Renowned worldwide for its gastronomy, its cultural vitality and its Festival of Lights, Lyon is one of the leading tourist cities in France... a subtle blend of tradition and contemporary energy within a cosmopolitan city.

Ideally located between the Park de la Tete d’Or and the Rhone River, the Hotel Crowne Plaza Lyon – Cite Internationale features unique architecture designed by the famous Italian architect Renzo Piano. While it is only minutes away from the city centre, its shops and the historical centre, the hotel nestles within a quiet, verdant setting.

Known as the Cite Internationale, the site used to host the former Lyon World Fair until 1984. The municipality then decided to launch an architecture competition for the development of the vacant land, which was won by Italian architect Renzo Piano.
Blueprints for the Cite Internationale began in 2000, and comprised the Lyon Convention Centre. Open in November 2006, the Hotel Crowne Plaza Lyon – Cite Internationale fits perfectly into the surrounding of modern and original architecture.

The hotel features 156 spacious guest rooms, including 7 suites, with contemporary décor and a superb view overlooking either the Park de la Tete d’Or or the Rhone River.
