Too loud during the day

Sune G. Business - 13/10/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

As night-freight-pilots we NEED to sleep during the day. 3 of 5 days that was impossible due to construction on the roof or, after room change, street noise.

Dear Jesper, Thank you for your feedback regarding your experience. We are sorry to learn that you last stay at the Mercure Lyon Centre Saxe Lafayette did not unfold as expected. Being an establishment located in the city center, the street noise is obviously beyond our control. This is why we assigned you a room on the top floor of the hotel. Moreover, the hotel does not conduct the construction on the roof. The maintenance was ordered by the co-ownership of the building, which is independent of the hotel. We would like to apologize anyway on the inconvenience. We are hoping a better experience will result from your next stay, The Mercure Lyon Centre Saxe Lafayette Team.

Nice Location

Ralph Friends - 10/10/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

My friends and I stayed in the hotel for a weekend and our stay was satisfactory. The facilities and services meet the standard of Mercure Hotels and is aligned with the other Mercure Hotels that we have stayed in the past. The hotel is well located and is close to the Lyon Part Dieu train station and 10-15minute walk to the center of Lyon. The neighborhood was nice and has restaurants with a good walking distance around the hotel. There is also a grocery across the street which is practical for any needs during the stay. Globally the hotel lobby, coffee area and the rooms are clean and proper. In the room, we noted some areas that would need some repainting and refurbishing. There is also no table in the room which was quite unusual. Unfortunately during this stay I need to work for a couple of hours which was difficult sitting on the floor or on the bed. The overall services and stay was good and satisfactory with some areas to improve.

Dear B., Our heartfelt thanks for your feedback. We are very happy that your last stay at the Mercure Lyon Centre Saxe Lafayette was a successful experience and up to your expectations, starting with the overall cleanliness. The location is indeed a real asset, being a walking distance from the city center but close enough to navigate by walk. However, to answer your remark about the amenities in the room, you will find desk and chair only in standard rooms due to the lack of space in family rooms with two double beds, like the one you booked for your last stay. The lounge bar area is another option if you need to work during a future stay. Hopefully your next visit will be even more enjoyable, The Mercure Lyon Centre Saxe Lafayette Team.

convenient

Vincent D. -. G. Business - 09/10/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

Very nice room. main area for improvement is the ironing table & ironning device were very dirty (floor -1)

Dear Vincent, We are very happy to learn that you enjoyed your last stay at the Mercure Lyon Centre Saxe Lafayette. The whole team is committed to meet your expectations and provide quality services on a daily basis. However, we would like to apologize for the quality of the ironing devices and we will make sure to improve its cleanliness as soon as possible. Looking forward to experiencing new moments with you for your next stay, The Mercure Lyon Centre Saxe Lafayette Team.

ok stay

Bernd Business - 30/09/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

booked privilege room, good size but seems a little old/run down and is not what i expected of Mercure. found a pair of women's shoes in my room, which makes me wonder how throurough the cleaning and desinfection has been done. nice bar and friendly service. at check-out there was no record of my drinks at the bar (but of course I reported what I had consumed and paid for it) website doesn't mention that parking is valet only. when i returned my rental car one of the rims was scratched/damaged. i have no proof that the hotel valet did it (because i didn't check the car when he gave it to me), but i have no recollection of hitting a curb or anything similar.

Dear Bernd, First, thank you very much for your feedback. We are deeply sorry that our service wasn’t up to your expectations during your last stay at the Mercure Lyon Centre Saxe Lafayette. Regarding your experience with the valet service, it should be indicated on the hotel's website and we will try to fix it if it's not the case. Moreover, we will double check with the valets about the situation about the car rims. The unpleasant surprise upon arrival in the room is not a hotel's custom and we will make sure that it will not happen again. Obviously, all your remarks will be communicated to the affected services in order to ensure a better experience in the future. We are waiting for your next stay with us in order to ensure a better experience, The Mercure Lyon Centre Saxe Lafayette Team.

Very well located

Islem Families - 21/09/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

I am satisfied with the Mercure experience except for the fact that the parking fee was extremely expensive as we had to pay 28€ for a day whereas it should have been much cheaper or free of charge. The room was very clean, the bed bigger than the usual standards and the swimming pool smaller than in the picture. The breakfast was fresh and tasty in a classy restaurant but also noisy with a jewelry exhibition that spoiled a bit of the party.

Dear Said, We are very happy to learn that your last stay at the Mercure Lyon Centre Saxe Lafayette was an overall enjoyable experience, from the room comfort to the appetizing breakfast. However, we are sorry that the jewelry exhibition happened at the expense of your stay, even though it was confined in the hotel ballrooms. The parking fee of 28€ is adjusted to the average local private structures for 24h, and you can enjoy the proximity of your vehicle as well as the luxury of a valet service to discharge you from worrying about it upon arrival. You always have different options to choose from to park your car in or around the hotel. We are looking forward to experiencing precious moments for your next stay with us, The Mercure Lyon Centre Saxe Lafayette Team.

Good stay

We are looking forward to experiencing precious moments for your next stay with us, The Mercure Lyon Centre Saxe Lafayette Team.

I spent 3 days in the middle of the covid crisis, so my experience might not be representative. The security measures were standard or above.

Dear John, We are happy that our safety protocols implemented to counter the COVID-19 pandemic were up to your standards during your last visit at the Mercure Lyon Centre Saxe Lafayette.

Stop Over - Familie of 6 Persons

Katharina Families - 02/09/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

Rooms well equipped with two large double beds. Clean and comfy. Good Pool after long journey. In the aisle on the 4th floor air smells of cold smoke of zigarettes. Breakfast to expensive for us for 18,90 € each, because the boys are 15 years old. No youth price for families. (7 year old would have been free of charge at breakfast - thats great) Great located in the city centre.

Dear Katharina, We are delighted to learn that you enjoyed our large family rooms (with 2 double beds) at the Mercure Lyon Centre Saxe Lafayette. It makes up for a charming stopover during the holidays, as well as the indoor swimming pool. Hopefully the kids enjoyed this short stay to the fullest. Be assured that we will share your remarks regarding the breakfast to the concerned service(s). We are looking forward to experiencing precious moments for your next stay with us, The Mercure Lyon Centre Saxe Lafayette Team.

Quiet location near station and city centre,

Practical for a short and quiet stay in beautiful Lyon, good service, great corona safety.

covid rules are unberable

Alex Families - 15/08/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

The hotel is nice but I really can't stand all this BS around masks and the fact that you need to use them everywhere. The breakfast experience is totally ruined and makes me wanting to never do it again.

Short stay in Lyon

Arnaud Friends - 04/08/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

Convenient hôtel for a stay in Lyon for business or travelling Breakfast is a bit expensive for what it is and Covid restriction makes it less pleasant. Probably better and cheaper to go outside in a cafés for breakfast Room spacious but without any spécific charm or style Same for overall hôtel facilities But clean and staff very pleasant and helpful

Nothing fancy, but convenient

Jd Business - 26/07/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

We arrived much later than expected, Service team was in the lobby waiting for us. The very kind Valet took the key's from my driver to park the car at their safe parking area. The hotel is a safe walk to the main mall & lots of places to eat around the mall. Great accommodations too! Clean rooms & spacious. After a long ride from Germany to France this will now be out hotel of choice when we travel by land to Spain- Thank you so much for the lovely Stay!
