"I was kind if skeptical about this place because of the low price and its proximity to the train station. Wow was I wrong! We loved everything about this place. Directly across the street from the train station. Check in was quick and friendly. The room was very modern with comfortable beds, great linens and pillows, awesome shower with great water pressure. Extremely quiet and you can set the AC to be extremely cold if you want. Convenient outlets by the bed along with full light...
"Room was outstanding. Beautiful and spacious. Only issue was they simply forgot to clean the room one day. No explanation “just a mistake. “ that shouldn’t happen at that level of a hotel.
Otherwise it’s a great property"
"Fantastic staff, beautiful rooms. Not super close to main part of Lyon but easy to jump on ebikes and ride beside the river safely and beautifully in to town all times of day. Was disappointed the restaurant and bar were closed during our stay because it was "slow summer" would have appreciated if even the bar stayed open so there was some type of drinks available because there isn't much super close in the area. Would recommend the hotel!"
"A beautiful hotel with so much history. The rooms are renovated but still have so much of the original feel. Shower is great. The owner is so lovely and took the time to be so welcoming and help us figure out the city. The outdoor door is the only challenge. We should have asked for two keys. "
"Uiterst vriendelijk en behulpzaam personeel! Het gebouw was indrukwekkend en mooi en het zwembad en de wellness zijn zeker pluspunten bij een verblijf in een stad."
"Hotel des Celestins is an absolute gem in central Lyon. We found the staff were extremely friendly and helpful and the extra touches added to the rooms made us feel at home. "
"Service was great. Loris and Salem made our stay memorable. This property has an amazed location in Lyon. Just the fact to be very close to the train, tram and metro station saves anyone time. Also, this property offers an amazing breakfast. We had a great time. The only thing that we even know with advance was that the property lacks of A/C which it is an inconvenient during heatwave in summer. Thankfully, it will be probably added in 2026."
"This a lovely little treasure in Lyon! Very helpful staff, comfortable beds and room with a great breakfast. Rick Steves recommended it, and so do I!"
"Fabulous place to stay in Lyon. Walk to
Everywhere or a tram out the front if you need it. Staff are amazing - we arrived before 11.00am and we were checked in super early. Our room was spotlessly clean with everything we needed at our fingertips. The air conditioner was awesome - it was a 38 degree day and we were comfortably cool in our room. Thanks guys, we’d definitely stay again."
