InterContinental Lyon - Hotel Dieu

I travel abroad often and cannot say enough positive things regarding this hotel. We were greeted with a warm welcome. Our room was beautiful with all the amenities available. The concierge service was incredibly helpful with recommendations. And the location could not be beat. If you are staying in Lyon this is your place!

I came upon this hotel during a previous visit to Lyon and knew immediately that I would like to stay here. We booked two nights here through AMEX FHR and got everything the program promised, including early check-in, late check out and upgrades. We spent the first night in a bilevel junior suite. The suite has a huge window framing the river view and is stunning. However we found navigating the staircase multiple times a day hard on our jet lagged bodies. So we asked to move to a different room the next day. Louise st the front desk was very understanding and helped make the move happen very smoothly. This second room is also spacious and well appointed. We were very happy with it. We found the staff here to be some of the best. Everyone we interacted with was pleasant and helpful. In addition to Louise, I would like to give a special shoutout to Mohammed at the concierge desk. He immediately understood what we were seeking and gave very good recommendations for things to do and restaurants to dine at. Another highlight of the stay was the bar Le Dôme. I was told it has been voted the best hotel bar and I can see why. In addition to drinks, we were able to eat dinner here one day and afternoon tea the other. Both were very good. Last but not least, the hotel is ideally situated for sightseeing in Lyon. We walked everywhere and only took a taxi going to and from the TGV station.

A beautifully renovated building with stunning complimentary interiors and exteriors. Situated in the best part of Lyon and was once a hospital. Overlooking the Rhone river. Accommodation was top notch, clean, spacious and the use of the high ceilings was admirable too. The outdoor gardens maintain the overall tranquil feel of the whole hotel. It’s architecturally stunning. Service was second to none. From the moment you arrive you are greeted with friendly, attentive and knowledgeable staff. @ledome_bar, Oh the cocktails were amazing, the bartender even offered customised ones. Sad I did not get pictures as they were visually beautiful. Thank you for a memorable experience. See you again soon. 🌟

The only thing wrong with our recent four night stay was that it wasn't long enough! Beautiful hotel, excellent location. Wonderful staff. Great breakfast buffet. Everything from arrival, with the staff whisking our bags from the Uber to our room to departure was just top notch. The only ever so slightly negative was that the combined tub/shower was a little difficult for me to get in and out of, since it's very high and I am quite petite. But that's minor considering how excellent everything else was. Highly recommend this lovely hotel and hope to return someday!

We stayed for 2 nights after skiing in early January in our way to Bordeaux. Fantastic hotel in the best part of Lyon, walking distance to most places. When we checked in there was a cot in the room but my daughter is 16 so they changed it for a small bed which was not good at all. When we brought this to their attention they were so accomodating because they upgraded us to a larger room with a better bed for my daughter. We had a dinner in the restaurant at the hotel which was great and the bar has a lively ambience and was busy on the nights we were there. Finally the concierge was amazing. He gave excellent advice and also booked two excellent restaurants for us to try!! Will stay there again.
