We had an amazing time staying at Emma’s place. Emma was a perfect host with great recommendations. The location is ideal and so was the view. The apartment was also quite spacious and everything you need. If you don’t mind a few stairs, then we would highly recommend Emma’s place.

Charming and cozy!

Loved this cute little apartment in Vieux Lyon. It was close to the metro stop and everything we wanted to visit while there. Emma was friendly and easy to communicate with. The stairs are serious business, so if you have lots of luggage, opt for approaching the apartment from the high street (Emma will explain how when you book).

Quite an experience living in a “traboule”. Lots of steps to work off the wonderful food, and situated in the heart of the old city. Highly recommended.

Our family of 3 loved very much enjoyed our stay in Emma's apartment. The location was fantastic for exploring the city, and we enjoyed the views from the dining table. The pull out sofa bed was perfect for our child. Emma was very responsive when we asked her questions, but otherwise she left us alone. Would recommend this apartment for anyone wanting a feel of the old city!

Old Lyon Apartment

This property was located in a great neighborhood, close to everything and yet away from the crowds. Emmanuelle was a charming and very accommodating hostess. The only concern would be if one couldn’t do stairs easily. There are 6 flights of steep, circular stairs to get up to the apartment.

A great little flat in Vieux Lyon

We really enjoyed our stay in this little apartment in historic Vieux Lyon. The flat was calm and peaceful with a beautiful view over the city and to the mountains beyond. The bed was comfortable, the shower was great, and the kitchen had everything we needed. The climb up the 7 flights of stone steps through the traboule added to the charm of the place. We would definitely stay here again.

Heart of Vieux Lyon- Fabulous location

Heart of Vieux Lyon- Fabulous location

The location is ideal; close to Metro stop, and within a few steps of great restaurants with authentic French cuisine. Looks of shopping options close by, short walk to major museums and silk companies. There are many stairs, but good exercise, and as the apt is in the middle of a hillside it was cool despite 100 deg temperatures outside. Great hostess, and friends who helped us get luggage up and down stairs and provided transportation to airport for a fee. We would stay there again.

Très bien mais pas un 5 étoiles

Très bien mais pas un 5 étoiles

Très bien situé dans la partie la plus intéressante de Lyon, le métro tout près. Il faut noter par contre les 115 marches à monter, donc on évite les aller-retours à l'apartement. Un peu chaud la première nuit et avec les fenêtres ouvertes quelques petits moustiques en ont profité ;-)

Slice of life in Vieux Lyon!

Slice of life in Vieux Lyon!

Emmanelle's flat is very quiet - it opens onto a courtyard with a view of rooftops and the cathedral - you'll hear birdsong in the morning and church bells in the evening. It's a super location - walk up the famous "montées" - stairways to the Basilica on the hill, the Roman Ruins, the pretty, serene park built into the side of the hill ... all lovely, with the added benefit (requirement, really) of working off the rich but amazing food in Lyon. The flat is stocked with all the basics, plus guidebooks and suggestions by Emmanuelle of her favourite non-touristy bakeries and restaurants. The heat and hot water are excellent. Emmanuelle is a great host - not obtrusive, but full of ideas, help, and information should you need it (or even if you look like you need it but are too shy to ask!) We also walked to the central part of Lyon and over to the other side of the river easily. A great stay!

A beautiful perch atop a beautiful city

A beautiful perch atop a beautiful city

This charming apartment has a rustic, loft-like feel and a ton of space to unwind after a full day of dining and sight-seeing. Yes - it truly is 6 flights of stairs, but with Lyon's rich food, that's a good thing! It's only steps to the metro and the funicular railways that go to the Roman Amphitheater and the wonderful Basilica. There are restaurants galore nearby specializing in traditional Lyonnaise fare, but also tapas, Asian and lovely bakeries as well. The shower was nice and big, and the views from the bedroom and living room/kitchen were great. There isn't a full grocery on the Vieux Lyon side of the Soane river, so keep that in mind if you can stock up on a few staples that the little Casino convenience store a few blocks away might not have. Being so close to the metro made accessing the train station a snap for the TGV from Paris, a day trip to Annecy and catching a bus to Bordeaux. I highly recommend the property, the neighborhood and our wonderful hostess Emmanuelle - Merci beaucoup!

