Hotel Le Royal Lyon - MGallery

To say that this stay was exceptional would be an understatement. There are five star hotels and then there is Le Royal Lion. It has been a while since we last felt completely swept off our feet with service this stellar! It has been a while we have felt subject to the old school-James Bond- style-royal treatment. The breakfast is delicious and luckily they don't serve lunch and dinner, otherwise it would be impossible to stand on the measuring scale after this stay. Everything about the breakfast evokes the best possible attributes of French cuisine. Think: you wake up and finally someone had thought to bring the freshest croissants, the best jams, the coolest omelette - just for you The room was spacious really nicely furnished and it had everything needed. I didn't check if they had sewing needles and threads, but I am sure they had that too. The staff: patient, attentive, responsive and very very kind. They really made us feel like a million dollars! Thank you so much for being so kind!

Not every hotel in Europe is worth 5 star rating, but Hotel Le Royal definitely is! We booked junior suite and it exceeded our expectations. The view was over Bellacour square and we could see Lyon Norte Dame from far far away. Breakfast, as all other reviews mention, is exceptional! Breakfast service is fantastic, minute you walk in, girls come up to offer drinks, etc. We’ve been traveling for several days in France before we came to Lyon and this is the only hotel where we thoroughly enjoyed the room, bed sheets, mattress, environment of the hotel and the location. Also, we did not have any dinner reservations for the night we got there and the reception girl booked us Michelin star restaurant, which did not disappoint. The experience of dinner was superb!

Very well located in the beautiful city. Both concierge’s were very helpful but a few of the lady receptionists were rather superior … an unnecessary attitude which unfortunately we see quite often in our travels … smile more , engage and offer help especially if the concierge isn’t around to help with luggage ( as happened on arrival after a long journey)! The breakfast was expensive but good and the staff were lovely We had a very small room but it was fine for just one night … the cost for the dog was high ( given the cleaning was the same) and you pay extra for parking ( which we thought was included ) Good hotel in a lovely city

First of all I would mention the atmosphere, including great lyoneise style and design, very cozy and comfortable place. Location is in the right heart of lyon. Service was outstanding, especially by the young staff, they were just wonderful.

We actually booked a second night at the Hotel Royal and the Hotel is always our first choice in Lyon. Centrally located in the Place de Bellecour which is within easy reach of the Metro and the bus line from main line railway station. The staff are wonderful and will go out of their way to help and give information on the main attractions in Lyon. I also have to mention the breakfast, it has to be one of the best in the Hotels we have stayed in, fresh produce all round and a lovely display, I can highly recommend the chef made omelette, superb. This time I went for the junior Suite upgrade and it was well worth it.
