Hotel Hôtel Mercure Lyon Centre Saxe Lafayette (Lyon, France)

Guests said that everything is well maintained at this hotel, which helped to give them good impressions upon arrival and during their stays. It's clear that the staff members take a lot of pride into creating and retaining a good atmosphere for their guests.

Large rooms aren't common in France, but guests were very impressed with how spacious the rooms are at this property. Even when guests were staying with others, they still said the accommodations didn't feel cramped. Keep this in mind if you want space to enjoy yourself after a long day.

Guests liked that this property is in a relatively quiet area, but is still walking distance from the heart of Lyon. You can also get to some nearby shops on foot. There's even a grocery store close by so you can easily stock up on snacks.

Occasionally, guests said that the attitudes of the staff members were less than warm and welcoming. That was especially true at the reception desk. Some also said that the staff did not go out of their way to provide information or assistance.

Although this hotel has a swimming pool, you shouldn't expect to swim laps in it. Guests said it's a very small pool, and therefore, best suited for getting refreshed, rather than swimming for exercise.

If your opinion is like that of many other guests, you may find that the prices for food and drinks here are very expensive. That sentiment was especially expressed in related to the bar items, but some guests felt the same about the cost of breakfast.
