Hotel Mercure Lyon Centre - Gare Part Dieu

"Next to train train so great location. Our room was a superior and was great, very large as was the bathroom and separate toilet, all spotlessly clean. Good nights sleep no noise at all. We had a meal in the restaurant that was first class plus breakfast all first class. Would stay again."

"The Mercure Lyon Centre - Gare Part Dieu is exactly where you want to be if you’re arriving by train or planning onward travel. It sits literally beside Lyon’s Part‑Dieu station, right by the metro, tram stops and just a five‑minute walk from the Part‑Dieu shopping centre, one of Europe’s largest urban malls. This location makes it a strong pick for business travellers, city hopping or anyone seeking convenience above sightseeing charm. The welcome was warm and efficient, creating a good first impression. The is a nice seating area in the lobby which opens into the bar and restaurant. One hiccup: my Accor gift card couldn’t be processed easily at check‑in. It took several staff members attempting to apply it and they still ended up charging my credit card in full, requiring a refund. Not disastrous, but frustrating and unnecessary in a hotel of this calibre. My Executive Room on a high floor overlooked the train tracks, yet soundproofing worked well,there was no noise from departures or arrivals. The room felt spacious and comfortable, though the décor and furnishings leaned dated rather than stylish. The bathroom was well appointed, but the window lacked a blind, making privacy something you needed to handle creatively. There was a separate toilet room. The room came with everyone you would desire, with tea/coffee facilities and a fridge. A large screen TV was opposite the bed and a small couch offered a 2nd bed if required for families. Though the brown covering made it less appealing to use. Overall this is a functional hotel, but on the verge of feeling dated."

"Easy walk from the train station. The staff were all so friendly. The hotel has two swift lifts. Unfortunately, our room smelled of cigar smoke, but we were too exhausted to change rooms. Hotels really need a better method of charging offenders and thoroughly cleaning smoke smell from rooms. The bed was comfortable enough and had nightstands on both sides. There were power outlets on each side of the bed--perfect for two people to charge devices at bedside. There was a mini fridge. The room was very quiet! The bathroom had a shower only. The water pressure was ____ and the hot water stayed hot. The wall-mounted magnifying mirror was a nice touch. The free Wi-Fi worked well. If I'm in lying and need a hotel within easy walk from the train station I'd be inclined to stay here again--but only in a non-smoky room."
