Offering an Experience in Lyon: Our Gift Ideas for Mother’s Day and Beyond
What if this year, you gave much more than just a gift?
At InterContinental Lyon – Hotel Dieu, we believe the most meaningful gestures are those that are experienced, shared, and transformed into lasting memories.
To celebrate the month of May and Mother’s Day, discover a selection of experiences designed to surprise, delight, and bring people together.
Mother’s Day: Find the Gift That Truly Reflects Her
Every mother is unique and her gift should be too.
To help guide your choice, we have created a personalised gift guide: a simple and intuitive journey that leads you to the ideal experience based on her personality and desires.
A delicate afternoon tea, a gourmet lunch, a stay in the heart of Lyon, or a wine-tasting workshop… there is an experience for every kind of mother.
An Exclusive Experience on 31 May 2026
To celebrate Mother’s Day, our restaurant Epona invites you to enjoy an exceptional moment centred around an €80 buffet, thoughtfully designed as a true sensory experience.
Seasonal produce, indulgent creations and an elegant atmosphere ; every detail has been carefully considered to make this day a treasured memory.
To complement the occasion, a bouquet-making workshop in collaboration with Lyon-based florist Amarylice will add a creative touch to the experience, giving each guest the opportunity to craft a unique floral arrangement, a lasting expression of the day.
