"A wonderful find - thank you so much!!"

We found everything quite exceptional at Serotel Lutece. From welcoming, friendly and helpful staff to a lovely breakfast, quiet room with good shower, lovely big towels and a/c that even worked! Location very good. Will definitely come back again. Glyn and Tamara Lovell.

"Great hotel. Well worth the money"

I have been to Paris 8 times and although the location is not as central as I have stayed before, it is the best value for money as the bed and pillows were extremely comfortable, the decor was modern and tasteful, the staff were all very pleasant and helpful and the price included breakfast!

"Comfortable hotel in a great location."

Clean and comfortable hotel in a tremendous location, close to Luxembourg gardens and the Rue Mouffetarde area with its charming village atmosphere. The staff were polite and helpful and breakfast was good. The only drawback was that our room was tiny; no drawer space at all, and we could not stand upright in the shower.

"Recommend highly. Clean rooms, friendly and helpful staff "

Excellent service for our evening arrival. Thank you ! Helpful and friendly staff. Not quite sure why it wasn`t possible to order a taxi for an early Eiffel Tower visit, but otherwise staff couldnt have been more helpful. 30 minutes walk to Bateaubus on the Seine - so really well located for anyone happy to walk a bit. Metro nearby ( we didn`t use). Rooms very clean, and good breakfast too. Some might find front rooms noisy, but back rooms are quiet (we had both). Well allocated rooms for our family party - two rooms next door to each other with external locking door. Would recommend this hotel highly.

"Excellent value for money."

Hotel very comfortable, staff very helpful and an ideal position for exploring Paris as the No21 and 27 bus stops are just outside hotel. A Paris Pass is recommended. A 5-10 walk to very good restaurants in Rue Mouffetard and where there are good food shops. Great atmosphere all around. It was unfortunate the fire alarm went off at 1am in the middle of the week due to a guest smoking in bedroom! Breakfast on the whole good though some mornings there was a shortage of certain things, it depended on who was on duty. Boiled eggs only twice....coffee strength varied and fruit salad varied from fresh to tinned but my son and I would thoroughy recommend staying at this hotel.

"Don`t stay here in warm weather, otherwise nice."

My husband and I were in Paris in early May 2012 for four days. The Serotel Lutece advertised air conditioning, but our room was very warm. Unfortunately, the room was on the front of the hotel and we could not leave our window open at night due to extreme traffic noise and a very bright security light on the building across the street. For that reason, I think the hotel was overpriced. On the other hand, the room and other areas of the hotel are nicely furnished. The continental breakfast was delicious. I believe a more complete meal can be had in the moning for an additional charge, but we did not need more. Most of the staff was cooperative and tried to be helpful. The route from the metro to the hotel as described by their website is all uphill and strenuous. Consider using the bus system instead.

Room rather small, considering the price. Breakfast initially rather chaotic, but improved as time passed. Staff very friendly and extremely helpful, especially when my wallet was stolen.

"A good hotel at a reasonable price."

Though the rooms are small the hotel is well maintained and offers a good continental breakfast. There are plenty of places to eat nearby and, if you are walking, it is about half an hour to the Louvre and other sights near the river

"Comfortable, clean and friendly. Better than some three star hotels we have experienced in Paris."

Room unduly small and rather cramped. No chest of drawers and wardrobe too small. Shower booth much too small - impossible to wash without knocking control lever, which sticks out, instantly changing flow and/or temperature. Hooks needed in bathroom for towels in use - plenty of room on wall. Continental breakfast a bit mean in choice, though coffee better than average. No eggcups, even when asked for. New, faster toaster needed. Where will all the guests eat when the top three floors are back in use again? Conscierge and room service excellent. We had to ask for heating to be put on again, due to unseasonably cold weather.

"Lovely surprise and wonderful area"

I will definitely stay at the Serotel Lutece again. I did not expect such a nice hotel - well run but with an intimacy usually lacking these days. Breakfast was the best I have encountered on the usual `Continental ` basis. The area suited me down to the ground being a person who loves to explore and metro transport although a little daunting at first (I was on my own) was then easily understood and I was away. Absolutely loved my visit, thank you.

"The situation is peaceful and convenient. Directions there, however, are poor,"

The hotel was clean and comfortable and staff worked hard to accommodate requirements. Front of house staff, however, were rather unfriendly and cold. It was surprising to be asked for 30 Euros on arrival in case we used the mini-bar, particularly as we had fully paid for the holiday in advance. Also, the garden was a rubbish tip and it was not possible to sit in it despite it being a feature in their description.

"Clean, quiet and helpful"

This was booked at the leat moment and we were more than pleased with our stay. The rooms were spotlessly clean, the hotel was quiet, staff helpful and the breakfast just what we needed. I can recommend it.

"Great location,would be happy to use again"

We found the staff very helpful,the standard of cleanliness very good and room decor very pleasing to the eye,breakfast was fine with good coffee,set us up well for all the walking later .We loved the relaxed feel of the Latin quarter after the bustle of the centre.

We had a very good two nights here. The rooms were on the small side - but then, who wants to spend their time in a hotel room? The staff were unfailingly pleasant and helpful. The rooms were extremely clean and very quiet at night. The area has loads of restaurants nearby and is reasonably close to the metro. It is a sort of university/bourgeois/tourist/villagy mix. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Room Small but comfortable, but perfect for a short 3-4 day stay, Staff very friendly and helpful, breakfast excellent, the area is great, area great if you love the Latin quarter as we do. Excellent for both character and the Restaurants and a little less costly than in the centre of Paris.It is also very easy and cheap to visit the main attractions by Metro 5 mins. down the road from the Hotel. our age group 65 -70+

"Brilliant Hotel for Paris "

Having stayed in my fair share of budget hotels in Paris - this was a little gem. As most know - in Paris particularly, most of the time you will pay a fortune to get something equivilant to Grandma`s run down pension containing matchbox sized un-soundproofed dodgy rooms. This is not the case with this hotel. it is worth every one of its 3***`s. Just 5mins from a metro it was brilliant - there is even a quaint little bar next door. The breakfast was fantastic as was the service, amenities, facilities and security. I would recommend it again and again
