Description for B&B:
Welcome to our vacation rental located just 50 meters away from the renowned Place de la Croix Rousse, in the heart of the historic neighborhood that once thrived with silk workers for more than a century and a half.Immerse yourself in the rich heritage of this area as you discover the fascinating world of silk production. For over 150 years, skilled workers operated the Jacquard loom, crafting exquisite rolls of fabric that would eventually grace the hands of Lyon's talented tailors. To protect these precious materials from rain, the workers navigated through the famous traboules – the secret passageways nestled within the buildings.
Your hosts, Christine and Pascal, are delighted to have you as their guests and are committed to ensuring that your stay is nothing short of exceptional. Feel free to reach out to them for any assistance or recommendations to enhance your experience in Lyon.
We hope you thoroughly enjoy your stay in this captivating city!
