Despite being the third largest city in France, Lyon is not often given the credit it deserves as both a historic treasure and a foodie's dream come true. Lyon can be found about 300 miles (ca.483 km) south of Paris at the point where the Rhone and Saone rivers meet. It was built on the silk industry so it carries with it a rich and ancient history. Home to one of the oldest Renaissance quarters in all of Europe, the wealthiest noblemen in the region set up homes there as far back as the 15th century.
Lyon was nicknamed the World Capital of Gastronomy in 1935 and the city lives up to its reputation to this day. It has the highest concentration of restaurants in France with 1500 eateries found in one small city. Be sure to visit Les Halles de Lyon to indulge in the local cuisine.
Lyon's architecture has retained its Renaissance history. Traboules are narrow passageways found in Vieux Lyon and La Croix-Rousse Saône. These tunnels run under residences and were once used for silk makers to have quick access to the river. The tables are still accessible and visitors can experience the history of Lyon by walking the same steps as the ancient residents of Lyon.
Lyon is a large city with many luxurious hotel accommodations available to suit anyone's preferences.
For visitors who want to be at the centre of attention, the Hotel Carlton Lyon is the place to be. The atmosphere surrounding the hotel is lively and the on-site spa allows relaxation.
The Sofitel Lyon Bellecour is a high-end hotel with an on-site Michelin-star restaurant and a lobby bar. There are 164 rooms on this property with modern decor.
Chateau De Bagnols is an actual chateau full of antique furniture and thick period drapery. The resort combines traditional furnishings with contemporary comforts.
Known as both the City of Love and the City of Lights, there is no doubt Paris makes an impression on everyone who visits and one visit is never enough. The Eiffel Tower, Louvre and Champs Elysees are all must-sees for first-time tourists. Guests with more time can take in the history of the Paris Catacombs or eat in the Montmartre neighbourhood. Despite the countless sites to take in, visitors who are only flying into Paris for the day should not be discouraged. A picnic on the lawn of the Eiffel Tower is just as magical as it sounds!
The French Capital provides some of the best luxury accommodations in the world. From 18th-century Parisian styles to contemporary design, the city has it all. Known for its stunning architecture and luxurious experiences, stay in one of these hotels to enjoy the best of Paris.
