La Villa Roassieux

Top choice in Lyon & the Rhône Valley


You wouldn't expect to find such a gem of a B&B in a neighbourhood that's known for its rows of charmless buildings. Occupying a manor dating from 1900, it includes three elegant rooms and one large suite. Country-chic decor, large bathrooms, period furniture and a dash of old-fashioned charm make this a memorable choice. It's on a hill southeast of the centre.

The breakfast and evening meals (€25) are something to remember. And yes, there's a heated saltwater pool, accessible between May and September.
