“Location, location, location”

Lyon is a walkable city and this hotel is in the heart of everything. So convenient to explore the old town, all the restaurants and bars nearby and it's a hop skip and jump across the Rhone to discover the Parc de la Tete and the eastside of the city. It was about €70 euros in a taxi from the airport or €45 in an Uber. The hotel was clean and the room was comfortable, there was a mini fridge and YouTube and netflix apps available on the TV - I didn't have any issues. The room may be a bit small for some, but if like me you are just looking for somewhere to wash and lay your head at the end of the day, then it's perfect. I loved that the hotel provided glass 75cl bottles that you can fill with still or sparkling water and also fill your own bottles - This was so handy. The staff were all friendly and professional and I would like to give a special mention to Tomas behind the bar, who kept the rose flowing and is a skilled mixologist. There were just a couple of things that could be added - complementary bar snacks and a toiletry kit in the bathroom - shower cap, nail file etc. All in all, as a female sole traveller I had a wonderful stay and look forward to visiting the hotel and the city again.

One night in Lyon, hotel booked by the company. That said, the Mercure Lyon Plaza Republique is very conveniently located for the attractions and restaurants in Lyon. Our group pf eight arrived relatively late, 9PM, but check-in was friendly and efficient, so having paid our city taxes and with key cards in hand we were soon on our way to our rooms. The rooms are relatively small but perfectly adequate for a one night stop. Well appointed, clean and comfortable. A good sized bath room, nice shower, and despite facing the road quiet. A good night's sleep was achieved. Breakfast is set out in the ground floor bar area. Lots of choice and nice food. And as a Brit, it's always nice to take advantage of sitting outside on a warm morning in the segregated seating area on the pavement directly outside the hotel. Very happy with breakfast. The location was perfect. A five minute walk to a street packed with restaurants. And as a morning runner, just a couple of minutes from the river. Turn left, cross the road and the bridge and take advantage of the embankment path. For us, the Mercure was just right for our requirements. Liked it, and would happily stay again.
