Summary: We show finite-size bounds on the deviation of the optimal type II error from its asymptotic value in the quantum hypothesis testing problem of Stein’s lemma with composite null-hypothesis. The proof is based on some simple properties of a new notion of quantum Rényi divergence, recently introduced in [M. Müller-Lennert et al., J. Math. Phys. 54, No. 12, 122203, 20 p. (2013; Zbl 1290.81016)] and [M. M. Wilde, A. Winter and D.
