CITADINES PRESQU'ILE LYON, Lyon

Vieux Lyon is a 6-minute walk away, giving immediate access to historic sites, restaurants, and the riverbanks. Lyon-Perrache Train Station is a 13-minute drive or 20-minute metro ride, and Lyon-Saint Exupéry Airport is about 30 minutes by taxi (or longer by public transport). The immediate neighbourhood is packed with restaurants, cafés, and shops along Rue Mercière and surrounding streets. The hotel is in a pedestrian-friendly area, making it easy to explore on foot. For those arriving by car, rue de Brest can be used for dropping off luggage; parking is then a short walk away.

All units feature a kitchenette equipped with a microwave, fridge, dishwasher, stovetop, toaster, kettle, and ironing facilities. Bed linen and towels are provided. Some apartments offer a separate living area with a sofa bed and dining table. Bathrooms are private and come with a bath or shower, hairdryer, and free toiletries. Deluxe studios and apartments include a Nespresso coffee machine. Standard rooms have views onto a quiet courtyard or a busy street; rooms facing the street may have some noise, but double-glazed windows significantly reduce sound. Standard rooms have fans, which can be helpful but are not as effective as air conditioning. Some bathrooms have been noted as dated, and a few units may show wear and tear. Soundproofing between rooms is good, but noise from above (such as moving furniture) can sometimes be heard.

Breakfast is served as a continental buffet in the lobby area, which shares the same reception space, giving a practical rather than intimate atmosphere. The breakfast includes breads, pastries, cold cuts, cheese, yoghurts, cereals, hot drinks, and juice. The same lobby coffee machine is free to use at any time, even for those not purchasing breakfast. For lunch and dinner, the surrounding pedestrian streets (especially Rue Mercière) offer dozens of restaurants and cafés within a one-minute walk, serving French bistro fare, Italian, bagels, and more. A vending machine for drinks and snacks is also available on site. Guests wanting a heartier or sit-down meal will find ample options just outside the hotel.

The 24-hour front desk can assist with check-in/out, taxi bookings, and local advice. Free Wi-Fi is available in all areas. Luggage storage is free for all guests, both before check-in and after check-out, making it easy to explore the city without bags. The launderette uses the WeWash app; washing costs €5 and drying €4. Cots are available for children up to 2 years old (book an apartment to accommodate a family with two adults and a child). Pets are allowed at €8 per night per pet. The property has a lift, key-card access, CCTV, and safety deposit boxes. No on-site parking, airport shuttle, spa, or swimming pool.
