One of Lyon's most historic buildings, with 800 years of history, the former Hôtel-Dieu hospital is being renovated under the supervision of Jean-Philippe Nuel, a world-leading designer of luxury hotels. He successfully blends grandness and intimacy, on both a human and monumental scale, with the beautiful spaces of this seventeenth-century building. The eighteenth-century architect Soufflot placed innovation at the heart of his approach, which is a source of creative inspiration for the Hôtel-Dieu in its new role.

Chef Mathieu Charrois offers a daily lunchtime menu at the Epona restaurant, featuring a set menu that varies according to his inspiration, seasonal availability, and the weather! With Epona, you can try something new every day.

The Chef and his team also offer two new specials:
- Epona Côté Jardin: As soon as spring arrives, Epona takes over its exceptional terrace in the historic Saint-Louis courtyard of the Grand Hôtel-Dieu for peaceful meals.
- Epona Côté Montagne: In winter, a cozy chalet is located in the Saint-Louis courtyard of the Epona restaurant. Chef Mathieu Charrois and Pastry Chef Vincent Thomassin offer delicious winter flavors for lunch and dinner with dishes such as traditional Alpine fondue, half-wheel raclette, farmhouse tartiflette on country bread accompanied by the best regional charcuterie, and Champsaur blueberry tart.

Every day from 4 p.m., the Pastry Chef also offers a sweet and gourmet break to share, consisting of tarts, pastries, cookies and even a delicious hot chocolate bar.
