We couldn’t get internet in our room and the staff stayed there was nothing they could do. We lasted all of one hour in the room before we decided we could not stay and we couldn’t believe that Expedia would even host this place. The stairs were dangerously narrow and with no elevator plus a fourth floor room, carrying a 50 pound suitcase without any assistance from staff was even more harrowing. I am typically a grin and beat it especially when trying to save but even I couldn’t take this place. The manager stated no refunds and I still set that there was no way in good conscience that my family and I could stay. The room smelled of ruing and the tv was barely hanging on the wall. No one should stay at this place ever and Expedia should take it off their listings.

Room is what it is, not huge but for the price, a great place to rest your head at night. Comfy bed and the bathroom is newly renovated and so is a huge plus. Very friendly staff, I lost my key out and about and the staff just gave me a new one, no questions asked! Location is amazing, 2 minute walk (if that) for food/dinner and the same for the metro. Easy to get into to centre of Paris and easy to get back. I stayed on the 4th floor, no lift up but not too bad to get up and down. Overall, incredible value and amazing location, along with friendly staff and pretty nice room. Would 100% stay here again! :)

Biggest Lie Ever SOLD!

The nightmare of this place/stay is beyond words but I’m going to try my best to articulate to you how much of a hole this place iThe Pictures Are A Lie! Not in their wildest imagination does the hotel look like the advertised one. It is not the same hotel! Period. All the pictures of the reception and the rooms have a filter upon another filter of deception, needless to say it is a stretch of the reality.For the rest of the nightmare. After I check in, the guy hands me key and tells me I’m on the 5th floor through the door. When I open the door expecting an elevator, it’s acutely a staircase that is a steep fight of stairs. Side-note, I was extremely tired from my trip there and I didn’t want to complain so I tried my best to keep my composure. I made it up the 1st flight of stairs and could not go up with all my luggage and dropped it, so the guy at the desk ended up helping me, which was nice. But I’ve never in my life experienced a staircase so old, steep and windy, by the time I got to the top I was nauseous and dizzy. Not to mention when I arrived at the room I was so disappointed and outright disgusted and afraid for my safety and I couldn’t help but wonder about the integrity of the building, as the building felt as if it were leaning. When I went inside the room I felt like I was in a jail of another century. The bathroom smelled like rot, even worse actually, maybe death. The bed sank in the middle. Lastly, My partner got so ill from the allergy to God knows what(?)

We had a great stay at this hotel. Although it may seem far from the centre it’s actually a lovely walk but the metro is right on the doorstep so it’s very easy to get around. However, you don’t need to go far to find amazing restaurants, cafes, bars etc- plenty right next door to the hotel. The room itself was spectacular- very clean and felt safe. All in all I would highly recommend ☺️

My ratings for this hotel are compared to other small neighborhood tourist class hotels. My room was clean, nicely furnished, and recently renovated. I interacted with several hotel staff persons and they were all very nice, helpful, and spoke English.

My only critical comment concerns the lack of an elevator. There is a somewhat narrow spiral staircase on which I had to carry my luggage up to the 5th floor, although the staff did offer to have someone do it for me. However, navigating the staircase even without luggage is still a chore. The lights are also on a short timer so you have to manually turn on the lights when needed.

I would recommend the Luxelthe Hotel, but not if you have a physical mobility issue.

The actual facility is very diffident than shown in pic. It was in much worst conditions: mismatched toilet seats, stair way light would turn off after 3 to 5 min. Leaving you walking up completely in the dark when you are hauling your luggage up after 2 and a half floors. All the wood in the patio is dried and has not been painted for a very long time. Many rooms leak light and sounds through the door. The overall condition of the hotel was poor.

The location is nice, however, just one block away from the metro, and a lot of place to eat and walk around.

The manager was kind enough to allow us to cancel and refund for the rest of the stay.

