"Housed in a monumental former hospital on the Presqu’île where the Rhône and Saône meet, this 2019 rebirth transformed a centuries-old heritage site into a 144-room hotel and neighborhood hub with restaurants, boutiques and the Cité Internationale de la Gastronomie museum. Interiors by Jean-Philippe Nuel incorporate local history—silk accents nod to Lyon’s weaving past—while duplex suites feature enormous windows framing river views and public highlights include Le Dôme bar beneath the vaulted chapel ceilings and a signature Panthéon cocktail referencing the site’s architectural lineage." - Mary Winston Nicklin, Lindsey Tramuta
