eggs (and there are no wet napkins around to clean your fingers). A Chef should be there to prepare the eggs or the omelettes. The 2 coffee machines absolutely need to have their temperatures adjusted as the coffees are not warm enough.

Good. The restaurant and bar service was a bit slow and at times there was no one serving

It’s not a 4-Star Hotel and they do not facilitate as a good 4-hotel should do. Reception was fine. Room was just OKAY, had noises coming in from the nearby highway however bed was comfortable. The shower room was terrible. The tap didn’t work properly and water was too hot that I literally burnt my fingers. There was no water pressure also. In short, my stay was horrific. I have been using accor hotels before and they maintain standards. It’s not even a 3 Star hotel and charging money like its a exceptional hotel.

No assistance with bags and aircon did not work. When we pointed that out réception acknowledged they knew that and we were relocated to another room, also no aircon. I showed my Accor membership card at reception when we arrived but it was ignored, obviously not recognised. We will not be staying with Mecure again

I was in Lyon for 4 nights for a sports activity. I stayed 3 night in the Ibis vaux le velin and 1 night in this Mercure in order to rest and be in the center. My stay in the Ibis was much better. The single room that I had in the Mercure was not good. Poor lighting, no warm water, no heating. However, after I complained the receptionist gave me a better room. He was nice but I wish I was given a good room from the start.

Nice hotel and great staff but unacceptable to have lukewarm shower water one day and COLD shower water the next.

Over seven years we have seen many changes. Economic times are showing. Sadly this was not the best. Thin plastic cups constantly leaking in our room. We are adult enough to use a ceramic cup! and a glass. Having used the same room before the faulty cystern was still there 3 yrs later! Our usual beautiful vista has not changed much. The current building works of rebuilding the station next door with hammer drills was a 7am wake up call we didnt need.

problematic at the beginning with your e:mail system during pre-purchase of room as I wanted to discuss access issues to the hotel it rejected the sent e:mails twice. But other than that first hitch, everything was very well done. My Mother wish to comment that the Breakfasts were very good. Highly Recommended. The Room was lovely. The shower floor was a little slippery. The Staff very friendly and attentive. My mother is already recommending the brand to friends travelling to Europe for Christmas. I noticed the room was a privileged room, but I still do not quite understand what le club advantages are available to members other than price when booking.

It was good but I prefer to be closer to city center about hotel location

Great location. Great view from the room. Nice staff. Walking distance to all of the sites and next door to the train.
