Guest reviews
Fabulous
Great apartment in an amazing location
Liked: The location is incredible. Right in the heart of Vieux Lyon, with our own view of Le Tour Rose. Short walk to Metro station and the Saone. Surrounded with shops and restaurants, there is also a nice boulangerie just around the corner. The room itself is full of interesting furniture, ornaments and paintings. In the photos I've attached the room is the one with lights on and the Tour Rose in the background.
Disliked: Could do with a little wardrobe and drawers for clothes. It didn't matter for 3 nights but next time if we stay longer it would help us to organise our things. I can't remember if the description mentions that there are quite a lot of stairs, it didn't bother us but might be difficult for some.
Liked: Très bel emplacement dans un bâtiment historique emblématique du Vieux Lyon, une tour célèbre chargée d'histoire. Pour les amateurs d'art et de patrimoine, c'est un lieu idéal. Le check-in se fait en autonomie avec un code, la clé étant disponible sous le paillasson. Cela m'a parfaitement convenu, car j'ai pu arriver à l'heure que je souhaitais. En revanche, il faut savoir qu'étant donné le caractère historique du lieu, de nombreux visiteurs viennent découvrir la cour intérieure du bâtiment. Par moments, cela donne un peu l'impression d'être constamment observé ou en état de siège. À mon arrivée, il n'y avait pas d'accès à Internet. J'ai appelé le propriétaire vers 23 heures et, après plusieurs tentatives, il m'a répondu en me disant que j'avais de la chance qu'il décroche malgré l'heure tardive. J'ai trouvé cette remarque assez cavalière. Le lendemain, il s'est excusé en expliquant que le répétiteur Wi-Fi était probablement défectueux. Cependant, durant les deux jours de mon séjour, aucun effort n'a été fait pour résoudre le problème. Je pense d'ailleurs que les voyageurs précédents avaient probablement déjà rencontré cette difficulté. Le propriétaire m'a expliqué qu'il fournissait avant tout un hébergement et qu'Internet n'était pas une priorité pour lui. À mon sens, aujourd'hui, au même titre qu'un lit, des draps et de l'eau, une connexion Internet fonctionnelle fait partie des équipements de base attendus par la majorité des voyageurs, en particulier dans le cadre d'un déplacement professionnel. J'ai également noté que le couvre-lit était abîmé. Par ailleurs, je préparais un salon professionnel auquel je devais participer le lendemain. Il n'y avait pas de fer à repasser dans la chambre; le propriétaire me l'a apporté seulement le lendemain.
Beautifully decorated suite in a prime location with a great host
Liked: Location, interior decorating, great sitting area and it was quiet with a comfortable bed
Disliked: The sleeping area is in a loft with little height. It works fine it you don’t mind bending over to get in and out of bed.
Liked: Totally unique, which makes it an unforgettable experience; the artworks, books, the fabulous building and its location make it a true lyonaise gem.
Disliked: I didn't 'not' like anything. The shower was ok, not terrific.
Liked: Hospitality of host, location. Comfort, charm and amenities.
Disliked: No internet access for tv or phone.
wonderful place to stay
Liked: The room's location and ambiance were fantastic. Frederic is a wonderful person, very friendly and supportive in every way. If you're visiting Lyon for tourism, you absolutely must stay in Vieux Lyon. I highly recommend Chambres d'hôtes Artelit. It's close to everything, and its location is fantastic. You're staying inside the Tour Rose, which adds a beautiful touch to your trip.
Disliked: It would be better if the wifi signal was a bit stronger.