The property was clean, the location is excellent. Metro is 1 block away Pigalle station. It good also if you enjoy walking. I walked to the Louvre about 30 minute walk. There are food places everywhere. All the staff at hotel were very helpful and I enjoyed my stay. The hotel is basic, there is no lift, narroiw winding staircase. I enjoyed the exercise. No phone in room, no fridge, etc... location makes up for the simplicity of room. There is TV with all French channels. Tiny bathroom, I managed fairly well though. If you are extremely heavy might be an issue. I am 5’10 270lbs. It was cramped. If you are bigger than that , get a larger room than the single or check dimension, I mention this because shower is narrow, I was barely able to turn around in shower, I managed. Again if you want luxury this is not the place to choose. There is no luxury at this property. If you want a clean, affordable, place to sleep that is quiet, although the Moulin Rouge is 2 blocks away. I would choose this hotel. The price maybe a little more than what you feel it is worth. But location was perfect. I would stay here again if I am on a budget.

A good place if you just need a bed for the night

A very basic room but exactly what we needed for a weekend in Paris where we just needed a place to sleep. The room was clean, bed was comfortable and bathroom was very nice. Like most hotels of this kind there is no lift, only stairs, but if you’re aware of this then it’s not an issue. My only slight issue was with the service when checking in and the lack of safe storage for our luggage before/after we checked in/out. Our bags were left on show at the reception desk all day and when we returned no one was sat there manning the desk which felt slightly unsafe. Apart from this, no complaints and we had a pleasant stay! Also a great location for us as we had a concert to go to at Le Trianon

Really great area close to station, friendly staff. Let us store our bags to roam city until check in. Room was a little smaller then our expectations for the room but was newly renovated. 5 flights of stairs were tough with bags. We were told was a non smoking property but person in room to us smoked regularly and it spread across entire floor. Overall I enjoyed my visit. Thanks

Luxel is a very simple budget friendly hotel, as a solo traveler I find this hotel to be perfect for what I need, a clean room with a shower and a table to plan my next adventure into the city or out of the city. It does not have the typical creature comforts like a lift (elevator), gym or spa’s- it is perfect though if you are always on the go, having a well tended room after long day of sight seeing and VERY close to two Metro stations (Pigalle and Abesses) , it is in the Monmartre-Sacre Coeur area and only a few blocks away from the Moulin rouge. It is close to many cafes and bistros, make a left when you get out of the hotel towards the Hill by St. Jean the Baptist church (La Relais Gascon serves a mean salad selection with their signature sliced potatos on top, and one of the best Bœuf Bourguignon I had in Paris) I like this place and catered to my needs - a clean place to rest and shower for my another day in Paris.

The Pigalle area caters mostly to adults which is the street below when you make a right upon exiting the hotel - not particularly kid friendly but if you make a left it is an entirely different feel as you’ll be going up the quaint Montmartre artist community (Mateo station Abesses just in front of the brick St. Jean church, there’s an AMAZING boulangerie
Also up there ( Le Grenier a pain) don’t miss trying both their regular and choclat croissant.

As with any travel no matter where your staying - always have the common sense in tow.

Enjoy!

Found 2 non flying bugs on the bed during my stay, i assume are bed bugs but I'm not a professional to say they are. This led me to get 2-3 hours of sleep during the stay, up all night looking to make sure no others popped up. Placed the do not disturb sign on the door after a market run, returned to the bed made by housekeeping and the do not disturb sign placed inside the room, some items placed on desk, after searching all over another was left under the bed. Restroom has paint chipping and horrible water flow from sink, walls are littered with bugs that have been killed on them, which could be easy to clean. I needed to print a tour document, but a specific employee wasn't there to open the room where the printer is located, so I had to walk around to multiple hotels until I found one willing to print my documents. Expect to get what you pay and watch out for the bugs.

Best in budget price bracket

I've been staying annually in Paris for over 10 years, and experienced quite a few hotels in this sort of price bracket, but this is the one I keep coming back to. It's not fancy but I've never found anything to complain about. I've stayed elsewhere and thought oh, should've gone to the Luxelthe instead, this one may be a few euros a night cheaper but it's nowhere near as pleasant. With only 5 rooms per floor and no lift you are almost guaranteed a nice quiet night, especially if your room is at the back and the room was clean, bright and comfortable. For me, that's all that really matters.

