“Great spot near the Louvre”

My wife and I had a great stay at Lumen. The staff could not have been more polite and helpful. The room was clean and comfortable though small by US standards. But, hey, when in Paris.... The surrounding area was very good - wonderful little bakeries, convenience stores, shopping, restaurants, the metro, and a Tourism office all within 100 yards. The Louvre is only 3 blocks away. We'd certainly return.

“Friendly Staff”

Friendly staff, nice clean room and minutes away from the Louvre. Recommended. But do not try walking from the Gare du nord, its further than it looks!

“Would definitely return.”

The hotel was in an excellent location. The staff were very helpful and friendly. would definitley stay here again. No hesitation in recommending this to anybody else.

“Nice Boutique Hotel”

If you want a large, upscale American hotel, this is not the place to stay. However, if you are looking for a smaller, quaint, modern decor boutique hotel, Lumen is a great choice. The location was wonderful (within walking distance to Louvre, Paris Opera House, Place de Concorde, Tulleries Garden, multiple metro stations, several cute cafes, and even Champs Elysee if you feel like getting some exercise). We really enjoyed the area we were in and had a great time wandering around the surrounding streets to get a feel for the city. The concierge and staff were very friendly and helpful and offered tour suggestions, etc. The only thing I would warn you about is that upon checking in we were under the impression that their continental breakfast every morning was free. We found that when we checked out, we were actually charged 20 euros a person for it. All in all Hotel Lumen was a great experience and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Paris.

“First class location”

A modern and comfortable hotel with all amenities. Superb location close to the Louvre and within walking distance to most major sights. The receptionist had good local knowledge and recommended good restaurants to eat in.

“Fantastic location”

This is a recently refurbished hotel and was a very pleasant surprise. Decor is very sophisticated and the rooms are very nicely finished with modern bathrooms and luxurious towels, gowns and toiletries. Reception staff speak good English and are very helpful. There is a new restaurant attached to the hotel which we didn't try but the menu looked really good (Italian cuisine). Breakfast was included and that was more than adequate. The best thing about this hotel is the location and is within walking distance of the Tuilleries Gardens, the Louvre and the Musee d'Orsay.

“Hotel Lumen Was Great!”

We just spent 10 days at the Hotel Lumen. The staff was wonderful, the room comfortable - 5th floor, lots of light, good bedding, great bathroom. Breakfast each morning was served in a beautiful setting and the quality and variety was very good. The location of the hotel was also excellent. One half block to Faubourg St. Honore, one and a half blocks to the Louvre and the Opera Garnier. I particularly enjoyed the sound of church bells from St. Roch next door. I would definitely recommend this hotel to other travelers and would stay here again. Staff were extremely helpful and thoughtful.

“Can't wait to stay at Hotel Lumen again!”

Beautiful and comfortable boutique hotel minutes away from the Louvre. Centrally located with the metro just two blocks away!

“Boutique hotel near the Louvre”

Turns out "boutique" means "small yet amusingly furnished." The hotel service was great, especially for a non-French speaker in Paris. It's very close to the Pyramides metro stop and was easy to find. Additionally, I was pleased to see that it was within one hundred meters of the Louvre. The single room was, of course, very small. I didn't check out a larger room, but the clear glass walls on the toilet area might be disturbing if I were having a romantic getaway. The furnishings themselves were great - I wish I could've stayed longer!

“Would stay again”

Great location. Only 2 minute walk to the Louvre and Rue du Rivoli. Within easy walking distance of main attractions including Notre Dame cathedral (lovely walk along the Seine). Hotel reception staff extremely helpful and spoke good english. Room small but exceptionally clean with large marble bathroom. Lovely touch on return to room in the evening- chocolates and a weather forecast for next day left on pillow.
