The Lackawanna Hotel, where we spent the night, occupies
a grand old train station that used to bustle with passenger traffic but fell moribund when the city's star faded along with Pennsylvania coal and oil production.
Close to the Lille Flandre and Lille Europe
train stations as well as the
Grand Place,
Old Lille and the
Grand Palais, the ibis Styles Lille Centre Gares hotel is ideally located for business or leisure stays.
