ibis budget Lyon Centre - Gare Part-Dieu bintang 2

Nice stay for a low budget hotel. I was expecting less and was pleasantly surprised. Rooms are small but well designed in terms of space saving. Clean Breakfast is not bad but no great variety of choices. Eco friendly They do give small bags with stuffs for kids. Made them really happy (sweets, soaps and an animal sponge for them to shower) Do not recommend for long stays however. Great for a weekend.

I was left waiting for 10 minutes in the street as sliding door locked and no response on the intercom. Was finally let in with the explanation that the front desk was busy with people checking in. There seemed to be one trainee there who could have taken responsibility for checking if anyone was waiting outside. Why could the door not be left unlocked since card access is needed for the lifts? Why at this stage of the pandemic does the Ibis Budget still not have its own entrance working? (It was noisy business checking in when two receptionists were both almost shouting instructions.) Why was there no notice outside indicating the intercom was not working? Other than that,standard clean, functional room. Overpriced at 99 euros.

Chosen for its low price and we quickly understood why, small room and bathroom, very simple breakfast, close to the station, the 2 positive points are the staff and the low price, we slept well but we will never come back

'Typical' Ibis Budget rooms: basic but offering all you need. This hotel is located at a superb spot: the (utterly overpriced) Rhone Express tram/train from the airport has a stop right in front of the hotel and it takes just a mere 2 mins walk to the Part-Dieu train station. Friendly staff, and clean rooms with a window that can be opened (which is a big pro, in my opinion). Breakfast is basic but that's what you pay for. Actually just one 'con' for international travellers: the tv offers about 45 French and just 2 English channels. No big deal: Lyon has got way more to offer than the tv in your room.

The location of this hotel is excellent, and the front office staffs are very helpful. Suppose the check-in time is 12 pm, I went there around 11 am, and I got an early check-in, that was out of my expectation; is definitely money worth, I highly recommend to everyone to Lyon!
