Hotel De Lutece - Notre-Dame

Rooms and breakfast were good and location is nice.

Our stay was perfect until it was time to check out. We stayed as a group of 5 in 3 rooms and at the checkout were informed that our booking only provided breakfast for three people and now we owe additional 189 euros for breakfasts. We booked through booking with breakfast included and if you used booking you know there is no such thing as one breakfast for room of two. As we had to leave we agreed to pay and immediately wrote to booking support which after some back and forth about our stay forced hotel to return our money. This felt like a try to get some money out of tourists as we were informed only in the end of 5 day stay when we had to leave. Beware if you book the hotel with breakfast included.

Location was great and I was able to check in early. It was a little confusing to find and I even walked into the wrong hotel but everything ended up working out. Hotel was overall very nice. Clean bathroom, clean room. I went during the “bed bug outbreak” and can happily report there were no bed begs. Very close to the metro station, maybe a 3-5 minute walk. That metro line went to great spots; Eiffel Tower, Versailles, Norte dame etc. I ended walking a lot of places like the shopping district, pantheon and Notre Dame. They were 5-25 min walks but definitely walkable. Safe neighborhood, very quiet, lots of restaurants nearby, lots of little stores nearby. Definitely would stay here again!

There was construction outside my window but I really didn’t mind it. It was during the day, when I wasn’t in my room. It’s probably finished by the time I’m writing this and nothing to really worry about.

Location and interior

I would stay in a street facing room if I spent more time during the day at the hotel as the interior rooms look into the building shaft and are a bit dark

My mother and I stayed at Hôtel L de Lutèce for 2 nights in late September and it was such a special, perfect, memorable stay. The staff were very friendly and incredibly hospitable. We had a lovely view onto the charming street, and everything felt new and well-maintained. The room was very comfortable, clean and the design was well thought through. It was the most spacious Parisienne hotel room i've stayed in, also with a large bathroom - felt like a real luxury in comparison to the 4 x other hotels I've stayed at in Paris. Definitely my new favourite hotel in Paris, and ideally located in my favourite part of the city too (Ile Saint-Louis - peaceful, not over run with tourists and at the doorstep, everything you might need for a quiet slow-paced stay where you can pretend you are a local)

Hotel L de Lutece is a gem of a hotel located on the island next to Notre Dame Catherdral on the Seine river in Arr 4. Beautifully renovated (2023) in a 17th century building - the 4 star hotel offers great hospitality, a good selection for breakfast, and the treat of afternoon tea and cake. The rooms are very comfortable and clean. This hotel is within walking distance of a metro station. It has a good selection of restaurants, retail shops and Paris landmarks all nearby. We would definitely stay here again when visiting Paris.

Our water carafe in our room was not filled on one day of our stay.

The room was comfortable and newly and tastefully decorated. It was also super clean. Bathroom was a reasonable size. The communal areas were also good and decor was excellent. Space is always at a premium in Paris but in this hotel the space has been used wisely. Delightful location on the relatively quiet, unspoiled île saint Louis - almost a village atmosphere but so close to much of what one would want to visit and to the metro. Also pretty easy to get to both Gare du Nord and Gare de Lyon. Most staff were charming and welcoming.

Not cheap - what is in Paris? I would have preferred a walk-in shower to shower over the bath which was rather slippery and no hand rail to hang onto. One receptionist seemed ill-suited to her job. She spoke very quietly and wore a mask which made communication difficult.

The hotel is located in the heart of Paris, on the Seine, just steps away from Notre-Dame, enjoying an exceptional position. I booked two rooms, one of which was a bit small, but both were stylishly furnished, comfortable, clean, and well soundproofed. Breakfast is prepared on the spot with fresh products, making the experience even more enjoyable. The staff is extremely kind, a detail that I particularly appreciated.

Location was perfect. Could not be better. Room was clean and well designed and equipped.

The breakfast was included and made to order, which is nice but was incredible slow. On our second day, the breakfast chef was hungover (the whole staff knew and discussed this) and he really screwed up our order. Also: The coffee at the hotel is just terrible. Terrible.

Situation is very good if you travel with light luggage. The hotel is in an old buildingnicely adapted. Room was relatively large (for Paris standards). Tee and cakeat the reception.

The lift was out of service during the whole stay...Breakfast is good with fresh products but the tiny kitchen and only one person working on it causes long delays at peak times

The location is so perfect! Metro stops easily available and the island is a quiet little “village” to comeback to after the bustle of the rest of Paris. Great restaurants. Room was comfortable - bed wonderfully so. We would definitely come back
