The Festive Season is coming

For 114 years, Lutetia Paris, one of the most emblematic and prestigious Parisian grand hotels, has witnessed countless moments of sharing and emotion that create the irreplaceable memories of its visitors.

This year, the Festive celebrations at Lutetia will once again be synonymous with joy, magic and wonder. The hotel’s teams have imagined a series of unique events and experiences that will delight all guests; with gourmet holiday menus, seasonal pastries, special treatments at the Akasha Spa, and exclusive shopping experiences, all will be able to celebrate the end of the year in their own way, entirely within the elegant setting and warm spirit for which the hotel is renowned for.

Festive Gourmet Experiences

Our restaurants will present an array of menus created with a selection of gourmet and seasonal products.

Throughout the month of December, Le Saint-Germain will be offering a festive Afternoon Tea created by Pastry Chef Nicolas Guercio, to be enjoyed under its spectacularly-colored glass ceiling, for a warm and gourmet interlude in the heart of winter.

For the festive season, the menus at Le Saint-Germain and Brasserie Lutetia feature a selection of festive meals, to be savoured in a festive musical atmosphere.

At nightfall, the Bar Joséphine, the beating heart of the Left Bank, invites guests to indulge in its vibrant and sophisticated atmosphere while enjoying cocktails by Chef Barman Angelo Forte. And on the evening of 31 December 2024, guests can enjoy a festive DJ set and hit the dance floor to ring in the New Year!
