We stayed at Hotel Celestins on May 30, 2013. The hotel is located in a nice neighborhood in Lyon adjacent to many nice shops and galleries. It was easy walking distance to Vieux Lyon. The room was clean and the bed comfortable. The front desk staff spoke fluent English and they were very helpful. The towels were a bit thin... More

I stayed at Hotel des Celestins for two nights. The staff was helpful with questions and reservations and the breakfast was a good value for the selection. The best thing about the hotel was the location. It is convenient for walking to attractions and public transport. The room was clean but the bathroom could use some touch ups. There was... More

We enjoyed our stay in this hotel. The rooms were clean and comfortable. We had a DVD player which was a treat for us. Location is just off the main road but still quiet. Breakfast is fresh and plentiful. Would recommend.

I was lucky to spend 4 great days visiting Lyon and surrounding area, choosing Hotel des Celestins as my base while in town. Getting to the hotel itself was fairly easy right from Lyon–Saint Exupéry Airport. Once you arrive at the airport, take the Rhônexpress tram directly to Lyon Part-Dieu train station. When arriving at the train station, walk directly... More

Our room was compact (though not as small as some French hotel rooms I have stayed in) but clean, quiet and comfortable; larger rooms are available. The staff were very friendly and helpful. It is a really good location for exploring Lyon, sitting between the Rhone and the Saone, with plenty of shops, restaurants and museums nearby. We went pretty... More

Only spent a night...but very happy with the experience. Bed and pillows were offering the best comfort we had in a long time. Air conditionning was quiet and working very efficiently. Our room was giving on the street and was very quiet. Personnel was friendly and helpfull.

It's not much as you approach the doorway but the room was modern, spotless and very comfortable. Emelie at the desk spent a huge amount of time helping us book oyr train to France. She couldn't have been nicer really... More

This hotel is located between the Saone and Rhone rivers and just north of Place Bellecourt, so it is very easy to walk to the old city and to all the interesting sites. The building is old and charming. The room was furnished with antiques but also had a flat screen tv. The bathroom looked completely new, with everything sparkly... More
