Fourviere Hotel – A Favorite for Families in Lyon
About the Hotel
Historic Rooms with Character
Fourvière Hotel has 74 rooms, each featuring a black-and-white photo of a historical figure on the door, with a framed description inside. Rooms include HD TVs with French and international channels, minibars, and soundproofing. Some offer views of Lyon, the garden, or the pool. The suites add a sofa and private bathrooms with free toiletries.
Local and Bistronomic Dining
Le Bouchon serves traditional Lyonnais pork-and-offal dishes, typically for groups. Les Téléphones, led by chef Damien Montereau, offers seasonal bistronomic cuisine. Breakfast includes eggs, bacon, ham, cheese, and French pastries. The bar, Les Collections, serves coffee and cocktails in the courtyard under Pablo Reinoso's sculpture.
Spa and Outdoor Pool
The hotel has a small spa with a whirlpool, steam bath, ice fountain, and themed showers. Outside, guests can use the heated lap pool, boules court, and tree-shaded park with benches. Meeting spaces include five rooms and the Kfe lounge with work-friendly seating.
Hilltop Views and Landmarks
Fourvière Hotel sits on Fourvière Hill in a 19th-century convent designed by Pierre-Marie Bossan, architect of the nearby basilica. It's 600 meters from the Basilica of Notre-Dame de Fourvière and 0.5 km from the Gallo-Roman Museum. Public transport links include Part-Dieu and Perrache train stations.
Convent-Turned-Hotel Features
The lobby occupies the former chapel, with muraled ceilings, mosaic floors, and an altar. Guests walk through the Galerie des Mères lyonnaises to reach Le Bouchon. Amenities include free Wi-Fi, concierge services, and a glass-walled 'traboule' passageway leading to Les Collections bar.
