After the Collège Hôtel du Vieux-Lyon, Jean-Luc Mathias, of the Cour des Loges and a passionate lover of second-hand shops threw himself into a new hotel adventure. A new « Collège » perched on Mont Cindre, one of the highest points of the Monts d'Or, offers a spectacular view of the whole city of Lyon.

Contemporary design with a pretty, old-fashioned place revealed, for example, by the table in the seminar room, unearthed by the owner, which creates the look of a jewellery workshop piece. An indoor-outdoor pool, heedless of the seasons, with a modular transparent door and a panoramic terrace. 29 rooms of a monastic soberness, a quick wink at the hermit of Mont Cindre and, at the same time, an invitation to contemplation according to the motto of the hotel which is « to find oneself to be better ». Very zen with -- on the side of earthly pleasures -- a cuisine with original recipes and an open-air cafe to perpetuate the spirit of Sunday family dinners.
