Domaine du Gouverneur  

Set in Monthieux, about 1 km from the city center and a short stroll from Tête d'Or Park, Place de la Croix-Rousse and the Lyon Opera. A handy golf hotel too — you’re within a 15-minute drive of Golf du Gouverneur and Golf du Clou.

Forty-eight individually decorated guestrooms mix practical comforts and local flair with minibars and flat-screen TVs. Rooms have private bathrooms (shower/tub combos), complimentary toiletries and hairdryers — and the property is pet-friendly and family-friendly with playrooms for kids.

Wake up near park views, then dive into the outdoor pool or work out in the fitness center. There’s an outdoor tennis court, a massage room/spa, a bar/lounge, tour assistance, complimentary Wi‑Fi and free self parking onsite.

Seven meeting rooms plus a banquet/conference hall and meeting facilities make this a smart pick for events. The hotel also offers a 24-hour front desk, luggage storage and laundry services.

La Table du Gouverneur serves French cuisine on‑site, with a bar/lounge for evening drinks. Buffet breakfasts are available (weekdays 7:00–10:00, weekends 7:00–10:30) and limited room service is offered.
