Hotel in Lyon Croix Rousse - Lyon 4th Arrondissement

Hotels in Lyon Croix Rousse District – 4th Arrondissement of Lyon

The Croix-Rousse is a hill and a section of town in the city of Lyon, France. It straddles the city’s 1st and 4th arrondissements and is divided up into two parts: the pentes (in the 1st arrondissement) and the plateau (4th arrondissement). Croix Rousse is the hilltop neighbourhood that housed many of Lyon's silk weavers during the 19th century.

The quarter of Croix Rousse is a popular Lyon tourist destination, not only because of its traboules, or narrow passageways, which connect many of its streets and buildings and the ruins in Croix Rousse, but also because of the market and shops, restaurants, and quaint cafes. The Croix-Rousse Market is a must-see if you get anywhere near this part of the city. Although the area is being gradually renovated, the Croix Rousse district still manages to retain an atmosphere that feels more like a small village than a busy commercial city.
