Hôtel des Facultés

Hôtel des Facultés is a 1-star budget hotel at 104 Rue Sébastien Gryphe in the 7th arrondissement of Lyon, France, in the Guillotière and Jean-Macé area on the left bank of the Rhône within the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region. The 7th arrondissement is a lively, multicultural district with markets, inexpensive restaurants and a large student population, and the name of the hotel refers to the nearby university faculties, including campuses of Université Lumière Lyon 2 and Lyon 3. Rue Sébastien Gryphe is a long street running through the Guillotière and Jean-Macé neighbourhoods, close to the Jean-Macé station, which is served by metro line B and a rail stop, and to the Guillotière transit area on metro line D. Place Bellecour is reachable in around fifteen minutes by metro or a longer walk across the Rhône, and Part-Dieu railway station is a short metro ride away. The hotel is a budget option with typical rates of about €60 to €120 per night and lists single, double and twin rooms, with wifi and an optional breakfast. No restaurant, pool or spa is listed in the available data, and the one-star classification points to basic service. The service character is that of a modest, traditional budget hotel suited to students, visiting academics, solo travellers and visitors who prefer a local neighbourhood to the tourist core. The Guillotière area is known for its varied food, including North African, Turkish, Asian and French cuisine at moderate prices, and for the Marché de la Guillotière and the Place Gabriel Péri. The Rhône riverbanks, with their riverside walks and the large Parc de Gerland and Parc de la Tête d'Or accessible by transit, add recreation options. The hotel can be reached on +33 4 78 72 22 65 or at hotel-des-facultes.com. Visitors attending university events, open days or conferences will find the location convenient, and the metro makes the historic Presqu'île and Vieux Lyon easy to reach in the evenings.
