This cosy gem of an apartment was perfectly situated for everything we had planned. It’s very close to the metro and some of the nicest restaurants and bars in Vieux Lyon. The famous open food market on the Quai de St Antoine is around a five minute walk. We like to cook, so it was a delicious treat to be able to stroll to the market on Easter Sunday morning, selecting the best of ingredients and wines and return to our own place to cook a feast fit for a queen in the well-equipped kitchen.
The historic area is literally outside the door of the property. In spite of it being so close to everything, the apartment itself is peaceful and very quiet. We slept very well. It’s in a listed building and retains many fascinating original features. It is spotlessly clean and beautifully decorated. We had everything we needed . . . And more. There were so many thoughtful little extras.
Patricia and Bernard could not have been more welcoming. They made every effort to make us feel completely at home. They were charming hosts: great communicators, attentive, thoughtful, gave us some great tips on the locale (including a terrific jazz bar only a minute from our front door) and generally went the extra mile to ensure that we had the very best experience. I can’t thank them enough.
We spent six days Chez Patricia et Bernard. The small taste we had of this fascinating city made us hungry for more!
Merci Patricia and Bernard. We’ll definitely be back.
