Caluire is a gem in the Lyon region!
The apartment is located near the “Voie Vert” which is a beautiful biking, walking and running trail that is car-free through its 7km length. The neighborhoods of Caluire are all close by. It is definitely worth it to walk and explore the neighborhoods of Caluire.
The apartment is in a very quiet neighborhood yet there are three different TCL bus stops close by that can frequently take you to a number of locations within Lyon - Parc Tete D’Or, Bellecour, Vieux Lyon and more.
Though Lyon has many terrific restaurants, we did quite a bit of cooking at the apartment. Fortunately, the apartment was walking distance between two Auchan supermarkets, so fetching groceries was very easy. Two wine stores are also less than 200m away!
I run long distances for fun, and Caluire is a terrific place to start and finish from. It is about 26km total from the Caluire-Bourg neighborhood to the confluence of the Saone and Rhône rivers, if you run along the beautiful waterfront paths.
The apartment itself receives a lot of sunlight during the day. there is a small desk in the bedroom that made it easy for me to work on my laptop computer. The apartment and the whole town of Caluire-et-Cuire are both very dog-friendly; our visit during the early autumn had nice meals on the restaurant’s terraces.
I am so glad the washing machine was there —it made our stay much more practical. Overall I really enjoyed my time there and would definitely stay again if i could.
