Top Lyon Hotel Reviews

Fourvière Hôtel Lyon

Fourvière Hôtel Lyon

10/10 Excellent
"Beatiful hotel and grounds, spacious room, very comfortable bed. Has a heated outdoor pool which we took advantage of, although jacuzzi and sauna were closed for maintenance. Helpful staff. Hotel is located on the top of the hill and it is a good walk after French dinner :) but there is a funicular which makes it easy to get up if you don't feel like walking. Located right next to Roman ruins and beatiful basilica but walking downhill will bring you to the heart of the old town. We enjoyed our stay."
