Hôtel Lutetia is a luxurious hotel located in Paris's historic Left Bank in the beautiful Saint-Germain-des-Prés neighborhood. It opened in 1910 and has recently undergone a four-year restoration by The Set Hotel group to modernize it without losing its historic charm.
The number of bedrooms was slashed during the renovation to create more space. The rooms have been elegantly designed with thoughtful touches such as Hermès pillowcases and coffee table books — some suites designed to pay homage to the hotel's artistic past. In the past, this place hosted famous guests such as Matisse, Picasso, James Joyce, and Serge Gainsbourg.
Hôtel Lutétia & Spa has six restaurants and bars. If you don't have time to check all of them, choose Brasserie Lutetia, it has a menu that combines traditional brasserie classics with the touch of executive Michelin-starred chef Patrick Charvet. Meanwhile, Bar Josephine is a popular option even for locals to spend a Friday night. It is characterized by sophisticated décor, restored fresco paintings, and Art Deco windows. The bar also hosts live jazz and folk nights.
Those not looking for socializing and cocktails might be glad that the hotel's Akasha Spa has many treatments, from body contouring to swimming lessons for children.
