Short break
Lovely hotel in great setting. It is a steep climb back up to hotel when visiting Viuex Lyon on foot but best way to get around. Plenty of options for food and drink nearby. Only downside at present is getting luggage to and from hotel whilst roadworks are being carried out but this is temporary
