Cour Des Loges

Location. The designer Cour Des Loges hotel is located in a cobbled lane in the centre of Lyon, France. The Saint Jean Cathedral is just 200 metres away, as is the Vieux Lyon Metro station.
Hotel Features. Set in a former Jesuit college, the Cour Des Loges hotel combines Renaissance- style architecture with contemporary decor. The hotel's glass-roofed courtyard houses hand-painted frescoes, modern artworks and lifts up to three towers. The hotel is a favourite with celebrities like Michael Jackson and Henry Kissinger.

The hotel's Les Loges restaurant serves innovative French fusion cuisine in a vaulted dining room with minimalist decor. The glass-roofed lobby bar serves coffees, teas and cocktails. Cigars and light refreshments are on offer at the Fumoir, which also has a small library. The late-night bar serves drinks in a Renaissance-style setting, with hand-painted frescoes, a vaulted ceiling and doors out onto the Rue du Boeuf.

The Jeu de Paume conference room can accommodate up to 150 people. It features 15th-century columns and views over the courtyard. There are six other conference rooms including the frescoed Salon Agapes, with its grand fireplace. High-speed internet connections are available (surcharge).

Guestrooms. The Cour Des Loges hotel's 62 climate-controlled guestrooms are decorated with antique furniture from local flea markets, and frescoes by Hervé Thibault. All rooms have parquet flooring and views of the courtyard or the Rue du Boeuf. Rooms feature satellite television, minibars and wireless Internet access (surcharge). The Phillippe Starck-designed bathrooms offer baths big enough for two.

Expert Tip. A network of secret underground tunnels, the Traboules, criss-cross beneath the streets of the Renaissance-quarter streets that surround the Cour Des Loges hotel.
