In 1977, Lyon's highest tower the Pencil was built in the very heart of Part-Dieu. Today, the summit houses the Radisson Blu Hotel Lyon, making it Europe's highest hotel in Europe with spectacular views guaranteed. It is in the heart of Lyon¿s business district, only a short walk from the Part-Dieu train station, 30 minutes from Saint-Exupery international airport, near the famous Part-Dieu shopping centre and minutes away from Lyon's historic centre. Situated between the new Palais des Congres and the Halle Tony Garnier conference centres. Hostesses wait on the ground floor to welcome guests and show them to the private elevator, which will take them swiftly up to the 32nd floor to the main lobby which sits below an impressive glass pyramid roof above. The hotel¿s 245 guest rooms are located around a central atrium from the 33rd to 39th floor. They have been redecorated and feature all the facilities of an international class hotel. In addition, all rooms command breathtaking views over Lyon and the surrounding countryside. The hotel¿s panoramic and gastronomic "L'Arc en Ciel" restaurant and bar on the 32nd floor offers breathtaking views of the Rhone, the city, its monuments, the surrounding hills and French Alps beyond. Guests can also choose to dine in the ¿Bistrot de la Tour¿ brasserie, and after dinner guests can relax in ¿Le Ciel de Lyon¿, a bar that dominates the city from a height of 108m, and is the ideal place to begin or end the evening out, in a warm, English-style ambience with live piano and jazz. Guests will also receive free access to the Elixia fitness centre (offsite). When staying at this hotel guests will experience all the sights and sounds of Lyon in one place. Guests can watch the sun rise and set through their window and observe the hustle and bustle of busy Lyon in the peace and tranquillity of their own room.
