We only stayed here for one night in a suite, but the room was very nice and included a kitchenette complete with washing machine. I would stay here again and hopefully see more of the city and surrounding area. Staff was very helpful and spoke sone English.

Very good location. Very friendly reception. Good breakfast. Broken dish washer cart wheel. Very dirty curtains. 2 times fake fire alarm out. 1 morning cold water shower.
Not exactly the best as property was full for the night that we were there. Given a room that was same level as the reception and had a stale/ musty smell. Error on our part also as we fail to notice that room was not air conditioned and was only equipped with a desk fan. Food rubbish under the sink from previous stay was not cleared.

Not as advertised
Not as pictured. Quite run down and dirty, No air conditioning and only one electric fan for a one bedroom suite. Very hot.
After contacting hotels.com to try and cancel our stay (conditions were so poor), the hotel offered another room with air conditioning for 30 euros per night. Funny they did not offer that directly to us when we gave feedback to the desk. The upgraded room was much better.
But overall, would not recommend as whole property quite dirty and run down compared to the photos online - not as it appears. Would not stay again.

Overpriced and not for a family
Staff we friendly and professional and the property is in a decent location. However its very noisy. The apartment we had needed maintenance desperately. Bedroom window didnt seal properly and only 1 out of 4 heaters worked .there also seems to be no ac and would be unbearable on a hot summers day. The bed was also unbelievably hard and very uncomfortable

The room is basic, sounds isolation is not so good, can hear the noise from the street, next door neighbor, and outside corridor, cleanliness level can be better, like clean out the dust between the fridge and cabinet, breakfast is very basic
Everything about our stay was fine. The personnel was very friendly and helpful. We loved the apartment we stayed and the location of the hotel was perfect.

I checked out on Sunday morning, but the person at front desk arrived after 7.
It was okay for me, but if I wish to checkout earlier, that would be a problem.
And no air conditioning at Lyon in summer time is a little bit uncomfortavble.

First arrived, I have been given studio room without air conditioning and the room was really smelly badly.
The front desk told me was full that night and will changed me the next day.

Overall, very much disappointed to be stay at Ascot group hotel!!!

Kind of disappointed. They gave me the first floor room next to the park. People played basket ball until after midnight. Couldn’t sleep because of the noise and I had to catch an early train in the morning :( didn’t get enough sleep.

The room was tiny and had no air conditioning. We had to leave the one small window open all night for fresh air which meant listening to the garbage trucks. The toilet opened into the kitchen. The room looked nothing like the online photo.

An excellently located little studio. Just enough space for 2 for a few days, near lots of restaurants and shops and an easy walk or bus/tram/metro to the sights of old Lyon.
Tea and coffee are not supplied within the room so worth bringing along to save on food waste or paying for breakfast downstairs in the morning.
We enjoyed the convenience of being able to cook but the support of a front desk and on hand staff team who were friendly and helpful.

Spacious room, adequate kitchen facilities for our 3 night stay. Complimentary drinks in the breakfast area (at non breakfast time) were an unexpected bonus when we returned at night. Tram and metro stops were 3/4 minutes from hotel.

The hotel was in a good location close to the train station and within walking distance of Old Lyon, but for a cheaper price. I enjoyed having the option of a kitchen so I could cook meals as I desired. The room was nice enough, but on closer examination showed signs of disrepair (peeling paint, cracked and yellowed light fixtures, grime around the shower, hole in the middle of the comforter, etc.) but still a comfortable enough place to stay.

Really liked the room and amenities, we would have loved a tea or coffee pod though, it would have made the difference. Having said that the surrounding businesses were fantastic sources of delicious food.
Great laundry, best driers ever.
Apartment was perfect for our visit to Lyon. Bed was comfortable and that is what mattered.
Close to restaurants and shopping so easy to get around and make the most of our stay.
Great location in the city, sparkling clean, friendly and efficient staff, les Citadines was a great place to stay in Lyon.

A Good Apartment Hotel
This is a reasonable apartment hotel near Part Dieu Train Station. Les Halles de Lyon Paul Boscuse is just one block away, and there are a few other grocery stores nearby. It is easy to get whatever you want and prepare meals. The only drawback is the lack of air conditioning. I stayed at the end of August, but even when the outside tempreture went down to about 17 or 18 degrees centigrade, the building itself had been warmed up, and inside the hotel room, I felt like it was about 26 or 27 degrees. I had open the widow for several hours before the room temperature to go down. I may come back to this hotel for the future, but I will avoid the summer months.
The stay was perfect. The room is spacious, the bed(s) very comfortable and the room was clean.
We were at first concerned by the lack of air conditionning in the room as it was Summertime, but the fan did the trick! It even had a night mode which kept us cool whilst being quiet.
