Hotels: hotel market trends in Lyon (France, Europe)
Lyon counts on hotels for business
After a remarkable increase in demand in 2007 (7%), the hotel market in Lyon seems to have been spared from the difficulties afflicting French hotels and tourism.
As proof of the sector’s good resistance in the Lyon urban area, the average price per room is rising
High-quality hotels
With 1,000 additional rooms since 2003, hotels in the Lyon urban agglomeration counted 11,800 certified rooms at the end of December 2008.
They are found in some 190 hotels, including around 100 in the center of Lyon.
Although Paris is still the leader in French tourism, Lyon is well positioned:
- whereas the average rate for three-and four-star hotels is 36% nationally,
- that of Greater Lyon attains 41%, ahead of most other large cities.

- three- and four-star hotels continue to be created and now represent 41% of the offer, clearly above the national level (36%);
- Lyon is pulling ahead in RPR with respect to other provincial destinations with €97 (excluding taxes) in 2008 for three-star hotels*.

Revenue per room on the rise for most categories
They have greatly contributed to maintaining the growth of Lyon in the past few years :
- The development of large structural equipment:
- creation of a 3,000-seat Amphitheater at the Convention Center,
- multiple extensions of the Eurexpo Exhibition
- Center marketing actions undertaken by the Convention Office of the Greater Lyon Tourism Office.
In 2008, the RPR of all categories increased except for four-star hotels,
- which price stabilized at an average of €145
- and more than €173 in the center of Lyon.
The average price per room progressed by 2.6% to reach €84.
