Perouges, France
Hostellerie de Pérouges
Set within the medieval walled village of Pérouges, northeast of Lyon, the Hostellerie de Pérouges occupies a 15th-century auberge that functions as both hotel and restaurant. The kitchen draws on Bresse and Dombes regional traditions, placing it firmly in the Ain department's deep larder of poultry, freshwater fish, and cream-rich sauces. For travellers pairing a Lyon trip with a village excursion, it is the defining address in a town that sees few competitors.
