The rooms

Bed and breakfast with pool in Lyon

Comfort made easy

Effet Lodge offers five guest rooms in Lyon, all different, but united by a common thread: comfort and serenity. Each room is equipped with top-of-the-range bedding, private bathroom, terrace access and air conditioning. All of them have access to the 15-metre heated swimming pool, the garden and the terraces: the comfort of a hotel with a pool, the welcome of a guest house. The atmosphere is soft, the decor inspired by travel, and natural light is omnipresent. Some offer a view of the garden or pool, others a more intimate, hushed setting. Whichever you choose, you’ll find the perfect balance of elegance, simplicity and authenticity.

Immerse yourself in the exotic ambience of the Gamboa room, where a king-size bed invites you to relax, a chic jungle spirit blends with light wood accents, and soft light filters in from the window onto the terrace – a tropical haven just a stone’s throw from Lyon. The Gamboa room features a bathroom that opens onto the sleeping area, for a modern, flowing atmosphere.

A visit to Lyon is like leafing through a book: each page reveals a different atmosphere. Vieux Lyon for its Renaissance charm, the banks of the Rhône for their vitality, the Croix-Rousse for its bohemian soul, and the Presqu’île for its boutiques and museums. From Saint-Cyr, you can easily reach the center of town, while enjoying the calm and greenery on your return. Effet Lodge is the ideal starting point for discovering this World Heritage city, where gastronomy, culture and the good life are intertwined.
