Your host is a retired French woman living in Lyon’s 5th arrondissement, in a comfortable apartment ideally located for international students. She has two grown-up children who no longer live at home and there are no pets in the apartment.
She enjoys theatre, cinema, travelling and gardening, and has access to a community garden. Her interests and lifestyle make this homestay a great opportunity for students who would like to practise their French and enjoy conversations about French culture and everyday life in Lyon.
The student has a private bedroom with a double bed, desk and chair, wardrobe and shelves, providing a comfortable space for both studying and relaxing. The bathroom is shared with the host. The apartment is also equipped with Wi-Fi, TV and a computer.
As shown in the photos, the home has a welcoming living room and a modern kitchen, while the student bedroom offers a cosy and private environment.
One of the main advantages of this homestay is its central location. The apartment is just a 3-minute walk from Vieux Lyon metro station (Line D), making it particularly convenient for students studying in different parts of the city.
Perrache train station is around 20 minutes away on foot, while Part-Dieu can be reached in approximately 20 minutes by metro.
This homestay is an excellent option for an international student looking for a central location, an independent and peaceful home environment, and the opportunity to experience everyday French life with a local host.
