When we first came to Lyon, we stayed in the hotel Reine Astrid. In fact we had a mini-suite with bathroom, kitchen, living and bedroom. The view from the hotel was excellent. The only disadvantages were

The noise (street noise). As we were on the streetside (blvd. des Belges), we heared every street sound, from early in the morning untill deep into the night;

It's not really home;

The ventilation system. As some of you know, I (Alwin) am a little sensitive to hay-feaver. In the hotel, I was always sneezing like crazy. That never stopped. After we left the hotel and during work, I was OK. My suspicion is that the ventilated air was not filtered i.e. there was a lot of dust floating around.
