Great location in town, very helpful and friendly staff. Room comfortable without being being lavish, nice to open the big windows and lap up the street atmosphere below. But good to close at night for quiet for sleep Bathroom a bit tight, to keep in mind. And no AC but this was late September so not an issue to close windows for sleeping. Room cool enough

Ideally situated in the middle of town. Friendly and helpful staff at reception. Good breakfast. Room clean but bathroom very small. Some noise from the street but not too bad, and i was only on the first floor. More noise from the room next door!

The communication from the staff before arrival was fantastic. I arrived after there staffing hours, but was given key pad codes the day before my arrival. They also send me information on which train and subway lines to use and costs vs a taxi. This hotel does no have air conditioning, but will supply fans. Unfortunately for me, I was in Lyon during one of the hottest weeks of the summer. Just beware, when booking this hotel of that risk. The bathroom was a very small area for only one. There was not a lot of places to put your personal items, but there was a desk immediately from the bathroom door, that I used for my items. The breakfast was great, and I require a gluten free option. The hotel went out of their way to accommodate and made certain that gluten free bread was available and other meal options, eggs, fruit, etc. I would visit this hotel again as a solo traveler. I did have a double bed and a large room.

The location is good, the staff are mostly pleasant, the breakfasts are good but are not included in the price. The rooms are small, bathrooms are too small and cramped, carpets in hall areas are very worn. The hotel needs serious upgrading. The area outside has late night into middle of night party goers making it very noisy.

Excellent séjour à l'hôtel du Dauphin. L'emplacement est idéal pour visiter Lyon le temps d'un weekend. Le confort est basique mais parfait pour qui ne cherche pas l'exigence. Chambre supérieur réservée de qualité, spacieuse, bruit léger mais convient pour qui n'a pas le sommeil léger. Petit déjeuner correct. Merci

The hotel is located right in the centre of Lyon, walking distance to all major sights. Easy check in and out, English speaking staff. Stayed for 4 nights in a single room and although the room was somewhat small, there was a bigger single bed, not just the regular one, with a comfortable matress. It seems that the room was renovated recently, especially the bathroom (very modern and clean).

Great location and staff, tiny room
Stayed in a “non-deluxe” double. Room and bathroom are very, very small but clean. Bed was very comfortable. They provided an oscillating fan which kept the room comfortable on a warm night. If you are traveling to Lyon to sit in your room this is not the place to be. If you are going to be out and about this is a good hotel at a great price.

Good location, needs an update
Given its location at the heart of Presqu'ile, the hotel is well-priced, and has reasonable on-foot access to the vieux ville. The entrance is a green portico on Rue Victor Hugo, about 100m south of Bellecour. Reception is on the first floor behind an access door for which you need to via a call bell, or have the code. Reception is fine - you need some French to take it all in. The rooms are basic, but clean. At the front of the hotel there is occasional noise through the night from the street. What is more bothersome though is the thickness of the walls between the rooms, or rather the lack of it. There is no sound insulation whatsoever, so you can hear everything that is going on next door. Everything. The shower cubicle is one of the smallest I have ever experienced, and with a shower head that would n't stay at anything other than its lowest height setting, it was not a great showering experience. The sideways jet of water from the shower head seemed to be perfectly aimed at my eyes, making for uncomfortable showering. I didn't do breakfast, so no comment on that. I think there may be better options locally.

No air conditioning in summer!
We just visited Lyon where it is 98 degrees. The hotel had no air and they only gave us a very weak fan. We couldn't open the window because of the street noise and also it was semi-broken. The room was sweltering and the front desk was not receptive to us asking for additional or stronger fans. When we asked to speak to a manager, they said no one was available and would not give us their phone number. They also told us we had to carry our suitcases up the stairs when we arrived because the elevator did not go to our floor-we found out later it did indeed, the person at the front desk just didn't know the code to use. Great location but horribly uncomfortable room.
