Phenix, Lyon
Likes: friendly staff, quaint of the place, lovely building, great location, lovely breakfast. Dislikes: everything could do with a revamp / lick of paint, but it is only 3 star, so you can't expect the world. Also, I disliked being able to smell my neighbours smoking, but i think that's a problem to be faced in 90% of French hotels!!
It's a sweet little hotel right in the old town - perfect location and really near lots of clubs, restaurants and bars - yet it wasn't noisey at all. Also, it was a bagain - we booked through an internet site adn it was just over �60 per room (2 adults) per night, and we got a mini suite - bedroom upstairs, huge bed, while the bathroom and seating areas are downstairs.
