Hotel Charlemagne By Happyculture

Stayed for two nights and absolutely loved it! The hotel is incredibly convenient—right across from the tram stop, making it super easy to get around Lyon. There’s a pharmacy, a bakery, and a supermarket just steps away, so everything you need is within walking distance. Breakfast was generous and varied, with fresh pastries, fruits, and hot options—perfect start to the day. I upgraded to a room with a balcony for €10, and it was totally worth it. Waking up to coffee on the balcony with a view of the city was such a treat. The room was spacious, quiet, and well-appointed. Great value for money, excellent location, and a fantastic stay overall. I’d definitely come back and highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Lyon.

Slo Lyon les Pentes

First time staying here and overall, I'm really pleased! The bedding is super comfortable, and the dorms are spacious with a peaceful atmosphere—everyone was respectful of others' rest. The bathrooms are clean, showers have consistent hot water, and there's a hairdryer available, which is a nice touch. The only minor issue is that the pancake machine in the breakfast area is awkwardly placed, making it a bit tricky to use. But honestly, this doesn't take away from the great value and vibe of the place. It's well-located for exploring Lyon, and the staff are friendly and helpful. I’d definitely come back and recommend it to fellow travelers looking for a cozy, budget-friendly stay.
