Situated near Place Bellevour in Lyon. Hotel situated on First floor and above. We had a a baroque decorated room. Lot of space and great bathroom. The decoration in this hotel is amazing. From the old pictures of Lyon to the deco in the breakfast room. So nice. Good breakfast home made food. Its missing fresh fruit on the breakfast. Staff are very friendly and helpful. We stayed 1 night but will stay again for sure.

If you are visiting Lyon, we would thoroughly recommend this super hotel. Everywhere is so different from the usual 'hotel are us' type of hotels you find worldwide. Staff were excellent and very helpful. Location is very central immediately beside Bellecour Square, so good access to the parts of the city you may wish to explore. Only downsides I can think of is that there is no elevator that reaches the ground floor. Access is by a remotely operated locked door but you have to climb one flight of stairs, with any luggage you may have, before reaching reception on the 1st floor. From there, you do have an elevator to take you to most of the rooms. Breakfast was a delight - food was excellent and the breakfast room is just lovely. Once again, would recommend and will return on any future visit to Lyon.

No ac so had to keep windows open but it is a very busy noisy street so difficult to sleep easily if room is on the Main Street. Perhaps a fan ? We loved the Time Machine quality of the room which was unique and fun and yet still fully comfortable and clean. We were a bit skeptical given the nature of the Entrance -but it is lovely once you enter and understand the unesco heritage.

I absolutely loved Hotel Bayard. It is a very unique and charming boutique hotel with exquisite, old world style. I had a private bathroom (including the toilet). The entry to get to the reception area is unique and charming, as well. But, you must walk up a full flight of stairs with your bags to get to the registration/reception area. The windows open to let fresh air in. The air conditioning was not as strong as I would prefer, but that seems common in France. I had a great experience at Hotel Bayard.

Hotel Bayard Bellecour is full of character and spotlessly clean. The quietly efficient staff were welcoming and friendly. The buffet breakfast was delicious, plentiful and served in a beautiful room. The hotel is perfectly situated (very central so most sights are walkable) with a metro station very close. If you like shiny-floored, soulless, corporate hotels - don't stay here. If you want to stay somewhere a bit different and full of quiet charm, I recommend this beautiful hotel!

The Hotel Bayard Bellecour is a lovely, well appointed hotel that is so convenient to everything you want to see in Lyon. The front desk clerk was so charming, pleasant and helpful. The room was elegant however a bit dark. It transports you to an earlier, more elegant time. There is a rotary dial that still works, crystal glasses and small touches. The breakfast was pricey but lovely. Lots of different cakes, breads and selection of yogurts, fruit, cheese and sliced meats.
