The gentleman that checked us in when we arrived he was nice and helpful. Everyone else was RUDE. The hotel has a terrible smell of sewage. The room smell like sewage also .the lighting in the hallway was supposed to be on a motion detector, that did not work . It was the scariest thing !imagine standing in a unfamiliar dark hallway. The rooms were duty the bathroom was dirty with mold in the shower the hand held device in the shower was broken! It was the most uncomfortable and scary experience. The following morning I went to ask reception a question(older Caucasian women) about where is a rubbish bin. She looked at me and said” I don’t know and my bin is only for paper “terrible customer service

The room was quite dark with dark colours even though we paid extra for a balcony it wasnt worth it. The bathroom had a strange smell from the drains. The cleaner left her key in the room with the door wide open and had gone home! When we said to reveption staff that our items had been left for anyone to take with the door wide open they just said dont worry! Nothing else.

We completed a pre registration form and they asked if we were celebrating something. We said yes and then the hotel did nothing anyway so it was pointless.

Hotel Elixir is a small but comfortable hotel, ideal for travelers looking for a convenient location in Paris. There are many dining options within walking distance, which makes it very easy to find places to eat at any time of day.

The staff is attentive and helpful, and the hotel is located close to a train station, making transportation around the city very convenient. Taxis and ride-share services like Uber are also easily accessible nearby. Overall, it’s a practical and pleasant place to stay.

The room stunk like sewage. We advised the staff that said they would try to fix the drain but it was apparent that this was an ongoing non-fixable issue. It was like sleeping inside a dirty toilet bowl. They should have never rented out that room, let alone at its very expensive rate! This hotel should be banned from Expedia.

Only 2 mornings on 4 and we liked to fully nourish ourselves before leaving for the day so we could make it to an early supper. Overall though, great experience. We will recommend the hotel and would go back if going to Paris again.

During the week we stayed there, we saw at least 7 different people manning the one-man front desk. One was friendly and helpful. The others hardly spoke a word.

The room was spacious and clean enough. The shower was strange, with only a handheld sprayer and no shower curtain. The elevator was tiny and SLOW.

That said, you cannot beat the location. An easy walk from the Seine, Notre Dame, the Louvre, and multiple metro stations to get you anywhere else you want to go. I would absolutely stay here again.

Just stayed here recently and wanted to be at a hotel that was in the vicinity of the Louvre, had good restaurant options, and was able to handle a family of four comfortably. We ended up with an adjoining room type situation that worked well for us. The restaurants in the vicinity were great, and it was very close to shopping areas as well. The train station is a three-minute walk and is also very convenient.
The term \"buffet-breakfast\" should not be taken seriously as there were just breads, jams and a couple of fruit options. We ended up going to a local restaurant (Café Benjamin) for breakfast. The space itself was very clean and the front desk staff was helpful and hospitable.

A Perfect Parisian Gem!

We had an incredible stay at Hôtel Elixir — a true hidden gem in the heart of Paris. The location couldn’t have been more perfect: just a short walk to the Seine, with a stunning view of the Eiffel Tower in the distance. Tucked in a charming area, it was also steps from the metro, making it so easy to explore every corner of the city.

The hotel itself is a lovely boutique property — cozy, clean, and full of Parisian charm. What truly set it apart, though, was the staff. From the moment we arrived, they were warm, welcoming, and went out of their way to make our stay special.

If you’re looking for a centrally located, intimate, and memorable place to stay in Paris, I cannot recommend Hôtel Elixir enough. I would absolutely stay here again without hesitation!

Horrible dirty hotel

Horrible Stay – Avoid This Place!

I had an awful experience at this hotel. The bathroom had visible mold, and the room was covered in dust—clearly not cleaned properly. The entire place smelled terrible, like mildew and old smoke. On top of that, there was no proper standing shower, just a poorly designed setup that made it almost impossible to shower comfortably. Definitely not worth the money. I would not recommend this place to anyone.

I was very impressed upon arrival with service, cleanliness and room amenities. There were four people in our family and I was happy to have a pretty cool convertible couch to bunk bed option available. However, after my first night I woke up to bed bugs! My amazing trip to Paris was ruined after being bitten all over my body. That same morning I brought a bed bug down to reception and she did not seem very surprised. She said she would do her best to get us into a new room. Upon arrival after exploring for the day we were provided with a new room. We had to pack all our things and we were placed in a smaller room and a pull out couch for the kids. Sleepless nights for me from itching and constantly checking for bed bugs for the rest of our stay. New room had a lot of mold in the bathroom and we could not adjust the heat, so we were sweating every night. Our room door handle constantly fell off on the outer side every time we pulled to close! Very disappointed with this property. Wouldn’t recommend. Looks were very deceiving. Hoping I don’t bring any bedbugs home! Also- worth mentioning that we were placed right below our old room and it was definitely made available to others upon our switch. So horrible! Now to return home to wash/throw away personal items and embarrassed on Easter weekend covered in bites. I need a full refund for this horrible experience for my family.

Overall this is a great hotel for the price. Hotels in Paris are very expensive, so if you’re looking for a decent and affordable option, I would recommend this hotel. It’s nothing fancy and very small, but it’s in a great location, just steps away from the Louvre and the seine.

Some cons:

The bathroom had stuff all over the walls and the soap they provide inside of the shower was empty. The door to the bathroom and the glass window in the shower is pretty much see through and there’s no lock, so whoever is sitting in the room while you’re showering can see you through the glass. Also, they turned off the ac in the main lobby, which then turned off the ac to the whole building. The wifi is also very bad.

All in all it’s a great hotel, just don’t expect luxury.

Hotel Elixir is ideal for exploring Paris and Its location is excellent for traveling from the airport : it literally takes 2 minutes to reach the hotel from the RER B, exit 14. The staff is also very kind, giving us the room much earlier than check-in time if the room is available. That is a real bonus after traveling all night. The room is small like they all are in Paris but nicely put together. I would go back there anytime.

I really don’t understand the positive reviews for this hotel.. one of the worst hotels I’ve been to at this price point. We got so catfished by the hotel’s photos! Where to start…

- This was the MOST uncomfortable bed and pillows I’ve ever experienced. Topped with extremely cheap, itchy bedding. Barely slept.

- The construction right outside the doors starts at 7:30AM (we were not made aware by staff)

- Rooms are not cleaned very well (dust all over under the furniture, children’s stickers found on the mattress under the sheets when we were checking for bed bugs)

- The shower is simply a handle and there is no shower door. Water gets everywhere. The tub drains SO slowly that it almost fully filled up by the time one of us had showered. The tiles in the shower looked like they were done by an amateur.

- You hear every conversation of the guests in the rooms beside you, and every footstep of the guests above you

The only redeeming quality of this hotel is its location, but I would recommend staying elsewhere and taking the metro. I could only recommend this hotel in good conscience if it was 1/3 of the price we paid. I actually got sad whenever we had to go back for the night