Hotel is in a great location

Hotel is in a great location, close to the metro station and within walking distance to lots of bars and restaurants in the Montmartre area. However there is no elevator and my room was on the 4th floor which made lugging up my luggage a struggle. My room was tiny and there was a weird sewage like smell that was really bad and I had to keep my window open in order to sleep.
Given this is a budget hotel I think I got what I paid for. Besides the smell the room was clean which is all I needed

Basic hotel close to the Pigalle Metro station

I was in Paris in mid-June when the daily temperature was above thirty degrees Celsius. Without airconditioning, a fan in my room, or even an ice machine in the hotel, the heat was unbearable. Had I come in the early spring or winter, my stay would have been more pleasant. I can't really blame the hotel for the extremely hot weather, but here are my reasons for giving Luxelthe such a low score. Firstly, they don't have a lift. I've stayed at other small hotels in Paris and they all have elevators. If you're staying on the 4th floor, just imagine carrying your luggage all the way up using the narrow staircase. Even walking up the stairs without any bags is such a hassle. Secondly, the bath towels they provided are worn out - they have the texture of old tea towels. Thirdly, the support for the showerhead in my room is broken. You have to hold the showerhead when bathing; otherwise, it pivots towards the wall because the holder/cradle is loose and can't be tightened. Lastly, the room reeks of sewer smell at night. There must be something wrong with the drain.

Would recommend

The hotel staff are very friendly and helpful. It is super close to the metro Pigalle-good for sightseeing. A nice neighbourhood. Only fall back is if you are a light sleeper you can hear floor creaks and water down the pipes but not enough to disturb you! Would recommend for solo budget travellers!

Decent hotel near the city of Paris

The hotel is just 2 min walk from Pigale Metro Station. Bus stop for Open Tour Hop On Hop Off bus also nearby. The hotel is small with small staircase but the room is quite clean, bathroom inside (which is hard to find in Paris except the more expensive ones), staff very nice. 24 hour reception. TV in the room but no kettle. The price is quite expensive but I guess that's Paris. Overall, nice stay for easy access to city of Paris.

Shocking treatment from cleaning help

I had the most shocking encounter in this hotel. I have asked if I could extend my stay till 1PM (just 1 extra hour), which was kindly agreed. However once I got back to my room just before 1PM, the door was open and the cleaning person was already in, having cleaned already half the room. I have purposely asked for later check out so I could re-arrange my personal things in my luggage and take a shower before my departure to airport. I was very unpleasantly surprised to find the cleaning person in my room and asked her to leave. The black cleaning woman started to shout at me and was not willing to leave.

I have called for help from the reception which came after very long time, unfortunately the older man seemed hopeless to explain to the cleaning help that she should respect privacy of paying client.

I travel all the time, but such a shocking treatment happened for the first time ever. The cleaning help is there to make the stay for clients comfortable but not miserable by considering herself above other staff in the hotel and completely disrespect the paying customer. Not a single time I heard \"sorry\" from either one of them. The older man on reception seemed terrified and hopeless in hands of this black woman.

Stay away from this hotel if you dont want to be treated like dirt.

Positives - central, close to the Metro and cheap. Negatives - tiny rooms that are dirty/poorly maintained, no lift (being on the 5th floor, this meant I repeatedly climbed 10 flights of steps) and dreadful servicing (on one occasion, a dirty/damp towel left in the shower was actually re-hung for me to use again). Location is pretty miserable too (the 'adult entertainment' zone) - if you're a guy travelling alone, be prepared to be pestered literally every few yards you walk.

A perfect little Parisian hotel

We booked this hotel mainly because of the affordable price. After reading some reviews about lack of lifts and air conditioning, the small rooms and the dodgy neighbourhood reputation I was worried about our stay. But it was incredible. The room was full of light! The bed was comfortable! The neighbourhood was absolutely charming! The staff were friendly, and when a problem came up with our flight out of Paris, they bent over backwards to help us. The metro stops were close. The Sacre Cour was just up the hill. We had an amazing time staying here and we recommend it to anyone who wants to stay in Montmartre.

