Hôtel du Théâtre

Hôtel du Théâtre is a budget hotel on Rue de Savoie in the 2nd arrondissement of Lyon, France, within walking distance of Place Bellecour on the Presqu'île. The street lies in the southern half of the peninsula between the Rhône and the Saône, close to the Bellecour and Ampère-Victor Hugo metro stations, the Saône quays and the footbridges to Vieux Lyon. The area mixes residential blocks, cafés, antique dealers and small restaurants, and it offers a more local atmosphere than the busiest shopping streets while keeping the main sights within a short walk. Place Bellecour, with its equestrian statue of Louis XIV and views up to the Fourvière basilica, is only minutes away, and the Rhône embankments are an easy stroll to the east. Rooms are offered as Single Rooms, Double Rooms and Twin Rooms, with typical rates of about 75 to 150 euros per night, which suits visitors looking for a central base at a moderate price. Wifi and a breakfast service are listed amenities, and the hotel has a website for direct reservations. There is no spa, pool or restaurant, so meals are taken at the surrounding bouchons, brasseries and bakeries, a convenient arrangement in a city known for its food. The service character is that of a small independent hotel, where reception staff can recommend restaurants and walking routes and help with luggage. The property suits couples, solo travellers and friends on city breaks of one to four nights, as well as business travellers who prefer the Presqu'île to the Part-Dieu district. The streets around the hotel are generally calm in the evening, though guests who are light sleepers can request a quieter room. Visitors arriving by car should check parking options in advance, since central parking is limited and paid. Lyon Perrache station is within a short walk, and Part-Dieu station is reached by metro in about ten minutes.
