La Tour Rose
Self-contained luxury; autonomous and design-forward. Each suite feels like the apartment of a well-traveled friend with very good taste. The concept is 'live like a local' — except the local has a Nespresso machine, a vapor fireplace, and champagne in the fridge.
Contact the hotel at least 48 hours before arrival to sort your access code and payment; don't show up and expect to sort it on the spot.
Why It Matters
Sits in a UNESCO World Heritage district in Vieux Lyon. Completely receptionist-free — keypad access, digital check-in, 24/7 app and phone concierge. Interior designer Nathalie Rives spent two years sourcing individual furniture, art, and textiles for each of the 14 suites, making every room a genuinely different stay. Breakfast (with fresh pain au chocolat) is delivered to your door each morning.
A former 16th-century private mansion in the heart of Vieux Lyon, La Tour Rose is operated by MiHotel as a fully digital, reception-free suite hotel. Spread across six 18th-century apartment buildings, its 14 individually designed suites are each a distinct world — Art Deco, 1950s modernist, ethnic-chic, or exotic tropical — all executed with serious interior design chops and Pierre Frey and Dedar fabrics. You get a keycode by email, let yourself in, and that's it. No lobby, no front desk, no small talk.
Where You'll Stay
13 room types available
Suite Alba
The romantic option of the collection. A period portrait hangs above the fireplace, a four-poster bed anchors the room, and linen plays a central role in softening the warm tones. A chandelier completes the picture. Think French provincial nobility, lightly modernised.
30 sqm
Suite Amarante
Cosy and eclectic with a 1970s sensibility. Pink and vermilion shades run through the room, repeated in rounded shapes — the headboard, shelves, armchairs, and bathtub all echo the same curves. Comes with a bathtub as well as a shower.
King · 30 sqmSuite Ambre
A 1950s-inspired suite with a direct view of La Tour Rose's inner courtyard. Neutral tones create warmth, while designer pieces — a Roger Capron ceramic coffee table in the living room and a Norman Cherner chair — give it genuine collector credibility. Contemporary hangings and leopard-print accents add a dash of modernity.
35 sqm
Suite Aquaverde
A 1950s mezzanine suite with a Le Corbusier ambiance. Blue-green dominates the space, structured with touches of black. Curtains are made of linen canvas embroidered with a non-figurative motif evoking brushstrokes. More intellectual than most suites here — a good pick for design purists.
40 sqmSuite Bianca
The only suite that sleeps four — a large Art Deco duplex with two separate bedrooms. Floral motifs are very present throughout, as befits the Art Deco tradition, visible in the ornate headboards of both bedrooms. Also features two rain showers. A strong choice for families or two couples travelling together.
Two separate bedrooms · 50 sqm
Suite Ebène
The smallest and most cocoon-like suite in the collection, dressed in an ethnic-chic aesthetic inspired by interior designer Madeleine Castaing. An impressive leopard rug anchors the room, African-inspired motifs cover one wall, and closet doors feature geometric shapes in relief. Compact but genuinely immersive.
27 sqm
Suite Executive Cobalt
A newer addition to the Tour Rose suite roster. Living area with flat-screen TV, premium bedding, minibar, in-room safe, and blackout drapes. Named Cobalt for the dominant blue tone that runs through its contemporary design.
Suite Luxe Colletore
The showpiece of the collection, and arguably the best suite in the building. Situated under the roof with a view of both the inner courtyard and Fourvière Basilica. An elegant glass skylight separates the entrance from the bathroom and floods the space with reflected light. The palette is taupe, black, and grey — restrained but dramatic. Comes with both bathtub and shower.
50 sqmSuite Ocre
Directly inspired by the 1960s and '70s. Colour tones run from mustard yellow to terracotta, with raw materials, vegetal notes, and marsala linen that give the space real character. Interior designer Nathalie Rives drew on Le Corbusier's aesthetic philosophy here — functional beauty, liberated space.
30 sqm
Suite Palazzo
A Venetian-palace mood with burgundy, ochre, and almond tones. The ostrich feather lamp beside the bed is the kind of detail that makes you stop and stare. The private terrace looks onto the inner courtyard, making it one of the best options for guests wanting outdoor space without going all the way to La Maison Rose.
40 sqmSuite Palma
An exotic escape with views of the secret gardens of La Tour Rose. Large suspension lamps hang above the bed, and behind the headboard, giant palm tree wallpaper creates an immersive tropical atmosphere. The bathtub and shower add to what is a well-rounded suite.
30 sqmSuite Terracotta
A duplex suite with a contemporary, structured spirit. Warm tones run from red to brown with plum accents, and the living room's turquoise velvet armchairs create a striking contrast. Mural frescoes and a dramatic central suspension add graphic punch. The duplex format works well for guests wanting to feel more like they have an apartment.
35 sqm
Suite Volatili
A duplex suite drawing on 1930s and 1970s references simultaneously. Monkey-motif wallpaper and a bamboo banister set the tone — warm and luminous, with tones ranging from green to blue to yellow. Playful compared to some of the more austere suites in the collection.
