Hotel des Artistes, Lyon

A superb façade enriched with an old-style gable indicates without ambiguity the quality of this place. However, the room prices are far from astronomic, especially when you consider where it is situated: next to the Celestins Theater, virtually facing the Place Éponyme(one of the most tranquil of the center), and near to Bellecour. The rooms are decorated in warm red hues, or golden yellow shades and you can also see trace of cool colors here and there. You might also come across a famous fresco or two while at the hotel. What more could you ask for? Parking maybe, but the quays aren't far after all.
