Daisy's Assessment
Researched and verified. Not yet personally stayed.
“Villa Maïa is a small five-star hotel on the Fourvière hill, beside the Roman theatres and above Vieux Lyon. It has thermal baths with a 20 m indoor pool, and Christian Têtedoie's restaurant sits just across the way. It suits a couple with a dog who want a quiet base above the city with green space close by.

Why it's in the collection

The Parc des Hauteurs and the Jardin du Rosaire start a few minutes' walk away on the same hill, and the Fourvière esplanade is close by. Walk down the montées to the Saône quays in Vieux Lyon for a longer flat stroll along the river.

Best suited for

EUR 30 a night, and the hotel hasn't set out weight or number limits, so ask when you book.

Dogs stay in the guest rooms and have the run of a secure garden. Ask the hotel about the thermal baths, the bar and the restaurant before you arrive.

Where we can't yet confirm a detail first-hand, we mark it plainly rather than guess. A Daisy stay will close every gap.
