We recently spent 4 nights at the Pullman Lyon, 2 at the start of a trip along the Rhone River and 2 at the end. We were looking for the best possible option close to Part-Dieu Train Station and the Pullman exceeded our expectations. It is practically attached to the station and convenient for train connections as well as the RhoneExpress tram from the airport and trams/buses all over Lyon, plus the huge Westfield Shopping Mall across the street (which has a full supermarket). Although the hotel has clearly been there a while (from the look of the exterior) it has been extensively remodeled and updated. Despite a few interesting decor choices (color or fabric) that seem a little old-fashioned, the rooms are modern, very well-maintained, with great airconditioning, double windows to block any noise, and very nice modern bathrooms. There is an extensive breakfast buffet with very friendly service staff and the area never seemed crowded despite the hotel having two conventions during our second stay. The surrounding area is quite business focused, so there aren't as many restaurants very close to the hotel as we might have liked, but we had no problem walking to any part of the city, easily to the part beyond the Rhone, and even to Vieux Lyon. We would definitely stay here again!

“Very good value but even BETTER staff and sound proofing”

Stayed at the Pullman Lyon for two nights. It’s a nice hotel near the train station that offers very good value for the price.

Stayed at the Pullman Lyon for two nights. It’s a nice hotel near the train station that offers very good value for the price. That said the real reason to stay here is the staff (and amazing soundproofing if you like a quiet night’s sleep). During our trip, a friend traveling with us had some issues with a health condition. I have to give Supervisor Tiffany all the kudos possible for being kind and so very helpful. Seriously grateful to have stayed somewhere with SUCH a helpful person. Made all the difference. For another example, we got a bottle of Provence Rose to drink on our terrace (hint – get a terrace room if you can). We didn’t have a way to open the bottle. The bartender was happy to oblige and offered three really nice glasses because he said we needed nice glasses for a nice bottle of wine. He was also really fun to chat with. As for the sound proofing, there was a party below our terrace, but when we closed the door to sleep the sound was all blocked out. In sum, highly recommend this hotel and the lovely staff (especially Tiffany!). Only negative is if you need really cold AC to sleep. Whole hotel is set for more moderate AC, which works for me but not everyone. Lastly, we recommend getting a room with breakfast included. Totally worth the extra cost. Excellent breakfast!

“The most comfortable bed!!!”

Close to Train Station! Lovely hotel with one of the most comfortable beds I’ve slept in!! They have a mattress topper that I will be inquiring about, need to get this for my home! Dinner in the restaurant was great- good food. Hotel staff was great!
