Nous avons été très chaleureusement accueillis à l’InterContinental de Lyon. Merci à la Maîtresse d’hôtel et à toute l’équipe pour leur professionnalisme, et une mention spéciale à Sacha pour son service attentionné, ses conseils avisés et l’atmosphère de bien-être qu’il a su créer à table. Le restaurant « Epona » est une véritable pépite : cuisine raffinée et généreuse, service impeccable… On comprend pourquoi Lyon est la capitale de la gastronomie. Nous recommandons vivement cet établissement, aussi bien pour l’hôtel que pour le restaurant. Di Vito Adrien

Ravis de cette super expérience chez Epona. La cuisine est juste exceptionnelle et le cadre très plaisant. Le seul bémol a été durant le service car notre bouteille de vin est arrivée tardivement…
