Grenoble in numbers
Grenoble lies on the flat floor of a valley where the Isère meets the Drac, surrounded by three mountain ranges: the Chartreuse, the Vercors and Belledonne. The Bastille cable car, with its bubble-shaped cabins, lifts visitors from the riverside to the old fortress above the city for views of the Alps. Below, the old town around Place Grenette and Place Saint-André is compact and walkable, and the large university and research community gives the city a young, active feel. Stays range from international chains and boutique hotels in the centre to budget options near the station, guesthouses and serviced apartments, with ski resorts within an hour.
