Airbnb management in Lyon
As much a conference city as a tourist one
France's second largest university hub and a major conference venue, Lyon pairs very steady business demand with tourism fuelled by its gastronomy and by Vieux Lyon, the UNESCO-listed old town.

from Paris by high-speed TGV
Two kinds of guest, not to be confused
Business travellers book from Monday to Thursday, often at the last minute, and want to be close to Part-Dieu or public transport. They are not very price-sensitive, but they are very demanding about the internet connection and peace and quiet.
Tourists book weekends and holidays several weeks ahead, and look for Vieux Lyon or the Presqu'île. A property that targets both has to adjust its prices day by day, which is exactly what dynamic pricing is for.
December, a month like no other
The Fête des Lumières draws several million visitors over four days and sends demand for accommodation soaring. These dates need preparing from the summer onwards, with a minimum stay and prices in a different league from the rest of the month.
Lyon also requires furnished holiday lets to be registered, and change of use authorisation applies to second homes in several arrondissements. We advise you on your own situation before anything goes live.
When demand peaks
A pattern shaped by conferences, peaking in December thanks to the Fête des Lumières.
Busiest month in Lyon: December. Quietest: January. An indicative spread of demand, to give you a sense of scale. Your personalised estimate, on the other hand, is built on real booking data for your area.
The areas that perform best
Not every neighbourhood earns the same, and the income gap between two addresses in Lyon is often wider than you might think.
Vieux Lyon and Fourvière
The quintessential tourist quarter, with its hidden traboule passageways and high rates in peak season.
Presqu'île
Shops, restaurants and train stations all within walking distance. The best compromise for attracting business and leisure guests alike.
Croix-Rousse
A village feel, drawing guests who want something authentic and tend to stay longer.
Part-Dieu and Confluence
Business and conference districts, where demand is concentrated on weekdays.
