The charm of the stay and location

Stayed in September 2024

Noisy at night. Lots of young people yelling well past 4a. Our room wasn’t air conditioned so we opened the windows and were attacked by mosquitos

Very lovely little spot. Breakfast was great. A little far from where we wanted to be but the funicular was great fun

Having to leave!

Mimi's excellent breakfast in the garden each morning. Her hospitality and kindness was wonderful.

Everything was great about the accommodation - I'd recommend it to others for short stays in Lyon.

My partner and I really enjoyed our stay. Mimi and Nicolas went above and beyond for us to make sure we were comfortable. The accommodation itself was very clean and in a great location - it was a 15 minute walk to the main restaurant and cafe streets in Lyon Vieux.

The room was large and well furnished, especially comfortable bed. Quick and easy access to Lyon centre by furnicular. Breakfast was particularly good…..excellent fruit, croissant scrambled eggs etc. unfortunately it rained so could not be in the garden, but the breakfast room was equally pleasant.

I wish there was a shower but not a big deal. I made use of the bath tub.

Amazing bed and breakfast! Delicious breakfast. Mimi was so kind and friendly. Great location close to the historic ruins. Highly recommend.

Friendly, accommodating hosts that made sure everything was fine.

We would have preferred a room without a spiral staircase, if we returned we would arrange another room.

The property is well located for seeing the city sights and also public transport. There is a convenient car park opposite which costs 35 euros per day. There is an excellent restaurant in the same road. Breakfast was very good. There is a bakers opposite the property where you can sit with a coffee if you arrive before the 5pm check in time. You can also get something there for the onward journey if you leave the property before breakfast is served.,

Ya gotta be ok with a hand held shower in the tub.😃

This is a wonderful place to stay! It will be our only place to stay in Lyon from now on! We came off a Viking River cruise and wanted a couple more days in Lyon—a great city to visit. Mimi and Nicolas are wonderful hosts—took care of all our needs and gave us great advice for visiting Lyon. The room was very cute and nicely organized. The grounds are beautiful—peonies and roses 🥀

The only little thing I would say as a negative was the bathroom was downstairs and it was a little hard going down the narrow spiral steps early in the morning.

It was an enjoyable stay in such a lovely location. The owners were extremely lovely and very accommodating. The breakfast each morning was sensational!

The only thing we didn't like is that we wished we had booked for longer to explore in Lyon more and to enjoy this fantastic property for longer.

Gorgeous accommodation in a beautiful facility with a perfect location for exploring Lyon. Mimi and Nicolas were exceptional hosts. Mimi answered the phone right away when we called as we were running late, was so patient with my halting French and was so warm and welcoming. Nicolas came out to greet us and drove with us to find the parking area as the road where the B&B was located was under construction and we never would have found it otherwise. Very unique room up stone staircases, featuring a spiral staircase to a private luxurious full bathroom on the lower level. Fantastic breakfast in a room with French doors out to the garden, delicious fresh coffee, breads, fruit salad, beautiful table linen and dishes. Mimi also helped us with suggestions for dinner at a great local bistro just steps away.

This warm and beautiful bed and breakfast is conveniently located uphill from the old city via the funicular. The rooms are lovely, the grounds are spectacular and the hosts are helpful. We loved our stay here.

The only minor issue for us as there isn’t a separate shower, only a bath with a hand held shower attachment, which makes it difficult to shower properly. But this wouldn’t stop us staying there again.

Really beautiful place to stay. Fantastic location, lovely hosts, great breakfast, quieter part of Lyon. All in all a wonderful stay

Nothing, we would recommend this property if you are staying in Lyon.

Our hosts Mimi and Nicholas made us feel comfortable and welcome. Waking up to Mimi’s breakfast to start the day was a treat! The property is a short downhill walk to Old Lyon and the fenicular brings you home. Restaurant options nearby. Quiet garden area to work from or relax in. Great value for money.

The stairs to the room were a bit tricky to negotiate, if you had a big suitcase. The shower over the bath took a bit of working out.

We were made so welcome. The room was really spacious. Fabulous coffee table books to browse through. Breakfast was a real treat and a great selection of homemade products. Mimi was a joy. She recommended places to visit, eat etc. It’s location is great if you want to explore the old part of Lyon.

We had to take a shower while sitting in the tub.

Everything was OK.

The property is in a brilliant location at the top of a hill which leads down to the old town. House and garden are full of character and beauty. mMimi and Nicholas are charming genuine hosts, who prepared a lively breakfast each morning. Lyon is a wonderful city, so our stay could not have been better.

Coffee machine leaked, toilet seat needs fixing, entrance and stairs up to the rooms could use some cleaning up.

Great hospitality. Mimi is a fantastic host. Located up the (steep) hill of St. Just - thankfully there is the cable car, otherwise it would be very, very hard to go back and forth to the tourist areas of the city. Coming down the stairs to the superb breakfast table she has prepared is a true delight. (And when we were there the weather was so-so, thus no breakfast in the garden ... when you can have breakfast in the garden, we assume it will be even better). The big suite is comfortable, the bed is good. Please be aware that there are many steps to reach your room ... and that the entrance and staircase doesn't look like the Ritz-Carlton ... but the friendly welcome, the attentive service make up for that. A few things need fixing (the coffee machine in our room leaked, the toilet seat was loose ...) - it really feels like staying at your favorite cousins' house. The warmth of the welcome makes you forget the few details that are not perfect. We used the garage (which is not close by, so do not forget anything in the car ...), but are not sure we would do so again (street parking is available, and free on Sundays and holidays).

To have a small fridge in the apartment would be nice
