Lyon Hotels with Wellness Centre

Plenty of tourists, traveling to the Alps usually have interchange in Lyon (the capital of the Rhone-Alpes area). But the city itself is a splendid place for spending there a week or two. The location on track crossings makes it ideal place for having a holiday: on the one hand you can enjoy the architecture and good cuisine of Lyon, and on the other hand if you just get tired of everlasting hustle of the city, it'll take you only 2 hours to get to the mountain resort in the Alps and the Mediterranean. Lyon is one of the best places for those, who want to laze in the sun and have the rest of lifetime. More than that, it's the second greatest economical center in France.

In 1998 Lyon's town center was put in the UNESCO World Heritage List (at that time only a few cities could boast of it). Every corner of Lyon has its own distinguished features, which you will never mix with each other. Another thing that makes Lyon stand out is the contrast in the placing between Fourviere Hill and Croix-Rousse Hill. It's also special that it takes place between two rivers – the Rhone and the Saone. Speaking about the heritage of this city, we can't consider it two be just a typical city in the north of France or a traditional city with Latin influence. Lyon has this specific mixture of the two styles, and maybe, this very mixture makes it so attractive and charming.
