Luxury Boutique Hotel in the center of Lyon

Located in the heart of Lyon's peninsula, in the Ainay district, the Hôtel de l'Abbaye is an authentic, intimate and charming place to stay. The hotel is just a few minutes' walk from the famous Place Bellecour, the largest square in Europe. This discreet, historic address has been carefully refurbished, while preserving its soul of yesteryear.

Lovers of Lyon, schoolchildren and poets are all familiar with the streets of the 2nd arrondissement, which lead to the majestic Romanesque basilica of Ainay and its authentic former presbytery.

Now transformed into a 4-star hotel, our team is at your disposal to make your stay as pleasant as possible.

Discover our modern design rooms

The Hôtel de l'Abbaye d'Ainay has been carefully furnished and decorated in collaboration with Lyon-based decorators Maison Hand.

The hotel's twenty-one comfortable, spacious rooms are spread over several floors, each with its own unique atmosphere: 70s ambiance on the second floor, contemporary design by Maison Hand on the second, and a mix & match atmosphere on the top floor.

All are designed to meet your every need.
