Guy Stener (11 February 1931 – 12 December 1967) was a French international rugby union player.

Born in Vichy, Stener attended Cusset secondary school and was a football goalkeeper in his youth. He took up rugby on the urging of his friend Guy Ligier, who became a famous racing driver.

Stener, a three–quarter, played rugby for the Paris Université Club while studying for a physiotherapy degree and was also involved with his local club RC Vichy. He was capped five times for France, with three appearances in the 1956 Five Nations, then a further two on their 1958 tour of South Africa. Towards the end of his career, Stener had a stint in England with Harlequins during a hospital placement.

In 1967, Stener died of a long illness aged 36.
