Rhone Hotels with Gym

The hotel is in a great location—well-appointed, refined, and quiet, facing a park. You can catch a bus right outside, making it very convenient to reach the train station and the city center. The front desk and concierge services are very attentive and thoughtful. The hotel has a more classical style, and even the public restrooms are very clean. The room includes a separate kitchen, which is very convenient. However, there are a few drawbacks: 1. The air conditioning is not in operation recently, so the room feels rather stuffy. 2. The size and comfort of the pillows may vary from person to person, but I personally didn’t find them very comfortable. 3. The large shower head has some water stains, hence slightly clogged, causing the water flow to be less smooth.

The hotel is very close to the station, so the access is excellent. The room was spacious, clean, and well-equipped with amenities, and I was very satisfied. The staff at the reception were kind, and when they realized we were tourists, they kindly showed us recommended sightseeing spots and explained how to get around using a railway map. The next day, a staff member who spoke Japanese assisted us, which made me very happy. Thanks to this hotel, we truly enjoyed our stay in Lyon. I would love to stay here again when I visit Lyon next time. ありがとうございます！

Very well located and very comfortable hotel. Receptionist Ninno was very helpful with car rental and a day trip to Annecy and Ninno is a very cheerfull person. Everything was perfect.

The check-in went smoothly until the receptionist told us that we had requested a non-AC room (with the AC to be disconnected during our stay), supposedly based on a note from Trip.com. I told the receptionist that I definitely did not make such a request—especially not in the middle of summer—and asked to see the note from Trip.com. They couldn’t show me the note and instead claimed that, since I was now denying the request, the note had already been removed. We were checked into a non-AC room, and the hotel promised to send a technician to reboot the AC. That never happened. Eventually, we were moved to another room where the AC was already functioning. The whole situation felt suspicious. It seemed like the receptionist was trying their luck by placing us in a non-AC room. What’s even more ironic is that the new room had a welcome note addressed to me, while the non-AC room was completely bare, with no such note. We definitely won’t be coming back. The hotel staff came across as insincere and pretentious.

Goed hotel, meer dan goede service en een geweldige ontbijt

Our stay at Hotel Beau Rivage felt like a quiet pause along the journey. It’s the kind of place where you slow down without trying, simply because of where you are. The location is truly lovely—surrounded by nature, with greenery all around. It immediately felt peaceful, almost grounding, as if the hotel blends naturally into its surroundings rather than standing apart from them. One of the highlights was the view over the Rhône River. Watching the water flow by added a gentle rhythm to our stay, whether in the soft morning light or later in the day as everything settled into evening. It’s the sort of view that makes you linger a little longer, even if you’re just passing through. As a stopover location, the hotel worked perfectly. It was convenient, easy to access, and restful—exactly what you hope for when breaking up a longer journey. Hotel Beau Rivage didn’t need to do much to impress. The natural setting, the river views, and its ease as a stopover made it a calm and memorable place to rest before moving on.

We stayed at a double room in the Sofitel in Lyon for a total of 3 nights in the summer of 2023. The hotel is located just a few streets from the Place Bellecour which is one of the main squares in Lyon. It is also about 5 minutes away from many cafes, bistros and a large supermarket (Monop’) near Place Bellecour. The room itself was a fairly standard double room (approximately 20 square metres). The interior and furnishings of the hotel look a bit dated but they were fine and did not matter in any material way. The minibar is complimentary and it is restocked daily with bottled water (still and sparkling), fruit juice, coca cola, and dried fruits and nuts. The bed was nice and comfortable and the pillows were firm. Our only complaint was that the air conditioning was not very consistent and it would turn off in the middle of the night. It is not an issue if you are staying here in the winter but it made it difficult to sleep at night in the summer. The staff were all very nice and pleasant. The concierge was especially friendly and he helped us to store our bags and arrange for a taxi to the train station on our last day. We paid approximately EUR250 a night and we thought it was worth the price.

Everything was clean and I had a pleasant stay. However, the window blinds were broken so you could not sleep in darkness. The toilet kept making noises.

Quite nice. It gives off a friendly vibe and is conveniently located. Since it's an apartment-style hotel, the front desk collects a deposit upfront, which is then returned upon check-out. Those who mind this detail should consider it carefully. Otherwise, it's a very comfortable and pleasant hotel.

The check-in process. I arrived at 10 PM and discovered it was impossible to access the property without first completing an online registration to get an access code. The most frustrating part was having to pay the city tax separately online before receiving this crucial code. Why isn't this tax included directly in the total price when booking online? It would avoid cumbersome steps on a smartphone in front of the door late at night, especially when the room is already paid for. Automation should simplify the customer's life, not add administrative hurdles in the middle of the night. I do not recommend this establishment if you're looking for a smooth experience.
