Meet Your Host Family in Central Lyon

This warm and welcoming family lives in a spacious 135 m² apartment in the heart of Lyon. The household includes the parents, their two grown-up children, born in 2001 and 2003, and a cat. The father works as a senior consultant in QSE and ISO management systems, while the mother is a professional lyric artist and sings with the Opéra de Lyon choir.

Culture and the arts are an important part of family life. They enjoy reading, cinema, music, film photography and travelling, as well as outdoor activities such as hiking and cycling. Their home offers international students a friendly environment in which to discover French daily life, practice their French and enjoy a genuine cultural experience.

The family lives in a beautiful and spacious apartment with three bedrooms, a large living room, a kitchen, two bathrooms and two toilets. Wi-Fi is available throughout the home, and music is very much part of the atmosphere, with a guitar and clarinet in the apartment.

The student has a comfortable private bedroom furnished with a 140 × 190 cm bed, a desk for studying, a sofa and a wardrobe. The room provides plenty of space to feel at home, study and relax in privacy.

Located in Lyon’s 2nd arrondissement, the apartment is well connected to the rest of the city by Metro Line A and several bus services, making it a convenient base for an international student studying in Lyon.

With its spacious home, central location and strong interest in culture, music and travel, this host family offers students a wonderful opportunity to experience life in Lyon in a comfortable and welcoming French home.

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
