Delightful apartment, very close to bus and metro
We had a lovely stay, so comfy, quiet and peaceful yet close to shops, the Metro (Saint Just Funicular) and a bus stop into central Lyon right outside the door. The apartment is delightful! Phillipe was very kind and helpful. Thank you!

Wonderful stay in Lyon
We had a wonderful stay in Lyon. Philippe was an excellent host with good English so we could communicate well with him. The unit is totally separate from his house, so we had complete privacy. The bedroom is on the upper level, so you need to be mobile enough to go up and down to use the bathroom on the main level. The location is convenient to use the public transportation. It is a short walk to the Roman Theatre ruins and to the Eglise Saint-Irenee. Philippe has a garden that we enjoyed. We highly this property and when we visit Lyon again, we would stay here.

Beautiful Town House with Relaxing Garden Patio
Beautiful town house. Lovely relaxing outdoor sitting area in the garden with table and chairs. Well equipped kitchen. Good location - 10 min walk to the basilica and 3 min walk to the funicular that takes you to Vieux Lyon. Philippe is a wonderful host. He gave us lots of tips and advice. He provided a hand drawn map and a big bowl of fresh fruit.

A hidden gem in Fourviere
It was such a a surprise to find our backyard was a large garden! Philippe was an exceptional host! His hand drawn map of the local streets was much more useful than Google maps! Downstairs you find the bathroom+ separate toilet and a spacious kitchen equiped with everything a homecook needs. Upstairs are the rooms with garden views. A spacious living area and large master bedroom. Room to do yoga! Tastefully renovated, reflecting the owners style. A beautiful vase belonging to his grandmother was just another delight to discover. There are no laundry facilities. But nothing to worry about with a Laundromat just across the street. A quick walk to the funicular and connections to the very efficient metro & tram system make it very easy for traveller's without a car! We highly recommend the Lyon city card that includes public transport. Philippe's English is great which was very helpful as we are non french speaking Australians! The location and a fabulous host make this a "must book" for Lyon!

A wonderful home in a wonderful city
The location of the house is amazing. We stayed 7 days and went to Bellecour (main square) TCL bus operator (bus stop outside) where we purchased a 7 day pass for 22 euros giving access to ALL transport. Funicular is 2 minutes walk away, buses outside door. The system is ultra simple and the location meant we were able to explore the WHOLE city fast, efficiently and at a minimal cost. One of the best bakeries I know in France is a few steps away (grains de sucre) and there are a few local shops around it too. As we ate out mostly, it wasn't difficult for us to buy a few basics. The house is lovely, decorated with taste and very light. Be aware loo and bathroom are downstairs so not a house for limited mobility but then neither is Lyon which can be up and down often and is HUGE. Philippe, our host, is a perfect host and gentleman. The house has plenty of bin bags, loo rolls, detergent, cooking oils, vinegars etc which, again, is great. We called on Philippe a couple of times and he gave us immediate assistance. We would recommend this home 100 %. Fabuleux... MERCI PHILIPPE.

Juste formidable...
Un appartement très bien situé, très propre et super bien équipé, meublé avec goût, ce qui ne gâche rien, dans un quartier calme de Lyon et très bien achalandé. Un emplacement de parking est dédié à l'appartement, ce qui est vraiment appréciable. Un petit jardin clôturé, ce qui permet une vie à l'extérieur, d'autant que nous sommes venus avec notre chien, un Berger Allemand de 8 mois. Un hôte (Philippe) juste adorable, très à l'écoute et complètement disponible. Un séjour qui s'est parfaitement déroulé et que nous recommandons sans la moindre hésitation à toute personne qui rechercherait une location dans le secteur. Régine et Christian

We cannot fault the stay in anyway. Philippe was the perfect host. We stayed for 2 weeks, the house is clean ,comfortable and very quiet, the courtyard is perfect for sitting out in. Philippe lives nearby and is always on hand to help and offer any advice, check in and in fact the whole stay was so trouble free.The location is perfect, the funicular is about 500 yards away which leads directly to all metro/tram/bus lines. Lyon is a very beautiful city, the food is as nice as you would hope, the locals are very friendly. We are sad to leave. Thank you Philippe :)

Philippe was a great host, friendly, and always responsive. The apartment has everything you need for a short or longer stay, and having an outdoor garden area is a bonus. The location is great - a short walk to the Fenicular which gets you to the old town in 2 minutes which is lovely, lots of cafes and restaurants, while a further 5 minute walk across the bridge gets you in to Lyon proper which is lovely city. There’s a supermarket, butcher and boloungerie in easy walking distance. It’s a great place to stay.

