This stay was a nightmare. I traveled with a group of friends and booked two apartments at this property, but upon arrival, we found other people already inside our rooms. We tried contacting the owner all night long with no response. At 4 a.m., we had to scramble to find another hotel. The next day, the owner finally replied, blaming the mix-up on other guests who had mistakenly entered the wrong units (!!). She offered us only one of the two reserved apartments plus a small studio for two people—meaning we, a group of seven, were given space for just six. We ended up sleeping three in one bed, which was extremely uncomfortable. When we pointed out how unfair and unprofessional this situation was, she responded, "If you agree to stay here, don’t cause any more problems." That kind of attitude is unacceptable. I can’t recommend this place at all. The entire experience was stressful, disorganized, and deeply disappointing. Never again.

This hotel is an absolute gem—perfect for both budget travelers and those seeking a unique stay. Perched on a hilltop with panoramic views of Lyon, the scenery is breathtaking, especially at sunset when the city lights begin to twinkle. The location is fantastic: quiet and peaceful yet just a short metro ride from the heart of the city. The rooms are clean, well-maintained, and surprisingly spacious for the price. I loved the artistic touches throughout—the lobby and hallways feel like a living gallery, adding character and charm. Staff are friendly and helpful without being intrusive. It’s rare to find such value and quality in one place. Whether you're here for a quick getaway or exploring Lyon, this is a standout choice. Highly recommended!

Stayed at Spark by Hilton Lyon Park Saône and was thoroughly impressed! The room was brand new with a smart, efficient layout that made the most of the space—perfect for business travelers or groups. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and the soundproofing kept the room quiet and peaceful throughout the night. Multilingual staff, including Chinese speakers, made communication easy and welcoming. Breakfast was a highlight—abundant and varied, offering both Western and Asian options to suit all tastes. Parking nearby was convenient and hassle-free, which was a big plus for those arriving by car. Located near a serene park, the hotel offers a tranquil atmosphere while still being close to city attractions. Easy access to downtown means you can explore Lyon without stress. A great blend of comfort, convenience, and value—definitely a place I’d return to.
