Recently we had the opportunity to experience the Lutetia, one of the best hotels in the French capital. Wether it is the beautiful SPA, extraordinary culinary experiences in Le Saint-Germain and Brasserie Lutetia or the miraculous drinks in Bar Josephine and Bar Artistide, the Lutetia offered multiple factors to make our stay unforgettable. The great location of the hotel, close to Bonne Marché, made it possible for us to easily get to all of the places-to-be in the heart of Paris.

The objective in terms of the hotel’s architecture is clear: enhance the historic parts (frescoes, old gilding, and mouldings) so that they integrate seamlessly with a new, contemporary environment. A patio will be created at the centre of the hotel, replacing the Ernest salon, allowing guests to fully enjoy this new outdoor haven of peace at the heart of the Capital. As for the suites, they will be more spacious and additional services will be included, such as a 700m2 spa also open to outside clients, equipped with a fitness room and swimming pool. The Lutetia Brasserie will be enlarged to create seating for 210 guests and the ceiling raised to double its original height with a mezzanine on the first floor to create a 21st Century Palace hotel. The current Borghèse salon will be transformed into a Jazz Club, while an adjacent library will host future literary and artistic events, always a point of pride for the hotel.

Georgi Akirov, Chairman of The Set Collection, describes The Lutetia “as a magnificent and much loved hotel uniquely situated on Paris’s fashionable Left Bank. An outstanding address for a modern grand hotel. The hotel’s rich heritage and its new contemporary spirit will, I am sure, make one of the most sought after destinations when we re-open in the autumn of 2017 with an enhanced role on the Parisian hotel and artistic scene”. In 2017, the Lutetia will once more welcome its Parisian, French and international clientele with exceptional hotel facilities and services. After the hotel’s architecture and renovation work, the Lutetia will join The Set Collection, a collection of luxury hotels including Hotel Café Royal in London and the Conservatorium in Amsterdam.
