The bastille on a good weather day is definitely a must.You can see for miles.The mountain army museum was very intrresting.

3/5 - Okay

Verified traveller

Sadly underwhelming. Parts of the city were pretty, with beautiful buildings, but we were taken aback by the amount of graffiti everywhere (even at the Bastille) and broken glass where cars had been broken into.

4/5 - Good

5/5 - Excellent

Grenoble is a fantastic city to visit for a short break of a few days. For a longer break, the city of Lyon has more to offer. Lyon and Grenoble are very easy to travel between with frequent buses (approx 1 hour, €15).
