Description for B&B:
The vacation rental is situated just 50 meters away from the iconic Place de la Croix Rousse, immersing you in the vibrant heart of this renowned neighborhood that served as a residence for silk workers for more than 150 years. These skilled artisans diligently operated Jacquard looms, meticulously weaving rolls of fabric which were then transported to Lyon tailors. To protect their precious cargo from rain, they navigated through the famous traboules, a network of passageways nestled within buildings.Christine and Pascal are delighted to extend their warm hospitality and ensure that your stay is nothing short of exceptional. They are readily available to cater to your needs and make your time in Lyon as enjoyable as possible. Embrace the charm of Lyon during your stay!
