Location & Transport
The hotel is on Place des Célestins, opposite the UNESCO-listed Célestins Theater. It's a 5-minute walk to Bellecour Metro Station, 2 stops from Perrache train station, and 40 minutes from Lyon-Saint Exupéry Airport. Nearby attractions include Place Bellecour, Vieux Lyon, and the Saône River embankment.
Eco-Friendly Initiatives
The hotel uses motion sensors for lighting, soap dispensers instead of single-use toiletries, and composts breakfast waste. Pipes are insulated, and thermostats are centrally controlled. Guests can opt out of daily towel changes to reduce water usage. The hotel invests in Time for the Planet, a nonprofit funding carbon-reduction innovations.

Staff provide 24/7 concierge services, including taxi bookings and local dining recommendations. Pets are welcome for €10 per day. A monitored underground parking lot is adjacent to the hotel. Bikes are available for exploring Lyon's cycle paths, including routes along the Rhône River.
“Hotel Des Artistes is a find in Lyon's Presqu'île, especially for those drawn to the Célestins theater and the buzz of Place Bellecour. Its commitment to sustainability, reflected in its Green Key certification, appeals to the culturally conscious traveler. I appreciate a hotel that blends into its surroundings, offering a genuine experience rather than generic luxury.”
