Appart'hôtel Odalys City - Bioparc Lyon Est
Lovely apartment hotel on the outskirts of Lyon. We are a family of 4 and it was nice to have a separate bedroom. Reception staff really helpful with directions and places to visit in Lyon. The metro is walkable in 7 mins, with easy direct trains into Lyon in 15/20 mins. Would definitely stay here ...
