Dreadful place, do not waste your money
This place is not as advertised. No air conditioning or fans in 40c heat, filth covered mattresses and walls. Gardens overgrown and pathways a huge health and safety issue with holes and trip hazards everywhere, dark walk ways with no lights as staff can’t be bothered to replace them. The staff sit outside drinking whilst this place has fallen in to significant dis-repair. We actually contemplated sleeping in our car as it would have been more comfortable. This place is a hell hole and needs to knocked down. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY!

Good for one night stay. Upstairs more modern then down stairs. Down stairs looked tired. Limited restaurants to eat though there were snack shacks dotted about. Would be nice to have a few restaurants and bars that were open past 7pm. It was very hot during our stay but no air con. Had to have windows open but became noisy until 11pm. Kettle was old and the element was peeling. Not cork screw or bottle opener for any alcohol refreshments.

Highly recommend avoiding
This was one of the worst stays I’ve ever experienced. The hotel is incredibly dated and unkept - to the extent that it feels unsafe. The pathway is overgrown and uneven. The cot provided was not clean, had an huge rip in the side and did not have a mattress.
Faded door and overgrown doorway

We enjoyed our stay there, it was clean and very big apartment. The only issue we had it was the heat, there is no air conditioning or fan there , although it was 36 degrees that day. The second issue was the swimming pool, the kids went at its opening time 9am to enjoy it before we start our day, but it was filthy.

On arrival, the property was rather littered with over flowing, smelly bins in the car park. The checking in process was smooth but the amount I was charged was more than the amount quoted me by Expedia. The 2 bedroom apartment was very clean but a little dated. Very spacious accommodation with a just about adequate kitchen. Lounge furniture is mismatched and did not provide adequate, comfortable seating for all four of us at any one time. Swimming pool and surroundings were very clean and relatively quiet. The staff at reception were helpful but it took 3 days for the lounge blind to be fixed which made the room hot as it was stuck in the open position. The area is very quiet even with the back doors open. An ideal place which was under 30 minutes Away by car from the centre of Lyon, and the amphitheatre. There is a small supermarket which is a slow 15 minute walk from the property.

Needs modernising.
We had to change rooms due to ant infestation, we weren’t sure if they would sort out the infestation or just let the next ariivals just use the room until they complained. The whole place could do with a deep clean and some modernisation.

Garden & City Hotel Review
A good price - not many places to eat locally. Just the use of a small shop where we could bring food back to the apartment. Breakfast was rushed as they people were ready to eat at 8am but no food was laid out. However, the young French girl was VERY nice on the reception desk and did her best to sort things out. The apartment wasn't perfect in terms of cleanliness but the beds were clean at least. For the money, it was fine.

Beautiful Garden Setting
Grounds around the buildings are well kept and have a very nice garden feel. Rooms and beddings were generally clean but the carpets were stained. Some lights did not work. Service was great with our late arrival and later with helping us when we had cel phone problems. Hotel is located in quick driving distance to the Roman amphitheater and the Basilique Notre-Dame de Fourvière. Free available parking is a big plus. I would recommend this hotel for budget minded travelers.

Beautiful hotel with charm. Helpful staff.
It's a beautiful hotel with a garden atmosphere. The room was comfortable and had air conditioning, which as good because it gets warm and humid in that area. The nice woman running the front desk gave us information on how to get to Venice and was able to sell us bus tickets. The bus to Venice is just a short walk away. I would recommend this hotel to my friends and family

Not sure how this property got such high ratings
The units are EXTREMELY spartan and basic. There are no comforts/niceties such as pictures (ok, there were two very small pictures in a 2 level, 2 bedroom unit with huge walls), rugs, bath mats, alarm clocks, decent lamps (lighting was terrible), sufficient mirrors, etc... The bathrooms had exposed plumbing pipes, and the plastic shower curtain was disgustingly dirty as it was literally caked with soap scum from previous visitors. The walls, along with pretty much everything else, needed a deep cleaning. The hard, extremely uncomfortable sofa bed sleeper in the living room had pillows, but they were the actual sofa pillows with a pillowcase thrown over them instead of regular sleeping pillows. Part of the reason I chose this hotel is because they advertised a pool for my kids. However, the pool was covered up and not useable. Also, the dish detergent was provided but the bottle was half used as were the rolls of toilet tissue, and the sponge provided to wash dishes wasn't new (yuck!) While I certainly didn't expect the Trump Plaza for such a low rate, I at least expected that the room would remotely resemble the lovely pictures on the website. Be prepared - the rooms you see on the website are MUCH MUCH nicer than what you will receive. However, the front desk staff was wonderful! They were really nice and helpful, and most spoke pretty good English.
