Hôtel Lutetia is the only luxury hotel in Paris to sit on the Left Bank, far removed from the hustle of the 'Golden Triangle'. The hotel was first opened in 1910 and its location has a story of its own, intrinsically linked to the Bon Marché department store.
Originally opened as a pied-à-terre for the clientele of the Bon Marché department store, Hôtel Lutetia has always been a landmark of Saint-Germain-des-Prés... a place that has seen almost every layer of the history of 20th-century Paris pass by. Picasso and Matisse used to call it home, and Josephine Baker, who introduced the City of Light to the Jazz Age, was an habitué. The hotel is also one of the most beautiful in Paris, with a central salon under a colorful glass ceiling, and painstakingly recovered Romanesque frescoes at Bar Josephine.
