Partnerships
Because we’re lucky enough to be well surrounded… Let us introduce you to our partners, our friends, our neighbors – in short, those who make the Globe & Cecil experience possible.
OnlyLyon
For over a century (the 120th anniversary trophy will be awarded in 2025), our company has been working hand in hand with the players who make Lyon shine, and OnlyLyon is one of them. The territorial brand, as we know it today, was launched in 2007 to promote Lyon internationally, but it is based on a much longer history of cooperation between local institutions, businesses and tourism players.
Its mission: to promote Lyon as a major European metropolis where innovation, culture, gastronomy and the art of living come together. Through its international campaigns, its network of ambassadors and its initiatives to attract talent, students and visitors, OnlyLyon contributes to making the city’s heart beat far beyond the banks of the Rhône and Saône rivers. And as innkeepers at heart, we’re proud to have been part of it for generations.
Lyon Tourism and Conventions
It’s impossible to talk about hospitality in Lyon without mentioning Lyon Tourisme et Congrès, the official body responsible for promoting the destination and supporting visitors and event organizers alike. The organization manages the city’s tourist offices and develops the city’s tourist appeal.
It also plays a key role in the organization of international conventions and in showcasing Lyon’s heritage, whether in terms of gastronomy, history or the city’s cultural wealth. For us, as an independent hotelier in the heart of the Presqu’île, it’s an invaluable partner: one that helps travelers discover Lyon in all its generosity… and to push open the door of the good houses.
Théâtre des Célestins
Just a few steps from the hotel stands one of Lyon’s cultural landmarks: the Théâtre des Célestins. Inaugurated in the XIXᵉ century on the site of a former convent, this Italian-style theater is now one of the largest public theaters in France.
Its programming combines contemporary creations, great works from the repertoire and international shows, attracting tens of thousands of spectators every year. For our travelers, it’s a rare opportunity: step out of the hotel, cross the Place des Célestins and, a few minutes later, find yourself immersed in the magic of live entertainment. A neighborhood we never tire of.
Printemps Lyon
A French retail institution founded in Paris in 1865, Printemps has embodied elegance and innovation in the world of department stores for over a century. In Lyon, its Presqu’île address has become a landmark for lovers of fashion, beauty and carefully selected objects.
In fact, we couldn’t resist becoming partners to spoil our respective customers… A veritable temple to Lyon-style shopping, Printemps contributes to the commercial vitality of the city center, attracting locals and visitors alike. For our guests, it’s the perfect opportunity to stroll between two appointments, discover the latest trends or simply take advantage of the shopping energy of the Presqu’île, with why not, a personal shopper or nice discounts.
Lyon Stock Exchange
It’s impossible to miss the Palais de la Bourse as you stroll between Place des Cordeliers and the quays of the Rhône. Built in the XIXᵉ century under Napoleon III, this monumental building is one of the great symbols of Lyon’s commercial prosperity.
Today managed by the Lyon Chamber of Commerce and Industry, it hosts professional events, conferences and receptions in a spectacular architectural setting. For the city and visitors alike, it’s a reminder that Lyon has long been a place of exchange, commerce and ideas. And for a historic hotel like ours, it’s a prestigious neighbor that perfectly embodies the enterprising spirit of the capital of the Gauls.
