A very friendly, charming, old fashioned hotel, for those looking for a quiet hotel in the western outskirts of Lyon. A bit tucked out in the countryside, but full of charm. A real swimming pool, which was quite a treat in late August. Rooms were clean but small, moderately well-equipped and comfortable. The reasonably-priced breakfast was excellent.

We want to start on a positive note by saying that while the couple who ran the place was very nice, this place was a big disappointment: it was run down, outdated and entirely misrepresented by the photos and the 51 reviews which all collectively gave it an 8+ which leads us to believe the reviews were either left circa 1998 or by family/friends or posted pre-Covid. We felt like we were in some run down hippy nature commune. The pool was encircled by a wire mesh fence too so dont let those ‘classy’ pool photos fool you for a minute. And maybe we missed this while assessing the proximity to downtown Lyon but the place was remotely located: in the woods at least a 20 min drive from the city so take that into consideration. So if youre looking for a rustic place in the woods away from civilization (albiet run by genuinely nice people), this might work for you.

Nice little hotel and staff were so very friendly and helpful. We enjoyed our stay but it is a lot further out of Lyon than we anticipated.
