Live your dreams in this bright modern apartment in Lyon’s calm and characterful 7th arrondissement. In a quieter neighbourhood but a short hop on the metro from the centre of the city, this apartment is a sleek base to explore France's capital of gastronomy. Inside, there's a double-height, light-filled contemporary living room that features rich textiles, bold artworks and eclectic objects. Pad out onto the terrace to soak up the early morning sun with a fresh coffee and flaky croissant before stepping out to explore the Roman Amphithéâtre des Trois Gaules and medieval architecture in Old Lyon. If you aren’t out sampling the city’s delicacies, you’ll find a sleek and dynamic kitchen to rustle up a cheese board – make sure to taste the local offerings. Fall blissfully asleep in the stylish bedrooms and wake up raring to go – the delightful renaissance passageways of the Traboules and the Fourvière Basilica are just outside your window.

Home truths
While there's a lift in the building to reach this apartment, the home is spread over two floors and only has stairs – it may not be suitable for those with reduced mobility
The second bedroom has glass-framed windows on the mezzanine level – light sleepers may wish to bring an eye mask

Though there isn't a dedicated desk here, the dining table doubles up as a laptop-friendly workspace
To start your stay off on the right foot, your host provides a small supply of coffee pods, herbal tea and tea bags
You won't need a car in Lyon – instead of driving, explore the city on foot

About Lyon
