"Ancien Hôtel Terminus, actuel ""Grand Hôtel Mercure Château Perrache""" stands in Lyon (Rhône), in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region of France. The building is listed as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: first quarter of the 20th century). Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.

Located steps from Lyon-Perrache railway station, this hotel built in the early 20th century still holds Art Nouveau interiors designed for a wealthy clientele arriving by train. Today operated as a Mercure hotel, it lets guests see an entrance hall and several salons decorated by noted artists of the period. The building also carries a darker history, having served as the headquarters of the Lyon Gestapo during the Occupation.
