The room was very spacious and had a handicapped-accessible bathroom. The environment was unbeatable, and the transportation was super convenient, with both the train station and subway station nearby. The only downside was that I requested room cleaning at the front desk, but it wasn't done. Overall, it was a good experience.

We had a wonderful stay at Hotel Charlemagne By HappyCulture in Lyon! Everything exceeded our expectations. The hotel is modern, clean, and very comfortable, with spacious rooms and a peaceful atmosphere — a real plus in the city center. The location is perfect: just steps away from the Perrache station, tram and metro stops, and within easy walking distance to the old town and the riverside. There are also plenty of restaurants, cafés, and shops nearby. The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful, and they kindly allowed us to check in early at no extra cost. Breakfast was delicious and offered a good variety. Overall, this hotel offers excellent value and a perfect base for exploring Lyon. We’ll definitely stay here again on our next visit!

Conveniently located near the main station and a supermarket. The room was well-equipped with a microwave, induction cooktop, and frying pan, which was great. I also appreciated having a separate bathroom and toilet. (There was a mix-up during check-in where they didn't have a room with two beds ready for us, which caused some hassle, but I think the room we ended up getting was an upgrade.)

The room was clean, but the temperature was too cold, and I caught a cold. The complimentary coffee in the evening wasn't very good. Having a refrigerator and kitchenette in the room was convenient, but the room was generally small. There was a bus stop right in front of the hotel, which was very convenient for getting around.

II’m Joseph,
The hotel was very accommodating. The reception was well organized, and the staff were professional and well behaved. I stayed on the seventh floor, and my window faced the main street, offering an amazing view. I really liked the color combinations and the overall layout of the hotel. The bathroom was simple yet very well maintained. The shower was equipped with a water-saving system, which I appreciated. The bed was extremely comfortable, and I had a wonderful experience overall. On the day of my departure, I paid €93 for transportation from the hotel to the airport. I recommend checking alternative transportation options in advance.

I love this hotel. Take some walk you can get to metro station then visit many places! Vieux lyon , Fourviere, the halle de Lyon , parc de tete d'or . There are everything you need , microwave, TV water boiler, refrigerator, hangers, a cabin for cups ,plates , and cooking stove . This is the hotel I have seen that offers most for the customers !impressive The only point I could pick is that it is not 24 hours reception. When I got there ,it already evening 10pm. I can only contact by phone and follow the instructions by calling But the problem is I couldn't call when I don't have roaming nor French Sim card . This is quite nervous for me... i even not good at english numbering ,so if you couldn't really speak english nor french . Please be careful not to check in out of working hour ( it would be better if there is more urgent contact way )or maybe this is my problem.... Luckily I met a realllly kind customer, who helped me make the call and solve the check in problemwith me . Without him ,i can't imagine what would happen I mean .I really appreciate him (not sure if he would see this )also this kind gesture create a great impression to this trip !
