The Michelin Guide's review
This is where the Burgundy parliament used to meet. The gabled, Renaissance façade has a porch supported by columns. The door, decorated with garlands and trophies, is a copy (of the Sambin door, the original of which is in the Musée des Beaux Arts). Inside, in the Salle des Pas-Perdus, is a fine vaulted ceiling. The Gilded Chamber (Chambre Dorée) is home to the Appeal Court; its ceiling bears the coat of arms of Francis I. The small Saint-Esprit Chapel has a grill, yet again the work of Sambin.
