Hotel Le Royal Lyon-MGallery 5 stars

Quiet, unobtrusive style and very French décor. Lovely room overlooking square and river, but no noise from street or big ferris wheel in square. Helpful staff and nice little extras.

It was my second time at Hotel Royale in Lyon. Both times I booked thanks to a promotional rate thorugh booking (otherwise it's above our travel policy). Very well located , very nice rooms (small but very comfortable) , very good breakfast, with a lot of choice both in saleted and sweet selections.

I understand the hotel is currently being renovated. Nonetheless,here some of the issues my wife and I experienced during our night (which were communicated to front desk with nothing more than a ''sorry'') No soap next to the shower One towel had weird brown spots (same also on the cover sheet of the bed) Not the fault of the hotel, but I booked my room through a third party, indicating the hotel had a gym. It appears the gym is nearby and you have to pay for it, which is a scam) Breakfast was great nonetheless

Forgot to send the invoice by email

I enjoyed a very good size of room with one of the most comfortable beds I have ever slept in . Everything worked fine except the glass door to the shower cubicle would not close properly at the bottom so there was rather a large puddle of water on the tiled floor outside the shower area by the time I had finished.The hotel handyman should be able to align the shower door hinges easily .This small problem should have been noticed and fixed some time ago. I dined in the Institut Restaurant which was a nice experience.

Very nice room and very comfortable bed.Staff helpful and friendly.Only a few steps from the metro and short walk to shops and many restaurants.We were in room 115 on the first floor and our only complaint was we seemed to be over the kitchen utility area and late at night and early morning there was a lot of banging which woke us up so recommend avoiding this room/first floor. Otherwise recommend staying here.

My first 5-star hotel experience here was an excellent one. The hotel is beautiful and the location is excellent, but most of all, the staff makes you feel like this is truly a luxury stay. The experience at Le Royal helped make my time in Lyon extra special. I most definitely would love to return. Thanks!

MOST IMPORTANT: We love the hotel, the team, the location, the beds, the breakfast and the bar. Could be IMPROVED: Having toilets separated from bathroom would be better...especially when being a working couple and needng to be ready early for meetings. The bathroom (room 109) was a bit small with no convenient/enough space near sink for personal items and no "patheres" , hangers. Bed tables could be more convenient if all lower part could be used for storage... une grande chambre mais avec peu de rangements pour les habits, as part des cintres.

Room 503 on 5th floor with balcony overlooking Place Bellecour. Comfortable room, good facilities. Friendly & helpful staff. Close to Metro system. Rue des Marroniers for restaurants only 2 minutes walk away Walking distance to Old town

The room was comfortable, with a good size bed and adequate although it would be nice to have china cups for the supplied beverages instead of polystyrene. The Reception staff and Concierge were particularly helpful and welcoming. Lyon is a wonderful city and the location of the hotel was perfect.

Room is comfortable and staff is helpful . It’ll be better if there are more hot options in breakfast .

Brilliant location- easy access to old town, shopping, everywhere in Lyon. Staff wonderful. Rooms very comfortable as well as having old world charm. Luxurious and very french. Loved the windows were doubled- so no sound got into the room at all- which was surprising given the location.

We stayed two times during our stay in France. The first time we utilized Diners Club points and paid for 1 day as we extended our stay due to my husband getting sick. Our room was lovely during that stay #309.The concierge was fantastic and secured a Christmas Eve reservation for dinner. The front desk was excellent as well. We spent time (and lots of €) in the bar and your mixologist was superb!(Pierre, I believe)Overall an amazing stay. This is why we rebooked when we returned on 2 Jan 2020 for 2 nights. I booked online and chose the same class of room that we had on the original stay. When we arrived the “manager” (I assumed he was the manager by the way he behaved) was very rude and indicated that we would have to pay more for a room like the one that we had before. In the end the room we got was on a lower floor and was a bit smaller than our previous #309 , and we paid more. We were tired and didnt complain as we were on our way home, but this experience left a bad taste in my mouth and made me feel overcharged.

We really enjoyed staying at this hotel. We felt so at home. The staff very friendly and the breakfast was overwhelming

Our experience was exhilarating. All important details were taken care of with style, taste and professionalism such as kind and attentive service, always with a smile, a super soft and clean bed, beautiful decor and very central location.