Very comfortable apartment in the vieux Lyon area

Very comfortable apartment in the vieux Lyon area

We had a wonderful stay in this apartment. It’s location above the old town was a great base to explore from. Cafes and restaurants close by and easy walk across to morning market on the other side of the River Soane. Metro station very close by and also good access for Velos bike hire station. Anyone with any mobility issues or who doesn’t like stairs needs to be aware there are approximately 115 steps to wind your way up from Monte du Courguillon up to the apartment and approximately 40 steps down if you access the apartment from Monte du Chenin neuf. Worth it though as stunning view and a very comfortable apartment. Very hospitable owner.

Cosy tranquility in the heart of Vieux Lyon

The apartment was comfortable and warm, excellently placed for the Metro, local shops and for exploring the Old Town and beyond. Yes, there are a lot of stairs to climb but it is in a fascinating building full of character.It is well equipped with everything one needs for simple cooking. Our host was extremely helpful with local information and was kind enough to book us into a superb restaurant for a Christmas meal. The Roman sites and superb Gallo Roman Museum on the Fouviere Hill are easily reached from the funiculaire which runs from the Metro station..

Sunny, airy apartment

Sunny, airy apartment

It was a great experience. The apartment was functional and comfortable and, best of all, had wonderful light and a dramatic view over Vieux Lyon. I cooked several meals in and the kitchen, while spare, was perfectly adequate. Given that the apartment is located in the heart of the Old Town, it was amazingly quiet. The host, Emmanuel, was pleasant and helpful.

My husband, my 2 year old daughter and myself stayed here during our trip to Lyon. The apartment was charming and clean. Emma was a wonderful and kind host with lots of suggestions for us on what to do and where to go. She even met is at the metro to make sure that we found the apartment ok. The apartment was only a one minute walk from the metro station. There are very many stairs to get up to the apartment but they are worth it for the view. Emma even helped us with our luggage! She also left us some delicious bread and jam, and coffee for our breakfast. We had such a lovely stay and hope to stay here and see Emma again sometime.

Our family of 2 adults and 2 kids stayed at this charming and well kept apartment this past summer. The place has all the necessary amenities for a family of four, was very clean and convenient for cooking. It's location in a traditional "traboule" provides for a very authentic experience. Views of the city are priceless and we even had an unforgettable breakfast in the common court of the building. Owner Emma is very attentive and helpful, cero hassles. We will definitely consider this apartment in the future, as we loved Lyon!

Aufregende Wohnung am Steilhang

Aufregende Wohnung am Steilhang

Die Wohnung liegt in einem Komplex von Gebäuden an einem steilen Hang in der Altstadt von Lyon (Vieux Lyon), also der perfekte Ausgangspunkt, um die Stadt zu Fuß zu erkunden (wovon auch unser Hund profitierte) . Von oben her ist die Wohnung über circa 70 Stufen erreichbar, nach unten hin sind es 115 Stufen, man muss also wirklich gut zu Fuß sein. Das Apartment selber ist zweckmäßig ausgestattet mit fast allem was man braucht, könnt ihr noch ergänzt werden durch Weingläser und zwei Handtücher mehr. Die Wohnungsinhaberin Emma war immer erreichbar und sehr hilfsbereit und hat uns viele praktische Tipps gegeben, auch hat sie uns großzügige Konditionen für einen späten Check out geboten. Außerdem bot sie uns für 13 € pro Tag einen Tiefgaragenplatz für unser Auto in der Nähe an. Insgesamt würde ich die Wohnung weiter empfehlen, aber wie schon gesagt, nur für sportliche Leute.
