Le Phénix Hôtel

Le Phénix Hôtel is a mid-range hotel on Quai de Bondy, 69005 Lyon, on the west bank of the Saône in the Vieux Lyon and Fourvière district of the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region, France. The quay places the hotel at the foot of Fourvière hill, with the Renaissance streets of Vieux Lyon, the Saint-Jean cathedral district and the funicular up to the Basilica of Notre-Dame de Fourvière all within a short walk. The Presqu'île and Place Bellecour are reachable on foot by crossing one of the footbridges over the Saône, and metro stations at Vieux Lyon and Bellecour provide connections to the Part-Dieu and Perrache railway stations. The setting is the main appeal: the Saône riverbank, the pastel-coloured façades of the old town and the UNESCO-listed historic centre form the backdrop for a stay. Accommodation is organised around Double, Twin and Triple rooms, which suits couples, friends and small families, and wifi is listed among the amenities. Breakfast is available at the property, and the old-town streets nearby are known for traditional Lyonnais bouchons serving quenelles, andouillette and local wines, so most guests dine out within a few minutes of the front door. No spa, pool or fitness room is listed in the available information. The service character is that of a straightforward, good-value city hotel for sightseeing visitors rather than a business-oriented property. Typical nightly rates fall between about €120 and €260 depending on season and room type, with higher prices around the Fête des Lumières in early December and during trade fairs. Visitors should note that Vieux Lyon has cobbled lanes and steep gradients behind the quay, so luggage handling is easier when arriving by taxi to the front door. The hotel can be reached on +33 4 78 28 24 24 for questions about rooms and arrival. Evenings along the Saône quay are atmospheric, with lit façades reflected in the river, and the setting suits visitors who want to experience Lyon's historic core on foot.
