Great stay in old Lyon

We had a lovely 2 night stay at Chez Sylvie, everything was perfect. As many have said previously, Sylvie is a fabulous host and really enjoys having people stay at her bed and breakfast. Great location in the old town of Lyon, and the steep hill really gets the heart racing! What an amazing city, so much to see and especially the beautiful Basilica at the top of the hill overlooking the city!

Sylvie was a delight to be with and so very welcoming and helpful. The room was lovely and fresh, with good views, good amenities, and a powerful shower. If I have the chance to come back, I would stay here again, not only for the room, but for Sylvie herself.

We enjoyed meeting our host, Sylvie, each morning for a delicious breakfast! Sylvie had wonderful suggestions for travel in Lyon and could answer any questions. Her place is so lovely and quiet on the cobblestone streets of Vieux Lyon. We highly recommend!

Sylvie’s little Gem!

Our stay with Sylvie was brilliant. A perfect host who was welcoming, very friendly and couldn’t do enough for us. She wanted us to have the best possible Lyon experience. Freshly made and beautiful breakfast every day. Sylvie always goes above and beyond to make her guests happy. Location perfect.
Cathy, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The property is beautiful and the view from the room is amazing. Sylvie is a wonderful hostess and strives to make your stay memorable. You do need to be in reasonable shape to walk the hill to get there, as well as to climb the stone stairs to the room. Given that, the short walk to shopping and restaurants makes the hill well worth it!

Perfect Location, Even Better Host

We had such a lovely stay at this charming bed and breakfast tucked away in the historic old quarter of Lyon. The location was perfect—easy walking distance to so many great restaurants, shops, and beautiful sites. The space itself was super cute and cozy, full of character that matched the charm of the area. Our host was absolutely wonderful—so sweet, welcoming, and genuinely fun to be around. We really enjoyed the breakfasts each morning, not just for the delicious food, but also for the great conversations we had with her. She made our time in Lyon even more memorable, and we felt like we were staying with a friend rather than just renting a room. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a place with heart and hospitality in one of the most beautiful parts of the city.

One of our favorite bed and breakfasts ever

Sylvie's BnB is absolutely amazing. We have done a lot of world travel, and Sylvie's place is unmatched. Her service is amazing and the room is exceptional. The location is central to many places in Vieux Lyon, making it very walkable. Sylvie is a spectacular host.

Séjour paradisiaque à Lyon

La maison de Sylvie est un mix entre une maison vénitienne et une habitation troglodyte de Santorin, ... avec la gastronomie lyonnaise à proximité. Merci à Sylvie pour son accueil, pour sa bienveillance et pour nos conversations pleines de richesse lors du petit dejeuner royal. Je recommande fortement la chambre Orchidée pour son confort, sa vue et son jacuzzi. Belle certitude : je reviendrai avec bonheur !

I absolutely loved the property and the room. I'm looking forward to returning.
Matthew, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This is a nice clean room situated smack dab in the middle of Old Lyon with easy access to a plethora of bouchons, cafe's, boulangeries, restaurants, and anything else you want to eat. We found it very cozy and despite a slight language barrier we communicated very well with our very accomodating host, Sylvie, and her husband Joseph. Since we are Cajuns, it was a highlight of our stay to be able to immerse ourselves in a real French environment and we would certainly stay here again. The only downside was the climb up the street and the stairs inside, but you can do it in stages to catch your breath.

The hosts are a most charming couple and they went out of their way to make us feel welcome. They helped with our luggage which was a godsend for two eighty year old travelers.

This is a beautiful room in a historical home near Old Lyon. Sylvie make a wonderful local breakfast each morning and is happy to recommend fun things to do each day if you’re curious. Sylvie also booked a car to the airport on the final day so there was no stress. Great experience!

Wonderful local experience.

Our stay was wonderful. Host Sylvie is an absolute gem. Very attentive and helpful. Wonderful breakfast and we loved conversing with her in broken english and google translate. Not good if you dont like steps or steep streets.

Very friendly owner who welcomed us and was present for any request. Highly recommend.
Hervé, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Sylvie is one of the best hosts you'll ever meet. She greeted us warmly when we arrived and her genuine friendly nature carried over during our brief stay in this 16th- century building. Actually, it feels more like a castle, with concrete steps, a winding staircase and old-world charm throughput. But there's nothing old-fashioned about it. The room is modern, spacious snd even has a jacuzzi. Sylvie's attention to detail is extraordinary, matching or exceeding many 5-star hotels. She really knows how to pamper her guests. What's more, Sylvie fixes a sensational & filling breakfast every morning. She enjoys hosting people and it shows. She's always smiling, laughing and makes you feel special. Stay here when you're in Lyon. Sylvie's hospitality can't be beat.

Comfortable accommodation in 'Le Vieux Lyon'

I loved this B&B, which is in an interesting old house, well situated in 'Le Vieux Lyon'. The room was very comfortable and well equipped and it was very quiet. Sylvie and her husband are very friendly and welcoming. Breakfast is served in their lovely kitchen/ dining room. There are lots of good restaurants close by. I would definitely recommend this accommodation.

The room and house were beautiful. Our bedroom was tastefully and playfully decorated. Sylvie is an amazing host. She gave us great restaurant recommendations and her breakfasts were fantastique! Perfect location- easy to walk around Lyon from the house. Merci Beacoup Sylvie!

Sylvie was welcoming and helpful, even lending me a coat when it rained. The location on a quiet side street in the old city is ideal. Plus, if you walk uphill then you will soon reach the Roman theater and museum. Altogether a memorable weekend in Lyon!

Sylvie, the most gracious hostess.

Sylvie is an amazing hostess. She prepared wonderful French/Lyonnaise style breakfasts and was very helpful providing information to this first time visitor to Lyon. Both her husband, Joseph, and Sylvie went out of their way to make my time in Vieux Lyon, and beyond, most enjoyable. Thank you Sylvie and Joseph.
