Ibis Styles Lyon Croix Rousse bintang 3

Beware if you think that this ranks with other Ibis Styles range hotels. It is a former Kyriad hotel that suffers from lack of investment. On the plus side, the breakfast area is good and the food on offer provides an excellent start to the day. The staff were great. The beds were comfortable. On the minus side the rooms are small and poorly furnished ( no bedside tables, only one chair between 2 of us..) The bathroom was modern but poorly ventilated and tiny. The underground parking was a nightmare. Getting our SUV into the small spaces was a challenge and getting from the car park up to the hotel was via a very dark spiral staircase. I found the experience really stressful and not worth the price we paid. Avoid.

In my opinion GOOD + very near the metro station 100m aprox + tv, A/C, fast internet wifi + elevator for 6 level building + hair dryer in the bathroom + very nice design + Hot water comes after 10 seconds (and we stayed at the 6th floor) + shower doors open very quiet, fast and precise + lots of lights everywhere so you can see very good + good breakfast (that is relative) but i think there is enough food: milk, soya milk, fruits already cut in glass, pancakes, butter, yogurt (3 kinds), fruits as they are, ham, eggs, cheese, cereals (corn flakes, granola, chocco pops), dry fruits, croasants, cakes, etc, coffe, there is even a machine that makes orange juice from fresh oranges GOOD/BAD +/- no ventilator in the bathroom (very quiet but also a bit of steam) +/-The reception works only from 7 until 22 o'clock BAD - no wardrobe, only some kind of hanger with coat hangers; it's ok if you are staying for a citybreak, but if you stay for a week or more there is not a lot of space (it depends of what kind of person you are, style, etc) - very used (hat is good and bad in the same time). Very used could mean that a lot of people are staying there because it has a lot of advantages but bad because are a lot of scratches, windows that close very hard, walls, rugs, etc hit, with spots etc - bathroom is very small - small rooms (i think ~15 sm) - in the 4 days we stayed there, no cleaning was made in the room

Basic room, but slept very well. Reasonably priced we paid 84euro including breakfast for 2 for an overnight stay. Requested extra towels and pillows prior to arrival, which was all taken care of, and then our son, who we were over to visit, joined us for breakfast with no hassle. If we were ever in Lyon again we would stay here again. Just be aware, we are not very good French speakers and the taxi took us to the wrong hotel as there are two with very similar names...this Croix-Rousse and Hotel de la Croix

Booked here in January for a November stay. One reason I booked was that Accor advertised this as a future Ibis Styles. The transformation still hasn’t taken place and the hotel is in need of a makeover. But I’m still pleased we stayed here. Good price, friendly staff, generous breakfast, very near metro and close to the interesting Croix-Rousse quarter with its urban art, excellent market and good tourist free bars and restaurants. The breakfast included excellent scrambled eggs and good sugar free muesli plus nuts and dried and fresh fruit. There is a kettle in the room, but it is let down a little by the drab decor and some fixtures half hanging off.

Just stayed for a couple of nights. Staff courteous, room small and a bit dated, shower column missing so unable to take a shower properly, but it was clean. There is a tea tray, but only paper cups provided! We booked an underground parking space, which was very handy in a large city; the parking space was secure, but a little cosy for a 4x4 vehicle - height limit for vehicle is 1.9m. Breakfast OK, and price wasn't too bad for Lyon
