Top hotels in Gerland
The Ruck Hotel
The rooms were ok pretty clean but for being so new already had grout missing in the tile. If you are staying for a rugby match 10/10 on location. If there for the city and you do not have a car it is not an ideal location. Luckily we had a rental car so it was perfect for us.

Novotel Lyon Gerland Musée des Confluences
This hotel is close to the tram stop which was very convenient. The hotel looks newer and that is reflected in the rooms. The room was large for three people. Everything looked clean. Breakfast was extensive! There was coconut yogurt and almond milk for those that don't eat dairy.

Q7 Lodge Lyon 7
Breakfast was good value, but nothing special. There were a few small problems: a very squeaky bathroom door, broken shower bracket, so no hands free showering, and the sitting area tv was broken. Otherwise a good experience and nice hotel. A little far from all theaction, but the transit system ...