Comfortable and convenient
We enjoyed our stay in Philipe's home which was charmed and modern, with everything you need to cook if you like or just have a restful moment with a cup of coffee from the Nespresso machine provided. His place overlooks his beautiful garden on one side and the street on the other; both were quiet during our stay. We were in the midst of a heat wave so it was very hot in the evenings. If you plan to stay when it's very hot, I recommend wearing light pajamas and possibly having a water spray bottle to help you cool off while the fan blows. The location of the home was about two blocks to the funicular, and the public transit system in Lyon is very easy to navigate. We were able to go everywhere we wanted conveniently with a 48 hour metro pass. If you are not very mobile, I highly recommend the funicular, as the walk up and down to Vieux Lyon is one very very long cobblestoned street. Thank you for your warm hospitality Philipe!

Great host, great location.
We had a wonderful stay at Philippe's rental. The apartment is well appointed and there is a private outdoor sitting area. It is situated in a mostly residential area with good restaurants close by. The funicular is a 5 minute walk away and will take you to Old Lyon in 10 minutes. Philippe is wonderful and is always there for you. We would highly recommend this rental.

We loved staying here. It's very easy to access Lyon using the funicular. Super easy. Philippe's place has a courtyard and a comfortable little house. It was so comfortable to come back there at the end of the day. We would stay here again in a heartbeat!!! C'est un endroit merveilleux où séjourner. Philippe est un hôte parfait. Très facile d'accès à tout Lyon. Vous êtes juste en haut de la colline du vieux Lyon et pouvez utiliser le funiculaire pour y accéder en quelques minutes.

A lovely oasis
The house itself is very thoughtfully set out, with a good selection of kitchen tools (good knives!) and a comfortable bed and couch. The neighborhood is charming, with several nice restaurants very nearby, and a few places to get supplies for cooking at home. Fourviere Basilica and the ruins of Lugdunum are approx 10 mins walk away, the funicular into Vieux Lyon is 3 minutes away, and all in all, this is a perfectly situated spot. The garden and its denizens are lovely. Philipe is a thoughtful, pleasant host, who checked in on us when our paths crossed and gave us some very welcome suggestions. I would wholeheartedly recommend this house to friends and family, and would cheerfully come back.

A calm oasis in an amazing location
We loved our stay at this house on top of the hill in Fourviere. The location is brilliant - the funicular that takes you down to Vieux Lyon and Metro connections to the rest of Lyon is just a few minutes walk from the house, and it’s also an easy walk to the amazing basilica that can be seen from across Lyon, and to the Roman amphitheater and museum. The house itself was very comfortable and well equipped with everything we needed, very clean, comfortable bed, plenty of space for the two of us, and a lovely little garden area to sit for drinks and food. A real oasis. Philippe was an excellent host, extremely hospitable and helpful. We highly recommend this house to other travelers!

Pleasant stay
Philippe was very accommodating throughout our short stay in Lyon, even leaving fresh fruit for us. We did our best to speak French but Google Translate did the trick. Location was very convenient to the bus and funicular. Space was fine for two people. Only downside was having the tiny bathroom downstairs. Would be great to add window shades to the windows downstairs for more privacy.

Perfectly located comfortable well furnished property
We liked this property and it is exactly as advertised. Our host Philippe was very helpful, always on hand to help, but without intruding on our privacy. It was very comfortable, beautifully and tastefully furnished, with everything we needed. We were able to really relax. The area has plenty of take away food restaurants and other eateries and we enjoyed using the funicular(which was very close to the property) to visit the other sites in Lyon. We will be re booking another trip later this year and can't wait to visit Lyon and the little house again.

Philippe was a superb host and very kind. The house was perfect for our stay. The decor is very chic and everything you could need is provided even Netflix. We didn’t cook but the kitchen is very well equipped. The location is ideal as close to the historic sites and a walk down the hill, or use the funicular, to explore the other areas. There is so much to explore and many restaurants to choose from. Thank you again Philippe for your generous hospitality and we hope we can return in the future for a longer stay and explore Lyon further.
