Description

A welcoming host family in the heart of Lyon

This friendly retired couple welcomes international students into their home in Lyon’s 2nd arrondissement, right in the city centre. Their apartment is located on a quiet street, offering students both a peaceful home environment and easy access to everything Lyon has to offer.

The couple enjoys reading, music and horse riding. Music is an important part of their life, and the host enjoys playing both the guitar and harmonica. They offer a warm environment for students who would like to experience everyday French life and practise their French through conversation and shared moments.

The apartment is spacious and full of character, with traditional wooden floors and comfortable shared living areas, as shown in the photos.

The student has a comfortable bedroom equipped with a queen-size bed, bedside table, small desk, sofa, chest of drawers and clothes rack. The room also benefits from a private shower, and Wi-Fi is available in the apartment.

One of the main advantages of this homestay is its location. Perrache train station is only a 3-minute walk away, providing immediate access to the metro, tram, buses and trains. This makes the home particularly convenient for international students who want to explore Lyon and travel easily to their university or school.

This homestay is an excellent choice for a student looking for a central location, independence and the opportunity to share authentic French daily life with welcoming hosts.

For confidentiality reasons, we cannot publish photos of the family and the front of the house. If you are interested in the family, we can send you photos once contact is established.


About 2nd district

The 2nd district of Lyon is situated at the southern extremity of the Presquile formed by the Saône and the Rhône. The Presquile is situated between the Rhône and the Saône and is the central part of Lyon. The Presquile links one part of the first and second districts and is in high demand by students as it is easy to get back and forth at any hour by subway, bike or on foot. It’s the heart of Lyon, one of the best shopping areas with numerous stores, pedestrian streets (Victor Hugo avenue and Rue de la République). It also has the largest square in Europe known as the Place Bellecour which has in its centre, the famous statue of Louis XIV. One part of this district to the south has seen a new project emerge called “Confluence” which means meeting of the two, which refers to both rivers. It is an urban renewal project for the centre of Lyon with new accommodation, office buildings and shopping centres which include modern and colourful architecture. You can reach this area by taking a ferryboat. Check our other rooms in 2nd district
