Logis Hôtel Tante Yvonne & Son Restaurant Semi-Gastronomique - Lyon Nord

This hotel is a former coaching inn and presents good value for money, but basic accommodation. Judging by the wear in the stone steps leading up to the bedrooms it has been frequented by many generations of traveller over a long time. The accommodation is clean and reasonably comfortable. Our room was on the second floor, and there isn’t a lift so you have to be prepared to haul your suitcases up four flights of stairs. We had requested a twin room, and when we opened the door it wasn’t set up this way, so we had the decision - do we haul all our bags downstairs again or what - we decided that one of us should sit tight with the bags whilst the other chased down a twin room. As it happened the room next door had two beds in it, so the baggage hauling wasn’t needed. The room was clean but very dark, and a shutter from and adjacent window blew open in the breeze and obscured our one small window making darker still. The two beds turned out to be a double, with a single lying across the bottom of it at 90 degrees, but nestled under a 45 degree roof beam, which meant that if you sat up too quickly you banged your head. Those beams have been holding the roof for centuries so it’s more than likely your head will come off the worst in any unplanned collision. In our case this was a place to stay on a driving tour. For one night it provided a good night’s sleep, and the cars were parked in a secure courtyard off the street. It’s ancient role as a coaching is preserved as a good place to stop on the way to somewhere else. I’d certainly recommend it as a waypoint but not for a longer stay.

Je garde le bon souvenir d'une nuit passé à l’hôtel. Nous sommes arrivé tard, avec ma mère qui est âgée, Nous avions faim mais le restaurant était fermé. C'est Suzy qui nous a accueilli au tel d'abord, très chaleureusement, nous promettant qu'elle garderait le parking privé ouvert jusqu'à notre arrivée, elle nous a préparé un plateau de charcuterie, avec du melon et du fromage et des légumes, elle a trouvé un chambre au rdc pour ma mère et on a trouvé un havre de paix, avec un accueil chaleureux. C'était ce dont nous avions besoin.

Hôtel très arrangeant sur les horaires, un buffet pour le petit déjeuner très garnis et varié avec des produits maison. Coté restaurant très bonne carte un peu cher pour des budgets grand déplacement mais la qualité est au rendez-vous.
