One of the oldest and most romantic spots in all of Paris is the picturesque Ile Saint Louis, a tiny island in the middle of the Seine. Just entering the enchanting lobby of this 17th century, country-style, 23-room hotel, is like stepping back in time. The stone fireplace, wood paneled walls, and terracotta… more floor covered in Persian rugs exude the warm feeling of an informal estate. The smallish rooms are somewhat Spartan, with a very few antiques here and there, but it’s all quite tastefully decorated, with good, full bathrooms. Rooms 661 and 662, located on the top floor beneath the mansard roof, are the property’s best units because they are the largest and the brightest respectively. If it’s booked up – as the Lutece often is in high season – try their other hotel just up the street, the equally charming Deux-Iles.

This was our first visit to Paris, and after a very hectic day of travel we arrived at the Hotel De Lutece. I had my concerns after reading some reviews on this website, but we were thrilled with the hotel. Arriving in the lobby was like stepping... more
I have been reading reviews on this website and realized that the two hotels Lutece have been combined in to one site. The hotel on the Isle de cite is the non=Best Western Lutece and if one reads the reviews carefully it is obvious that the Best... more
We spent four days at the Lutece in a clean, decent-sized room with a bathroom that was large by Paris standards. The location speaks for itself, on a historic island that is itself a tourist attraction. The staff was friendly and efficient, even... more
The location is perfect, the building is old and beautiful Paris with antique furniture in the reception area. The staff were courteous and helpful. We had a great 4 night stay. The room was a little small, but had a large modern bathroom. We were... more
