One of the Old-School Hotels - La Tour Rose of Lyon

If you ever visit Lyon and you feel like choosing a hotel which should stand out from the rest, a special hotel, with a personality of its own, brimming with originality and charm, well, La Tour de Rose packs all this and much more.   

La Tour Rose – for a touch of romance
This hotel boasts an ideal location for tourists. That’s because when you’re a carefree tourist in a city like Lyon, with its 2000 year-long adventurous history, in what other place than in the Old Quarter, the Vieux Lyon, could you better immerse yourself in this unique atmosphere? You’ll find La Tour Rose right in the middle of an urban area where one can still fell the heart of the ancient town beating, a delicate tremor easily lost in other districts of the city, suffocated by the lifeless mechanical noise of modernity. But down on old Rue du Boeuf, in one of the enchanted chambers of the Tour Rose, perhaps you’ll be able to hear this age-old whisper and maybe you’ll see in your dreams  the streets and people of Lyon as they once were.


The non-poetical advantages of La Tour Rose
This is for those of you with a more practical nature. Know that, by staying here, you’ll also have the advantage of being close to the Basilica and to many museums, all in easy to reach walking distance. And don’t you think that La Tour Rose, as romantic and thrillingly haunted by the past as it is, could very well be a sorry dump, all dark and moldy. On the contrary, its architecture preserved the charming influences of the Renaissance, still managing to show a modern originality of its own.  

12 ways to have a pleasant stay at La Tour Rose
A convenient and beautiful location, an elegant design, these are highlights that many hotels boast about. But they would not appease the righteous anger of the tourist who finds out that poor accommodation lies hidden behind a colorful facade. La Tour Rose will surprise you in this regard, but it’s a pleasant surprise. You see, its 12 rooms and suites are not only elegant and comfortable, but they will each charm you in their own way with their unique atmosphere. For example, the Chambre Bucol will welcome you with a rustic warmth amidst which you will be far more comfortable than in the cold decor of a modern hotel room. Yet this is not what you will find in the other rooms of La Tour Rose. So, next time, you can very well choose the Chambre Tissage in all its Renaissance splendor or maybe the richly elegant Chambre Les Ennoblisseurs

More restaurant than usual
Also, La Tour Rose offers you an exceptional restaurant, which means you don’t have to make those bothersome daily trips to some neighborhood bistro – that happens with many hotels, not with this one. The interior of the La Tour Rose restaurant parades the same diversity of tastes as the menu that you’ll have before you.  

A comfortable perspective
So this is how your Lyon vacation would look like if you decide to stay at La Tour Rose. You’ll have peace and tranquility also, as the hotel is located in an area with little traffic, just right for those long romantic walks. During these expeditions in the charming labyrinth of Vieux Lyon, you can do some shopping or you can stop at one of the cafes and bars and have a drink. And when, eventually, you are barely able to drag your feet and your stomach demands a raise, you will turn towards La Tour Rose with a delightful impatience, thinking about that scrumptious dinner and that cozy room. By the way, even if it’s several centuries old, this hotel of yours provides a high standard of comfort, and not only in its rooms, but also on its garden, terraces, bar, restaurant and so on. But, maybe more important than this, the staff are really all right here, they’re ready to solve your problems and also to tell you lots of things about what you, a tourist in Lyon, can do for fun while visiting their city.  

That’s La Tour Rose for you, an old school hotel. And it’s a fact that people come back to this hotel year after year just to bask in the warmth that its ancient walls (modernly refurbished - have no fear) seem to contain.
