“Nice location but a run down hotel”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 February 2012

We decided to stay at the Lutetia due to it's great location but also because it was supposed to be one of the very good hotels in Paris. We were so disappointed. We got a room facing the court yard - which was ok - but the room was so cold. The toilet blocked and in addition there was no hot water for more than 15 hours. The plumber was called but only fixed the toilet - but still no hot water or heat in the room. Could have needed that on one of the coldest days in Paris ever. We complained - and as a compensation we got a suite facing the Eiffel Tower and Bon Marché. This was of course nice - but still we had one day which was bad - so only 1 out of 2 days was good and relaxing. The staff was friendly, the beds great and the location, too.

Sorry Lutetia - but my next sty in Paris will for sure not be at your hotel!

In generel the hotel is run down; the wall papers are dirty, the tiles at the bath rooms is filled with holes, the carpets old and well - in generel - it looks like a hotel that has had its time for sure - but now really needs a makeover!

“LEFT BANK GRAND MADAME !”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 January 2012

people found this review helpful

Mythical hotel,with original art deco character,a classic bar and a cigar lounge for smokers!It is THE Left Bank meeting point for Parisians and a cultural center, thanks to both,its history and its lounge jazz performances! Excellent Brasserie as well,helpful staff and AAA location.Some rooms certainly need improvement,but Iam sure that the management is already taking care of this.Thank you Lutetia for a great stay and I shall be back again very soon !

Room Tip: request an already renovated room ...

“11 out of 10”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 January 2012

person found this review helpful

Fabulous stay over new year, wonderful staff, great location, can't fault it, worth every penny, the best room we could have hoped for - a corner suite , balcony with eiffel view.
This was a Chrismas present from my american wife who booked through our local travel agent and managed to get a great deal. We were pampered from the minute we arrived, concierge bent over backwards to accomadate our every whim, even arranged the best table in the house at the 'lido' at short notice. I would highly recommend this hotel to any one wanting something special in Paris.

Room Tip: street view terrific

“A Queen of Art Deco Elegance”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 January 2012

We stayed in this elegant (if a bit aged) hotel for a week during our Paris trip. The staff at the front desk as well as The Brasserie were excellent and extremely accommodating. Our room was not ready upon arrival and after waiting for a bit we were offered a very comfortable room to use while we awaited our room to be prepared. When we were escorted to to th room by the front desk staff (thank you again Marina)! We were delighted to see that we were upgraded to a beautiful room with an outstanding view from our private balcony! The rooms are immaculate if a bit aged but the Concorde Hotel people who recently acquired ownership are renovating the entire hotel and what they have done is beautiful. The food is delicious in the restaurant, the staff helpful and the location of the hotel in the St. Germaine area is ideal to use as a base for your daily excursions in discovering the treasures of The City of Lights !

Room Tip: Ask for a room with a view of the Eiffel Tower when booking and check the condition of same before c...

“Beware - some very poor quality rooms”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 January 2012
5
people found this review helpful

Like other reviewers, we found that the art deco charm of the public areas of the Hotel Lutetia make it a special hotel. However, the rooms are of such variable quality that we feel we must warn other travellers. We were given a room which was of such poor quality - including a loose and dangerous plug fitting, peeling paper, no bedside lights, 3 missing bulbs in the bathroom - that we felt we were in 1 star hotel (but at 260e night it was very much a 4 star price). I think they are undergoing a gradual refurbishment - so if you want to enjoy this hotel please make sure you ask for a refurbished room and avoid the 3rd floor if you can!

Room Tip: Avoid the 3rd floor
