Social events high above Lyon at Radisson Blu Hotel, Lyon
Our 11 rooms sit on the upper floors of the Part-Dieu Tower, with natural daylight by day and the city lit up at night. They take everything from a private dinner for a close group to a cocktail party for 300 guests, and they divide to suit.
Host celebrations of every kind
Radisson Blu Hotel, Lyon hosts private events and business gatherings of most kinds, from gala dinners and cocktail receptions to business dinners and family celebrations. Our rooms combine and divide, so the space follows the occasion rather than the other way around.
Three things are worth settling early, how many guests you expect, whether the evening is one main moment or a sequence of them, and the atmosphere you want. With those decided, our team can point you to the right room.
Choosing the right room for your event
Every room is indoors and reached by lift, with natural daylight through the day and panoramic views over Lyon, so the setting does a good deal of the work before any decoration goes up.
- For a seated gala dinner or a large reception, our Lumiere rooms open into a single space.
- For a mid-sized dinner with room to move, a pairing of two Lumiere rooms keeps things intimate without feeling tight.
- For a smaller celebration, our Nova space divides into separate rooms, and the Orion rooms suit a private dinner.
- For a mixed evening, hold drinks in one room and dine in another, so the night has a change of scene built in.
Catering for your event
Catering runs from coffee breaks laid out beside your room through to a full buffet lunch, and our kitchen also handles gala dinners and cocktail receptions for larger evenings. Group breakfasts are served at Celest Restaurant on the 32nd floor.
Things to confirm early:
- Dietary requirements across your guest list, so the kitchen can plan rather than improvise.
- Timing, particularly if speeches or a program sit between courses.
- How formal the meal should feel, from a seated dinner through to a standing reception.
- Whether drinks are served in the same room or somewhere separate before guests sit down.
