Châtel-Guyon (Script error: No such module "IPA".; Template:Langx) is a commune in the Puy-de-Dôme department in Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes in central France.[2]

The name Châtel-Guyon comes from Castellum Guidonis, “Guy’s Castle”, after Guy II of Auvergne, the founder of the city.
Prior to June 2008 it was officially known as Châtelguyon,[3] the change in the official styling being an adoption of its colloquial spelling, as, for example, used by Guy de Maupassant in his 1884 short story, "Le tic".[4]
