    modern amenities
    small dining area

    Charming historical vibes fill the air at L'Académie Hôtel. My room felt modern yet cozy, equipped with a flat-screen TV and even an espresso machine. The decor blended beautifully with the building's history. Super convenient location near Old Lyon made wandering to cafes and shops a breeze. The staff, especially Vasselina at the front desk, stood out with their attentiveness. she offered great local tips. One downside was the breakfast area, quite small and uninviting, which limited comfort during mealtimes. I faced minor annoyances with the coffee service too. charging for a simple cup felt off. My family room was spacious, but navigating between rooms and furniture was a bit tricky given the layout. A fridge in the room would have added a nice touch. Still, I would gladly return due to its charm and easy access to local culture.

    espresso machine

    Just a reliable pick for a mini-vacation in Lyon with good value. The espresso machine in the room was a nice touch. Try a local patisserie for breakfast instead of the hotel options.

    This place suits me perfectly with air conditioning, reliable Wi-Fi, flat-screen TV, and 24-hour reception. On my first stay, the staff assisted with a morning wake-up call, which I appreciated. I highly recommend enjoying a local patisserie for breakfast. I'm coming back for a city trip.

    great location but lacking some amenities

    The location in Vieux Lyon made exploring the area easy and convenient. The hotel is newly refurbished, with chic yet practical rooms that ensure comfort during your stay. The staff was friendly and attentive, offering help whenever it was needed, providing a personal touch to the experience.

    Some amenities could be improved to enhance the overall experience.

    charged coffee

    Had a fantastic group trip to this hotel! We enjoyed exploring the charming streets and visited the Basilica of Notre-Dame de Fourvière and Parc de la Tête d'Or nearby. The room was modern, with an espresso machine, and we loved the convenient location for restaurants and cafes. The staff was super helpful!

    One downside was the coffee situation. they charged for a simple cup in the lobby, which felt a bit off given the price of the stay.

    Needs improvement
    5.0

    The hotel boasts a charming historical building dating back to 1406 with modern comforts that make you feel at home. The rooms are spacious, and mine had an espresso machine, which was a nice touch after a long day wandering through picturesque streets.

    While the accommodations have distinct character, the air conditioning was a bit iffy, leading to discomfort during warmer moments. the breakfast wasn't exactly worth the coin. overpriced for a light spread with limited options, leaving a bit to be desired. The room size can really cramp up when two people try to navigate with luggage, and the lack of a refrigerator is noticeable for longer stays. Plus, the courtyard view rooms suffer from a privacy issue when curtains are opened, which could use some improvement.
