InterContinental Lyon - Hotel Dieu

Rialto Score 9+

An InterContinental hotel. Rialto is a IHG Destined agency and can provide VIP access and offers.

Guests at the 144-room InterContinental Lyon – Hotel Dieu do more than simply visit a UNESCO World Heritage site – they stay in one. The emblematic 18th-century building, set along the banks of the Rhône, has been painstakingly restored and reimagined with a contemporary flair; original stone flooring and plaster walls are softened by custom silk prints by Hermes and screen panels, a tribute to the city’s former silk trade. Epona restaurant adds another feather to Lyon’s foodie-haven cap.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does booking through Rialto cost more than booking with the hotel?

No - VIP rates under IHG Destined always meet or beat hotel's public, flexible rate, and provide valuable amenities and possible upgrades. Rialto also provides the hotel's non-VIP and corporate rates, so you can compare with full transparency.

What is the value of the VIP benefits?

Daily breakfast for two plus the $50-100 hotel credit come with every stay at this hotel - adding $100-200/day in value. A room upgrade could also be worth a substantial amount, in addition to early check-in / late check-out benefits when available.

Do I earn IHG One Rewards points and keep my elite benefits? Is this considered a direct booking or a third-party booking?

Yes. The booking is a direct reservation with the hotel, so it earns IHG One Rewards points and elite-night credit, and IHG One Rewards elite status benefits apply.

How does this compare to other programs, like through AMEX Fine Hotels & Resorts, or Chase Edit?

Using a hotel's own VIP program may provide higher upgrade priority, additional VIP benefits and promotional rate offers, and a direct relationship with the hotel for special requests. Rialto offers more VIP hotels than any credit card program. In addition, Chase Edit rates can be substantially more expensive as they rarely run promotions whereas AMEX rates are often comparable but do not offer programs such as Upgrade at Booking.

Can my AI assistant book this hotel?

Yes. Connect Rialto to Claude or ChatGPT and ask for rates. You finish the booking on a secure Rialto page. Card details are not sent through the AI chat, so either you would approve the final checkout step and reconfirm all the information, or if you authorize your agent with Computer-Use permissions, it can fill out the checkout form as well.
