Hotel Lumen Paris Louvre

This was my wife's and my first trip to Paris, and we couldn't be happier with the hotel we chose. The location is perfect, within a stone's throw to the Louvre and Jardin des Tuileries. Metro stops nearby, lots of cafes and shopping, and, most importantly, clean and safe. The staff is so courteous and helpful, willing to do whatever it takes to ensure you have a wonderful stay. The room was small, but perfectly comfortable for two people. Clean and elegant and well-kept, the cleaning staff was also friendly and excellent at their job. My wife and I would definitely recommend this hotel, and would love to stay here again in the future.

What a great place to stay. When checking in I was asked if i required a tub. I said all i needed was a shower. The young woman checking me in smiled and said, "good, because I assigned our room with a designer shower in it." Wow, what a bathroom! Glass walls, huge black granite shower with both a rain forest showerhead at the very high ceiling and a hand held shower. Room was small but beautiful and perfect for me. Hotel staff was friendly, and very accommodating. A great experience.

The location is great, less that two blocks from the Louvre. The hotel is fine, but the rooms (even the Superior one I booked) are small. But we spent little time there, so it wasn't that much of a problem. The breakfast was good as was the restaurant. The staff was friendly and helpful.

Highly recommended! This centerally located hotel had a tres comfortable bed, great in-house resaurant (Oscars), and the staff could not have been nicer or more helpful. Air conditioning worked great -- as did the no-charge Wifi. Tub for soaking feet and towel warmer in bath were added bonus. About 1 block from Pyramides metro (follow the signs to the Tourist Information (TI) and it is just down the block). We easily got our Museum Passes at the TI (took less than 5 minutes). Also, hotel is about 2 blocks to the Louvre and Tulleries Gardens. There is also a place to book bus tours a block toward the Louvre. We had a wonderful visit and would definately stay there again.

My daughter and I just returned from a once in a lifetime trip to Paris. I booked througb Orbitz. We stayed at the Hotel Lumen. The hotel was amazing. It is just blocks from the Louve and many other sites. It is also a short walk to the metro which is easy access to any of the sites of Paris. The hotel staff gave us excellent advice on how to use the metro system, where to get souveneirs, and resturants to get the best food for the $. I would recommend bringing an electric outlet converter. Ours did not work so we could not charge iPod or iphone for internet. No hotel computer to use. Amazing continental breakfast with fresh pastries, fruit, cheeses, and fantastic coffee with steamed milk!

Very friendly staff and the location is excellent (walking distance to the two Cityrama offices for day tours). Very close to the Louvre.

Visited lesser known sights, did some serious people watching from sidewalk cafes, absorbed beaucoup atmosphere

The other reviews are pretty accurate. I would only say that the rooms are too dark as the lighting is inadequate and the desk is a bit small for both a laptop and a note pad and since there is no desklamp or overhead light, a bit difficult for the business traveler. Otherwise, clean, well located, quiet, great wifi, great staff, abundant toiletries, efficient air-conditioning.

Near the metro, easy walk to just about everything. Comfortable room and bed,small but cozy. Open bathroom concept which was fine for this solo traveler but for a couple? Staff was very helpful and spoke englsh.

Great location, lovely staff, great room. It's minutes from the Louvre, the Tuilleries, the Orangerie, Musee D'Orssay, Ile de la Cite. It's a great little place and highly recommended. Oh, a bit out of order, but easy access to the Metro.
