Anatoliy Couples - 11/03/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

Anatoliy K. room 726 7.03 Ordered 2 Bouquets of white roses in the flower shop on the ground floor, to be delivered on 8.03 in the morning. Asked to deliver them at 9.00 when the shop will open to 605 and 726. Asked 3 times, that it is important to deliver it by 9, because at 10 we leave the hotel. Payed in advance. Call two times to the reception in the morning to remind. 9.35 came down asked the shop where are the flowers. They told me it is on the reception since 9.00. Asked the concierge where are the flowers, he found it on the reception (nobody even say "Sorry). I asked to deliver 1 bouquet to 726, 1 to 605, and deliver the 605's one immediately, before my friends leave the room. That was never done. We the hotel without flowers. When we came back in the evening we found BOTH bouquets in 726... Our friends from 605 had the same problem, but it is up to them inform You or not. Room, room service and restaurant/bar was ok, but service ruined all the impressions of the vacation.

Dear Anatoliy K., Thank you for taking the time to tell us about your experience at the Sofitel Lyon Bellecour. We are very sorry for this misunderstanding during your stay. This does not reflect our usual quality of service and we understand your disappointment. Please accept our sincerest apologies.

Liza Couples - 24/02/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

Old building with dated and aged decor. Very disappointed with the standard, given the 5 star rating. The one redeeming feature was the comfortable king size bed. We returned to our room at 3pm on day 2 to find our room still un-made.

Robert Families - 17/02/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

Visited Lyon to see a family member. The location was ideal since they were across the Rhone river. The hotel was also a nice walk to metro BelleCour and also Old Lyon. We often met with the family at the hotel to enjoy tea/coffee and a snack at the entrance bar, we did this almost every day and the staff was always charming and very helpful , in our mind the best staff at the hotel . We also ate a great meal with superb service Les Trois Domes .

enjoyed it

I organised a meeting with my company during 3 days with 80 people. I must say that the service around the conference and Frederique (event manager) took very good care of us. I got a lot of negative feedback about the rooms that were not renovated and look like decades ago. Please consider when booking where you will stay.
