This charming character hotel is on Lyon's presqu'ile, the peninsula that lies between the Rhone and the Soane rivers at the heart of the city. This is an absolutely ideal location to discover France's second city, many would say its culinary capital: within easy walking distance, you can reach the magnificent Place de la Republique, the old city with its narrow medieval streets and cathedral, the stairs or the elevator to the Basilica and mini Eiffel tower at Fouviere on the cliff overlooking the old city.

The main appeal of the hotel Globe et Cecil, an elegant residence in downtown Lyon, is the sheer refinement of the rooms - bright, warm colors and a host of cozy sitting rooms, combined with friendly personal service promise an enjoyable stay in a comfortable surrounding.