Ok but not great

Hotel is really close to a Metro station which was great, but once inside the room looked great at first but then went into the bathroom. Although was clean the floor tiles were not secure and a bit unstable, there was pieces of paper stuck to the ceiling which I'm guessing is to cover up and mold. Then there was an issue that they only left a small amount of toilet paper (a already used role about 1/4 left), and two small shampoo packets. For two people sharing the room for one night this wasn't enough as wanted a shower after a long day of exploring before dinner and then one in the morning. We had to go to the local supermarket to purchase a cheap bottle as was easier than trying to speak to the hotel manager.

In the bedroom the window is a double doors which opens out on to the road, and since we were on the 1st floor meant that if we opened the curtains we were at eye level as people walked past! The curtains were on a rail that was so far away from the window that so much light got in from around the sides and we never felt completely private from the public.

Good bang for the buck but not for everyone.

If you want a clean, economy hotel right in the middle of Montmartre, this is the place for some of you. The room is tiny and clean and the bathroom updated. The small lobby and stairwell have probably not been updated for 50 years or more. The walls are paper thin and it can be VERY noisy but there was no street noise at night since it's on a side street. If you are a light sleeper, it could be a problem. It's walk up and no air conditioning. I requested a lower floor room when I booked and got it and the temps were plenty cool at night in September. Could be a problem. Very limited TV; no English stations. Located right at the Pigalle metro station and near all the tourist spots. Plenty of fabulous cafes all around. There is no help carrying your luggage up or down the steps so be prepared to do this. I am a female and was traveling along; did not feel uncomfortable at all.

Great value for the price

My room was on the fifth floor and I had a very heavy suitcase. There's no lift so it was hard work to climb all the way up. But when I got into the room, I nearly screamed with joy. There was a balcony with a little table and I could see the clear sky and the tip of the sacré coeur :) The room was basic but clean. And the hotel is closer to lovely grocery shops and brasseries at the heart of montante. Not a fancy hotel but it was excellent value for the price. I really enjoyed my stay!

This hotel had a fantastic location and an even better price. There aren't any frills like breakfast or a lift, but the rooms are clean, the beds are comfy, there's wifi, and a nice bathroom. It's location in Montmartre really can't be beat. We had a room on the street, and like other reviewers said it got a bit noisy with the windows open. However the windows were double paned and we had no problems with the windows shut (except you don't get to wake up to the bells of Sacre Coeur with the windows shut!)

Tip: If you stay here, Try the Indian Restaurant next door! We had a full lunch with an entree, rice, naan, and a glass of wine for 6.60 euro! I can't believe the value of that restaurant for the price, and it's so very convenient if you're staying at Luxelthe!

Don't let the lobby fool you, the rooms are nice

The lobby is small and a bit shabby but the rooms were clean with new, modern bathrooms. The staff was very friendly and helpful. In June the weather was warm and without air conditioning we opened the windows and slept comfortably. There was some street noise on Saturday night but some ear plugs and being tired from walking most of the day made it possible to sleep comfortably. There is a subway station and bus stop just a block away in Pigalle Square. Also on the square is a McDonalds (didn't eat there!) and a La Brioche Dorée with coffee and French sandwiches and salads. Overall, this hotel is a good value for those use to 2 and 3 star hotels while traveling in Europe.

I chose this hotel for the good ratings on here but I was disappointed. In the hotels defense it is only a 2 star hotel. The rooms are incredible small and there is no phone no fridge. I did not feel welcome at all when i arrived. He gave me key and said up the stairs to right. I woke up early one morning to go get breakfast and I was LOCKED IN! Apparently the hotel closes at 1am! I'm still not sure when that open beacuse at about 7 something a guy came stumbling out of a room with a key to open it for me. Maybe I watch to many scary movies but It was actually kind of a scary feeling to be locked in a sketchy hotel.
