Lyon Marriott Hotel Cité Internationale

Lyon Marriott Hotel Cité Internationale is a four-star upscale hotel at 70 Quai Charles de Gaulle, 69006 Lyon, on the Cité Internationale site beside the Parc de la Tête d'Or, in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region of France. The Cité Internationale is a modern riverside district on the east bank of the Rhône, designed by Renzo Piano, which includes the Palais des Congrès, the Museum of Contemporary Art, a cinema complex, restaurants and offices. The hotel's position beside the main entrance to the park gives guests direct access to its lake, rose garden, botanical glasshouses and free zoo, which is a distinctive advantage for a hotel of this category. The city centre is reachable by bus and tram links from the Cité Internationale, and the Part-Dieu railway station lies a few kilometres to the south. As a Marriott property, the hotel follows an international business-hotel format, with an emphasis on conference and congress travel, and it is popular during events at the adjoining Centre de Congrès. Room categories include Standard Double, Superior, Family Room and Suite, with air conditioning and wifi listed among the amenities, and breakfast is available on site. Dining options within the Cité Internationale include casual restaurants and brasseries along the quay, while the more traditional Lyonnais bouchons are a taxi or tram ride away in Vieux Lyon and the Presqu'île. No spa or pool is listed in the available information. The service character is business-oriented, with a reception experienced in hosting delegates and corporate travellers, and families also use the hotel for its proximity to the park. Rates are typically about €160 to €380 per night depending on season, room category and conference calendars, and prices rise during the Fête des Lumières and major congress dates.
