Best for

Choose Lutetia if Saint-Germain's galleries, literary cafés and Le Bon Marché will shape your days, rather than a trip centred on Right Bank shopping.

What makes it special

Suites created with filmmakers, actors and Saint-Germain antique dealers bring the Left Bank's creative world into Lutetia's interiors for design-minded guests.

Room to consider

For private rooftop evenings, choose a penthouse with a 74-square-meter terrace reached by marble stairs, placing Paris views above your living spaces.

Insider tip

Take afternoon tea beneath Fabrice Hyber's painted glass canopy at Le Saint-Germain, turning a pastry tasting into time with contemporary art.

Mandarin Oriental Lutetia, Paris

Mandarin Oriental Lutetia, Paris is a Left Bank address for travelers who would rather start the day near Le Bon Marché than on Avenue Montaigne. The Palace hotel stands at 45 Boulevard Raspail, where it meets Rue de Sèvres in Saint-Germain-des-Prés. Its history is visible in the public rooms, but the location is just as good a reason to stay: you can spend a day in the neighborhood and come back for a swim or a drink beneath the frescoes at Bar Joséphine.

The main reason to choose the Lutetia is its geography. Saint-Germain's bookshops, galleries and historic cafés give the area a different rhythm from the Golden Triangle. Le Bon Marché is close by, and the Luxembourg Gardens and Musée d'Orsay offer two very different ways to spend an afternoon. There is enough nearby to leave part of the day unplanned, especially if the pleasure of the trip is getting to know a neighborhood rather than working through a list of sights.

If most of your dinners and shopping plans take you to the Champs-Élysées or Avenue George V, a Right Bank address may be simpler. The Lutetia makes more sense when the streets you want to explore are already outside the door.

The hotel opened in 1910, founded by the Boucicaut family behind Le Bon Marché. Art Nouveau and Art Deco details help explain why the building feels so much a part of Saint-Germain. The hotel's history also belongs to the writers and artists who passed through it. Ernest Hemingway and Joséphine Baker were among them, and Baker's connection remains visible in the bar that bears her name.

Architect Jean-Michel Wilmotte led the restoration before the hotel reopened in 2018. Mandarin Oriental took over management in April 2025, giving the former Hôtel Lutetia its current name. It is a separate property from Mandarin Oriental's hotel on Rue Saint-Honoré; the Lutetia's own history and Left Bank setting remain central to the stay.

The choice of category matters here. A room can make a good base if most of the day will be spent out in Paris. If the room is part of the occasion, the Eiffel Suite pairs a view of the tower with a Carrara marble bathroom and a book collection that nods to the district's literary history. Compare the named categories rather than assuming that every room or suite has the same outlook.

Some of the signature suites tell a more personal story, including collaborations with Isabelle Huppert and Francis Ford Coppola. The Two-Bedroom Presidential Suite was created with the Carré Rive Gauche association of art dealers and galleries. It is worth considering if you prefer the feel of a Paris residence and want a separate place to sit together. For a longer stay, that extra living space may matter more than the view.

Brasserie Lutetia gives the hotel a point of contact with the neighborhood. At the corner of Boulevard Raspail and Rue de Sèvres, it serves French brasserie classics in a setting that reflects the building's Art Deco history. It is the natural choice for a meal that feels connected to the address, rather than simply a convenient dinner downstairs.

Le Saint-Germain has the feel of a salon, with a painted glass canopy by Fabrice Hyber. At Bar Joséphine, historic frescoes give the room as much character as the cocktails. Bar Aristide is the more intimate option, with a speakeasy setting. The difference between the rooms makes it easy to pick a venue for the evening you have in mind.

Formerly known as Akasha Spa, the same wellness facility is now presented by the hotel as The Spa at Mandarin Oriental Lutetia. The 700-square-meter space includes a 17-meter indoor pool, a hammam, a sauna and treatment rooms, alongside fitness facilities. The pool is a practical reason to choose the hotel if swimming is part of your routine, rather than something you only make time for on a resort stay.

There is a particular convenience to returning from a museum or a long afternoon on foot and being able to swim without leaving the building. You can make use of the spa without setting aside an entire day for it.

Compare the Lutetia with the Paris palace hotels around Avenue Montaigne or Avenue George V by looking first at where you expect to spend your time. Those addresses put couture and the Golden Triangle close at hand. The Lutetia puts Saint-Germain and Le Bon Marché at the center of the trip. For a repeat visitor who has already spent time on the Right Bank, the change of base can make familiar Paris feel different without having to plan a different kind of holiday.

The hotel lists connecting and family rooms, useful options if you want children close by without sharing one room. A larger suite is worth comparing when you need a living area as well as sleeping space. The Luxembourg Gardens give families a reason to leave time between museum visits, and the neighborhood makes it easy to build a day around a few nearby stops. If swimming is part of the plan, check the hotel's pool access rules for children when choosing where to stay.

For couples, the address lends itself to a slower itinerary: an afternoon at the Musée d'Orsay, time back at the hotel, then a drink at Bar Joséphine. On a longer stay, having the brasserie and spa in the same building makes a quieter day as easy to plan as one spent out in the city.

Salon Cristal and the hotel's other event spaces bring the character of the building to weddings, private dinners and celebrations. The appeal is the setting itself. For a gathering meant to feel rooted in Paris, the Saint-Germain address and the hotel's history already give guests a sense of where they are. The room can carry much of the occasion without elaborate staging.

Book Mandarin Oriental Lutetia, Paris when Saint-Germain is where you want to wake up, not simply a district you plan to visit once. The combination of a historic Palace hotel, a brasserie with a neighborhood identity and a pool you can use as part of an ordinary city day gives the address a purpose beyond its architecture. For an itinerary centered on Right Bank appointments or shopping, put proximity first. For galleries, cafés and time on the Left Bank, the Lutetia puts the right Paris on your doorstep.
