Mandarin Oriental Lutetia, Paris

The location is perfect, and the building itself is beautiful—immaculately maintained and exquisitely decorated for the holidays. The team went out of their way to make us feel welcome and to acquaint us with the property and its many features. Our room, the view, and the personalized amenities were spectacular, and the food and service were excellent throughout our stay.

Great hotel and location. We were welcomed by Pierre at the front desk who facilitated our check-in process. We were giving a complementary upgrade which was a nice touch as we are celebrating our wedding anniversary. they even placed rose pedals on our bed and in bath …classy and nice romantic touch ! it is located in great neighborhood in 6th district and is close to Le Bon Marche for shopping. The building is historic and beautiful with great art deco touches and beautiful original artwork especially seen in Bar Joséphine. . The original Romanesque frescoes in Bar Josephine are truly remarkable and worth a visit. The public spaces are amazing and one needs to appreciate them . . . For example there is a wonderful first floor library which is an excellent tranquil respite from all the hustle and bustle of a metropolitan city like Paris. We used it after having a late night drink at Bar Joséphine and perused their wonderful diverse book collection! Concierge also was helpful giving us recommendations for off beaten path activities/excursions and we ultimately went to see photography art exhibition at Musee Maillol of Robert Doisneau We saw most iconic shots by the great Robert Doisneau, the amazing French photographer who captured moments and elevated snapshots of French citizens especially French children and is well known for the iconic photograph titled “The Kiss at the Hotel de Ville” We didn’t use their spa, gym or pool but went by to check out and looked enticing. Breakfast was included in our rate and was at great restaurant with buffet options and seats outside overlooking busy Parisian street. we sat outside to take in a typical Parisian Monday morning. First time staying in this neighborhood and hotel and won’t be last as had wonderful stay !!!

Our recent stay at this property was nothing short of spectacular. From the moment we arrived, the service was outstanding, and the attention to detail truly set this hotel apart from others in the area. The rooms were spacious, well appointed and had excellent views of the surrounding neighborhood. Make sure to check out the basement swimming and incredible fitness center.
