Hôtel Beausoleil

Lyon & the Rhône Valley


A breath of fresh air, this friendly two-star venture in a stately villa dating from 1905 is hard to resist. It features 16 individually decorated rooms that have been spruced up and modernised. There's a small garden area that's great for lounging after a long day's driving. It's a two-minute stroll from the historic centre.
