On April 21, 2026, the Grand Voyageur Le Club lounge TGV INOUI at Paris Gare de Lyon officially reopened after a complete renovation.
Located at the heart of the station, in the Galerie des fresques – connecting Halls 1 and 2 – the lounge spans a total area of 630 m2, up from 610 m2 previously thanks to a 20 m2 extension on the ground floor and a 4% increase in seating.
With around 400,000 travelers in 2025, it is accessible to Grand Voyageur Le Club members and eligible corporate clients, who wish to work or unwind before their journey.
To better meet its clientele’s expectations, the lounge is now organized around two distinct spaces.
The ground floor is dedicated to guests making short stops, under 15 minutes, and offers immediate access to all services.
Upstairs, a new layout of the spaces, paired with a higher-end range of services and amenities, enables guests to relax and work in a calm environment.
In the relaxation areas, work zones or the individual telephone booths, each visitor can enjoy the full range of services including free Wi-Fi, electrical and USB outlets, the news and entertainment portal, a selection of beverages, etc.

A Reduced Environmental Footprint
The renovation of this lounge took into account a number of ecological criteria, such as the use of responsible materials – the furniture and construction elements are sourced from the European Union, durable and recyclable.
Likewise, the historic joinery has been restored exactly as before, while incorporating optimized thermal standards.
Furthermore, an airlock helps prevent heat loss or gain depending on the season.
Among the other measures implemented: the broad use of sorted recycling bins, a selection of organic hot drinks sourced from fair trade, the option to use your own mug at the coffee machine, and the reduction of paper by offering on-site newspapers and digital press.
