    Really great service at Sofitel!

    rating01 Apr 2026

    As many reviews indicate, the hotel rooms are tired and could use a refresh but this was all overcome by the wonderful service that we received in our 3 night stay here. Every staff we encountered was superb and offered helpful assistance. With our family of four, we had a Jr Suite and it was quite roomy. The bed in the bedroom was super fluffy and comfortable.I didn't expect this high level of service and was pleasantly surprised!

    Comfy and great service

    rating13 Feb 2026

    The hotel is cozy, the bar on the 8th floor is beautiful with a spectacular view, the staff is really great and the cocktails are great!There was a life singer all the evening, it was really great, she is really good! Only less: the rooms are a bit old with broken stones and painting, so would be good to have some renovation…Sofitel so the beds are very comfortable and as we were there 1 day before Valentine we get a special attention in the room, thank you! Breakfast is gorgeous with an amazing view!

    Severely outdated hotel

    rating22 Jan 2026

    This hotel doesn’t appear have been renovated since 1970- outdated, worn furniture and colours. Skirting boards and door frames coming off walls, stains and chips on every piece of wooden furniture, carpet wrinkled on the floor, and I upgraded to a suite. No mini bar, the supposedly high end restaurant had about 3 things on the menu- it was empty when I went and no wonder. They had tradies there so hopefully starting a Reno but years overdue. This is the only ugly building in Lyon- and it looks like it needs to be knocked down. Great view of the city from in it- but not looking at it or staying in it. Sofitel Lyon Bellecour, Service clients/Réception at Sofitel Lyon Bellecour, responded to this review Dear Guest,Thank you for taking the time to provide your feedback regarding your recent stay. We are very sorry to hear about the disappointment you experienced.We truly regret to hear that your experience and suite were not up to your expectations.

We sincerely wish we had had the opportunity to discuss with you during your stay, to better understand your expectations and respond to your needs in the most appropriate manner.We were also very sorry to read your feedback regarding our restaurant. Our dining offer includes three set menus as well as an à la carte selection with several options, and we regret that this did not meet your expectations on this occasion.Guest satisfaction remains our highest priority. We always strive to meet our guests’ needs, and we deeply regret that we were unable to make your stay as enjoyable as we would have wished.We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you again in the future and will do everything we can to make you live a more positive experience next time.

    Excellent location, good value but a little outdated.

    rating04 Jan 2026

    The hotel is very well located between both rivers and within walking distance from most sights. Although the hotel has some hints of luxury, it also looks a little bit outdated in some areas, The rooms are spacious, clean and nice. The hotel has plenty of ammenities.Staff were very nice and helpful. Also, for us the easy access and parking on site was important since we were doing a road trip through the region. Something more difficult for hotels in the old town. At a price of around 180 EUR per night I think it is still good value for money for this hotel category. Sofitel Lyon Bellecour, Service clients/Réception at Sofitel Lyon Bellecour, responded to this review Dear Guest,Thank you very much for sharing your impressions following your recent stay at Sofitel Lyon Bellecour. We are thrilled you enjoyed our central location in the vibrant heart of Lyon as well as the comfort of our rooms. It is a pleasure to know the convenience of our private parking contributed to your satisfaction. We truly regret hearing that our facilities did not fully meet your expectations. Rest assured that your feedback has been taken in consideration and will be included in our enhancement process. Nevertheless, we are delighted that our services contributed positively to your overall experience.We look forward to welcoming you back soon. Sincerely, Elfie Quality Manager Assistant

    Great Sofitel bed and river view. Very old n dated though..

    rating02 Jan 2026

    Stayed 3 days in suite room and standard room. I have never seen a sofitel like this one. The room is very old, the carpet old and brown, and the rooms are dark. That said, the river view from our room was lovely, and that was the highlight for me. The bed was also a proper Sofitel bed, soft topper, supportive mattress, soft comfy sheets. I didn’t sleep well the first night, partly because we checked in late and the room felt old and dark, but I slept very well the following nights.The lobby area is nice and new. The staffs are helpful.Had christmas dinner at les 3 domes, food was ok, i was expecting better as i heard it used to be a michelin restaurant.Breakfast was ok, too many people for too little restaurant. Love the restaurant view. Went to the lounge at night and the view is nicer than that in the restaurant.I searched the reviews and saw that they have renovated rooms, but i asked and the reception said there were none as the hotel are waiting for renovation. it will be a very good Sofitel when it is renovated. Sofitel Lyon Bellecour, Service clients/Réception at Sofitel Lyon Bellecour, responded to this review Dear Guest, We would like to thank for taking the time to share your impressions following your recent stay at Sofitel Lyon Bellecour.We are delighted that you enjoyed the comfort of our Sofitel My Bed bedding and the wonderful panoramic view of Lyon from our hotel.
