About
Located on the peninsula between the Rhône and the Saône rivers, Apart’hotel Presqu’île Lyon puts you at the centre of the vibrant city of silk. Lyon is almost 427 hectares of UNESCO World Heritage sites, including the Saint-Jean district with its gems of Renaissance architecture that bear witness to the city’s glorious past. Lyon is also the French capital of gastronomy, acknowledged worldwide as a “corking” place to eat, thanks to its traditional bouchon restaurants and many other eateries.
You will find a thousand and one reasons to succumb to Lyon’s charms. Partly pedestrianized, the 2nd district is teeming with restaurants – including the city’s famous bouchons – and all sorts of shops. Further north are the imposing Town Hall and the Croix-Rousse district. Europe’s largest pedestrian square, Place Bellecour, is under 5 minutes’ walk away. Simply cross a bridge and you are in the heart of Old Town with its little streets and passageways (known as traboules), Saint-Jean Cathedral and Fourvière basilica.
Wet your cultural appetite by viewing the collections of the Fine Arts Museum or those of the Fabric and Decorative Arts Museum. For your evening’s entertainment, you will be just a stone’s throw from the Guignol marionette theater and barely a quarter of an hour from the Opera House.
