Grand Hôtel Mercure Château Perrache

This hotel near the Perrache train station houses Lyon's most traditional rooms. The style is polarizing: You will either love or hate this monument to Art Nouveau. Admittedly, the old dame has seen better times. Originally built in 1906 and classified as a national monument, the hotel is one of the genuinely fine examples of Art Nouveau in Lyon. Renovated units contain contemporary furnishings, while the older units retain more of their original antique styling. Romantics and nostalgia buffs love the creaky furnishings, the antiques, and the winter garden. The restaurant, Les Belles Saisons, does more than just cater to the tired business traveler; its finely honed Continental and regional dishes are often innovative.
