We had originally booked another 5-star hotel in Lyon, but were highly disappointed and decided to leave the same day that we arrived due to noise problems. Although we called Villa Florentine at 11pm to confirm a room and then arrived at midnight, the team were exceptionally welcoming and accommodated our situation with the perfect combination of kindness and professionalism. The experience at the hotel for the next two days was perfect, with not a single criticism or shortcoming. The facilities are all very elegant and the breakfast room in particular is stunning. The room was generously-sized, with a nice terrace. The fitness room is small, with a few cardio machines and light hand-weights, but this was not a problem, as walking up and down to and from the city provides plenty of exercise! The staff were wonderful, with useful insights into the city, and very helpful with practicalities such as luggage and the car. The only reason we did not extend our stay was because they were fully booked, but we hope to return again soon.

This was a fantastic hotel and a truly memorable stay. The building itself is beautiful — an old chapel tastefully converted into an elegant hotel, while still keeping so much of its traditional charm and character. It felt stylish, unique, and full of history. Our room was absolutely perfect, with an incredible view over Lyon — genuinely one of the best hotel views we have ever had. A special mention must go to the porter, who was warm, polite, attentive, and incredibly helpful throughout our stay. He is a credit to the hotel and really helped make our visit even more special thank you David 🙏 We would highly recommend Villa Florentine.

We love La Villa Florentine, but some of the changes they have made in the remodel have not been for the better. Our room had little light-we could only read in bed, and there was but one chair and a very large desk that took up too much space. We have stayed in the same room before and it was much better before the changes. The staff is wonderful, as always and we will stay there again. But i hope they resolve some of the issues I mentioned before then.
