Lyon hotels & apartments, all accommodations in Lyon

Lyon has everything your comfort- and pleasure-desired heart wants. It's gastronomic capital after all! And yes, lots of eateries to indulge your appetite and curiosity as well.

But let's leave this stomach-themed point and move toward something more cultural and educational. Vieux Lyon and Croix Rousse are UNESCO World Heritage Sites with a maze of narrow, cobbled streets packed with bistros and boutiques.

Not to miss is a 16th-century Gothic cathedral and an astrological clock. Also take a funicular railway to the astonishing landmark Basillique Notre-Dame de Fouvière, topped by twin towels. There you can also walk along a Gallo-Roman archaeological park where one can view the remains of the antique theatre and the Odeon and a Museum of Gallo-Roman Civilization, which features a panorama of life in Lyons in the Roman era.

Lyon is a shopping "highway" - don't overspeed or you can end up with some nickels in your pocket. Such streets as Emile Zola, rue du Président Edouard Herriot and a place near the Théâtre des Célestins are especially dangerous for those who can't control their shopping appetite.
