I stayed overnight here between dropping my rental car at Lyon airport (LYS) in the evening and flying from LYS next morning. This hotel came up when I searched for an Accord hotel near LYS and it has a week-day for-pay shuttle service. (It's a 15-minute drive in good traffic.) When I arrived at the hotel it was deserted. No one. No music, Nothing. I rang the bell at reception several times but it took 10 minutes for someone to arrive and check me in. By the time he arrived, there were three of us waiting. I had been advised by e-mail that the hotel restaurant was closed that night and I asked for options. I was told there was a restaurant 5 minutes away by car (I didn't didn't have one), McDonald's 100m away, or a cold plate at the bar. It was raining hard so I had the cold plate (which was quite good) with my complimentary glass of wine. The room was very comfortable and I slept well. I had asked for a taxi to be ordered for 0830 next morning, but when I went to the lobby at 0820 it had not been ordered. t was Sunday morning and several taxi companies could not provide a car. I eventually made it to LYS in time for my flight but this was far from my best Mercure experience.

The hotel matches the standards of the Accord network. A good mark for the restaurant where we had dinner: “tartelette de brocolis et gambas flambées”, “tartare de boeuf”, “dos de cabillaud au lait de coco”, “café gourmand”. Everything fine with only some reservation towards the “tournedos de rumsteck Montana” which requested some chewing. On the wine list, most of the “reds” are overpriced. At reasonable price, choose the “Côtes du Rhône” or the “Côtes du Roussilon”. Also, to notice that the bar offers a selection of beers locally brewed although it is still regrettable that no alcohol-free beer is available.

Everything was fine. Easy incheck, fine room, bathroom clean and frech. Bar and resturang exelent service and meny. The food perfect made. Parking outsider and indoor garage. Good for cars whit holiday stoff.

Recently built, this is an excellent hotel in the business district with weekday prices to match which makes it an excellent hotel for a good value weekend leisure stopover for this retired couple. Reception on both occasions that we stopped over were very courteous and pleasant. The public areas feel spacious through reception and bar to a restful restaurant/breakfast room. Rooms are stylish and practical apart from the shower which defies logic. Windows open with a great view of Lyon on the South side and aircon works well. Did not sample supper, but breakfast was plentiful, varied and enjoyable. Very accessible from junction 8 on the Lyon Peripherique with secure parking, it is a convenient half mile from the motorway so we slept very soundly on comfortable beds. Will be delighted to make another weekend return.

A very warm welcome and coffee whilst I waited for my room to be ready. Evening meal in the restaurant was good with ample choice. Shuttle bus to the airport is not free but at 5 euros is well worth it - and almost certainly cheaper than a taxi Bedroom (privilege) was spacious and was what I expected having stayed in similar rooms in Mercure hotels before
