Tip top service received from the entire team this at incredibly well located, though slightly dated, hotel. Great bar on 8th floor to have an apero before heading out.

Go ahead and order! We stayed in a corner room with beautiful view of the Rhône river. The service is top notch, the steam room and pressure shower in the spa is available for no extra cost, the panoramic view at the restaurant is spectacular, great location, in short absolutely what you would expect. The only areas of improvement we could find is that the interior in the room shows sign of wear and tear, and several of the work out equipment in the gym did not work as they were not connected to electricity. You will not go much wrong with this hotel!

Enjoyed an excellent stay in the Sofitel Bellecour. Ideally located for exploring the beautiful & fascinating city of Lyon. The highlights of the hotel? The staff who were without exception professional, courteous and eager to please. The restaurant on the 8th floor provides wonderful panoramic views of the city and River Rhone and the breakfasts we enjoyed there on a daily basis provided a great start to the day. The staff were, in my view, exceptional.

Nice staff and lovely rooms. The breakfast room is gorgeous, although gets crowded at peak hours. The lobby and lobby bar however are VERY VERY cold, making it impossible to spend any time there. We were so disappointed in comparison to other Sofitels. We went as a group of a couple of rooms, and there was no place to sit together and relax; we would have hoped to spend time in the lobby or the lobby bar.

Great location and friendly staff. The room was a bit tired and worn with basic amenities. There is an open shower in the bathroom with just a curtain which was a bit odd. Fantastic restaurant on the 8th floor with an amazing view. Definitely get the breakfast buffet which was amazing.
