The hotel is conveniently located just 15min on foot from Place Bellecour, so it stays in a place with easy access to all major attractions. The bed is comfortable, the WiFi works well, the shower is good, the cleanliness is spotless and the staff is nice and friendly. Even if my room faced the street, the room wasn't noisy.
I liked everything really, the only thing I could mention is that the room is small, but this is nothing different from the majority of standard classes hotels around France, so it is what it is and it didn't bother me. Due to the room size, there is no space to a wardrobe, so you need to keep your clothes in your suitcase or use the few hangers that are available in the room.

The Hotel is in a great location. Several walkable plazas are nearby. The tram and train station is very accessible. The staff is very nice and helpful.
The tub was a bit awkward. It would be nice to have complimentary coffee in the morning.
And an in room small fridge would be a nice addition to the rooms.

For a special birthday stay in Lyon I had chosen the Simplon because of its good location to explore all of Lyon, its traditional appeal and its parking. The room was a good size and the bathroom was clean. The staff were all pleasant.
We had two windows both fitted with one curtain each that did not fit across the window, they neither gave total privacy from the occupants across the street nor cut out the light from the street lights outside. (Apparently, all the bedrooms only have one drop of curtain for each window.) There are blinds, but these are old outside ones, which during our second night swung in the wind causing noise all night and broken sleep. We asked for assistance from the hotel to open the blinds, but apparently, there was no one to assist as the blinds are broken.
The bed, whilst clean, was obviously old, and squeaked at the slightest movement and had a huge dip in the middle.
We were given a free breakfast on our last morning as compensation, but I wished I had not fallen for the "traditional" feel of the photos and chosen another hotel.
The carpet to the first floor is threadbare.
