Spa in Lyon

Sofitel Lyon Bellecour, Hôtel & Spa de Chassieu, and L’Ermitage on Mont Cindre: three Lyon addresses where you can book spa access, a treatment, or a package including a meal, for yourself or as a gift.

Lyon, the capital of Gaul and gastronomy, is also a city of art where the art of hospitality takes on its full meaning. Accessing a spa in a high-end 4- or 5-star hotel does not require booking a room. With Sezame, you can enjoy a wellness escape as an external visitor, between the Rhône and Saône rivers on the Presqu’île, east of the city in Chassieu, or on the heights of the Monts d’Or. Browse the experiences, book online, and simply arrive at the hotel.

Lyon’s Hotel Spas Available with Sezame

Sofitel Spa by Deep Nature, Sofitel Lyon Bellecour

In the heart of the Presqu’île, along the riverfront, Sofitel Lyon Bellecour is a five-star hotel whose spa is a true wellness haven created by Deep Nature. The elegance of the setting is immediately apparent, with soft lighting, refined materials, and attentive staff.

Three experiences can be booked through Sezame: the Relaxation Moment, offering access to the spa area only; the Facial Treatment & Spa experience, combining a facial protocol with spa access; and the Massage & Spa experience, which includes a full-body massage and complete access to the facilities. It is the perfect address for a premium break in the city centre.

Hôtel & Spa de Chassieu

East of Lyon and easily accessible by car from the city centre and Part-Dieu, Hôtel & Spa de Chassieu features the AquaZen area, with a hammam, sauna, and hot tub.

Two Sezame experiences are available: the Relaxing & Gourmet Escape, which combines spa access and a meal, and the AquaZen Treatment & Brasserie Menu experience, combining a professional treatment with lunch at the restaurant. It is an ideal choice for a half-day of relaxation and dining just outside Lyon, for one or two people.

L’Ermitage, on the Heights of Mont Cindre

Twenty minutes from Lyon, on Mont Cindre hill in Saint-Cyr-au-Mont-d’Or, L’Ermitage Hôtel offers panoramic views over the city and the Monts d’Or. This four-star hotel offers three experiences combining wellness and Lyon’s gastronomic culture: Lunch & Relaxation, Panoramic Evening, and Flavours on the Horizon.

It is an elegant destination for anyone looking for peace and quiet, a beautiful view, and a refined meal away from the city lights.

What a Spa Session in Lyon Includes

Hammam, Sauna, and Pool

Inspired by Roman baths, the architecture of Lyon’s hotel spas is built around several spaces: a hammam for gentle heat and steam, a sauna for dry heat, an indoor pool, a hot tub, and a relaxation room. Some establishments also include a fitness area.

The equipment and services available at each location are listed on the individual pages in our wellness spaces section, together with all practical information and contact details.

Massages and Facial Treatments

Body massages, beauty treatments, skincare rituals, and signature experiences are carried out in treatment rooms by qualified therapists, with sessions lasting between 30 and 90 minutes.

The treatment is generally combined with access to the wellness area, allowing you to enjoy the hammam or sauna before or after your session. It is the complete experience of a luxury hotel spa, with both body and skin cared for in the same location.

Spa and Dining on the Same Day

Lyon is a gastronomic capital, home to Michelin-starred restaurants and the culinary heritage of Paul Bocuse. Several Sezame partner hotels combine spa access and dining in the same experience.

In Chassieu, the AquaZen Treatment & Brasserie Menu experience combines a treatment with lunch. At L’Ermitage, the Lunch & Relaxation and Panoramic Evening experiences make the restaurant an essential part of the day. Two Lyon experiences brought together in a single occasion.
