Hôtel des Célestins

We spent four enjoyable nights in a superior room at Hotel des Celestins. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The hotel is very well located and we walked everywhere. Right around the corner is a fabulous boulangerie, Pignols, where we got wonderful pastries and coffee in the morning. The hotel staff was very helpful whenever we needed touring advice. We highly recommend Hotel des Celestins for your stay in Lyon.

The location for this property is ideal. It’s in an excellent part of Lyon for exploring the city. We are on a budget holiday but if you can I would spend a little more for a larger room. The basic rooms are very tiny. I also feel the incremental rate to have breakfast included is too high for the basic breakfast provided. The staff are all kind and helpful. Rooms are very hot and stuffy.

The Hotel des Celestines is a lovely older building that has been updated for the current traveler needs and comfort. The room was charming, excellent mattress and pillows, USB ports and plugs in various convenient locations, and bathroom updated. And then....so much storage space tucked into small places! Better than any other hotel we visited during three weeks of travel. |The staff were amazing!!! Helpful, checking with us to be sure all of our needs were met, and in a casual, friendly manner. Upon arrival, the front desk attendant was so thoughtful and kind, she helped our son provide a lovely surprise for my birthday!|The location is excellent! So convenient for restaurants, sights, markets, and metro.|Last, the breakfast was one of the best. The buffet and tables are tucked into a small space but the variety and quality of the fruit, eggs, cheeses, and pastry were lovely and delicious!|To the owner and staff: Thank you for a memorable and comfortable visit!

The location of the hotel is perfect. Easy walks to both the Saone and Rhône The room was large and one of the best we have encountered, with a nice roomy bathroom and many outlets for phones and electronics.|We parked at their reserved lot. |The only issue was the tiny space to drop off our luggage. Traffic is an issue. Also, more detailed instructions to the car park would have been helpful.

The hotel location is wonderful for exploring Lyon's historic sites, churches and Old Town. The metro and busses are close by, but we walked most places. The bed was comfortable and the updated bathroom was nice, especially the shower. We were lucky to have warm weather at the end of September, but unlucky that the AC is turned off for the season by then. Opening the windows overnight was the only option to cool the room, but that let the mosquitoes in :(

Everything was wonderful. Our train was delayed meaning we arrived after the office closed. They called me and we worked out how to get into my room even though it was going to be very late. Woke in the morning. The breakfast looked great but we were heading out on a food tour. They allowed us to store our luggage there while we toured the city for the day. At 6 PM we returned and picked up our luggage and went to the train station. The room was great. The bed was comfortable. All good!

Can’t beat the convenient location of this hotel. Close to funicular, Place Bellecour metro, and Vieux Lyon. Regular rooms are a bit small (we booked one regular and one superior), so I would recommend a superior or larger room (one of the suites). Breakfast was good and the manager (Laurent) is engaging and checks with everyone on how their stay is going.

This little gem of a hotel is centrally located in a gorgeous part of old Lyon. Each one of the rooms has a different name and a different configuration. We were in La Bouillote on the top (6th) floor - there is a lift to the 5th floor so be aware the if you stay in this room you will have to walk up one level - and it met our needs perfectly. The breakfast room is in the first floor and is a welcoming small room with windows out onto the street. The breakfast is varied and delicious and the boil-your-own eggs are brilliant. The owner, Laurent, and all the staff are helpful, friendly and attentive but never intrusive. We look forward to our next visit.

We two chose to stay in a regular room facing the inside court. Highly recommend for a short stay in Lyon. Convenient location, with easy and quick access to Lyon's main sites. Excellent experience and a great value. - Excellent modern bathroom with good quality towels. - Comfortable bed with good quality linens. - Very clean. - Elevator access to each floor. Front desk service was outstanding and friendly, including making dinner reservations for us for both nights of our stay. You have the option of paying on arrival, which allows a very fast checkout: just drop your room key at the front desk.

Oh my goodness, this little hotel is positively adorable. Tiny and narrow with four floors of clean rooms. Our two rooms were just perfect with everything we needed for our overnight in Lyon. Great location, super hospitality, reasonable prices, and clean comfort. I wouldn't stay anywhere else in Lyon!

A wonderful hidden treasure of a hotel in the old town. Parking is minimal but can be booked ahead but there is a secure car park literally next door in the square that is a mere 2 minute walk. The staff are amazingly welcoming, free wifi was offered as we arrived and a map of the local area. I was on the fourth floor and although the lift is abut small and rickety it is typical of the regions in France. The security is excellent ( double door locking system) and rooms are comfortable and clean. I had a view of the opera house from my window and tea and coffee making inn the room was appreciated Air conditioning and excellent cupboard spaces were excellent. There is also a safe in the room to lock away valuables. Highly recommended.

This is a very nice place to stay. My wife and I were there for two nights. We stayed in a suite which was nice sized, had a very modern bathroom and a great apartment feel to it. The elevator is small and bumpy but it serves it's purpose. The hotel staff was excellent. Very friendly and knowledgeable. She suggested a couple of nice places to eat and how to get around. The breakfast was nice and fairly cheap compared to places I have stayed.
