Nestled just a stone’s throw from the scenic riverbanks and only a few minutes’ walk from the resplendent and aptly named Place Bellecour, this unrivalled location allows you to become fully immersed in the magical ambience of Lyon’s vieux ville. A UNESCO World Heritage district for good reason, everywhere you turn you’ll discover more of the city’s most impressive eateries, museums and architecture - all easily reachable on foot and knowing that your comfortable city abode is never far away for moments of restful quiet.
The hotel itself resides within a 19th Century building that sits on a charming, traditional square complete with a striking stone fountain at its centre. The perfect vista to feast your eyes upon each morning as you begin a day’s exploring. Inside, this historical charm has been expertly blended with all the modern comforts required for a stay that ticks all the right boxes. Each room has been decorated in warm yet neutral tones that draw to mind the golden hues of the surrounding stone buildings while a few choice feature furnishings and mesmerising trompe l’oeil artworks lend a contemporary edge. Floor-to-ceiling windows open out onto pretty juliette balconies and allow light to stream into the space, while elegant sweeping curtains will cocoon your evenings for total privacy and relaxation.
With this unbeatable combination of style, comfort and location, the Mercure Lyon Centre Beaux Arts Hotel **** is the ideal base from which to discover or rediscover your love for this impressive, bountiful city.
