Lyon was the first place where the grotty nature of French hostels really presented itself! Apparently males and females couldn't share dorms despite them relenting to someone else straight after we asked! Our hostel was up a massive hill - we had to get a hill train up there.

Hostel View City View

Anyyyyyway, the city itself was ace - beautiful bridges and views of the river, a large outdoor swimming pool, and a lovely cafe culture.

Pretty Square Square again

Browny A building!

Browny and I also got stuck in a massive thunderstorm and were unsuccessfully forced to leg it back up the hill to the hostel after it rudely interrupted our crepe eating! This was one episode of rain that we quite enjoyed however!

Lyon scores... 8/10. Had a rather quality time here. It was just lovely to walk around, and sit in the little cafes, watching life go by.
Best things: Actually the thunderstorm. And sitting down by the river at night. Lyon by night = gorgeous.
Worst things: The rather scummy state of the hostel!
Return Visit? Yeah, would be lovely actually, tres sophisticated.
