Vacation within a vacation.
We were there just one night as an overnight trip from our stay in Paris. The hotel was close to a lot of restaurants and things to do. The staff was super friendly and the hotel had a lot of unique character. I would stay there again for sure.

At the quiet end of Vieux Lyon, first rate boulangerie just steps away, lots of eateries nearby, great urban location. Splurged on a ‘Suite Lumière” which was a great place to relax after busy days walking all over town.
