Comfortable, convenient hotel in the heart of Paris. Close to churches, museums, and other places of interest. The breakfast is great!

Having been a patron of the Lavoisier hotel for over 20 years, my loyalty to this establishment stemmed from my positive experiences at the Tourville hotel in the 7th, which I held in high regard. The cozy and quintessentially Parisian decor, coupled with the courteous and dependable staff, and the delicious breakfast offerings, made the Tourville a memorable stay. Thus, when I relocated to the Lavoisier due to its convenient location, it became my preferred choice for accommodation over the years.
However, I hadn't stayed there in the last 6 years as I was living permanently in Paris. Now, as a visitor to the French capital once again, I resumed my lodging habits and booked the Lavoisier for 2 nights. Unaware it had been sold, I was taken aback by the transformation of the hotel.
Upon arrival, I was greeted by what seemed like an entirely new establishment, prompting a moment of doubt about whether I had arrived at the correct address.
While I understand that changes often accompany shifts in ownership, the new decor failed to meet the expectations one would have for a prestigious establishment in the 8th arrondissement. The lobby, with its glaringly bright lights and shiny white paint, resembled more of a hospital hallway than a welcoming entrance. Moreover, the relocation of the breakfast room to the lobby gave the impression of a trendy restaurant rather than a traditional hotel. The mishmash of Japanese influences, lantern-style chandeliers, and an assortment of small tables with mismatched chairs, ranging from Ikea styles to rattan, created an eclectic but disjointed atmosphere.
My initial disappointment was somewhat alleviated upon entering room 36, which retained its old charm. The comfortable bed ensured a peaceful night's rest amidst the unfamiliar changes.
One reassuring aspect was the presence of familiar faces among the original staff, which contributed to a sense of familiarity and comfort.
Nevertheless, I hope that the decor will undergo adjustments to better align with the refined tastes expected in this district. Perhaps starting with dimming the lights could help create a more subdued and welcoming ambiance.

Habitaciones pequeñas pero muy cómodas.

Hôtel en travaux, réceptionniste plein de bonne volonté, mais très difficile à comprendre, chauffage en panne à mon arrivée et très insuffisant ensuite, bruit parfois assourdissant des perceuses et des ponceuses, robinet cassé dans la salle de bain. Pas de minibar. Une expérience très antipathique. 200 euros en basse-saison pour ça, c'est très vexant !

Je fréquente cette maison qui est pour moi une véritable institution avec un nom qui a une résonnance particuliere puisqu'elle porte le nom d'un grand chimiste et physicien: Antoine Lavoisier
On y séjourne avec grand plaisir , l'accueil y est sympathique, les chambres sont pleines de charmes et élégantes, et l'emplacement est idéal dans le centre de Paris.

Excellent et conforme à la description

Hôtel très bien situé et dans une rue calme.
Chambre spacieuse
Personnel très agréable, souriant, serviable , le tout avec un ressenti de sincérité

Schönes ruhiges Hotel. Das Personal ist freundlich und hilfsbereit. Unser Zimmer war für Pariser Verhältnisse Recht groß. Zum Frühstück kann ich nix sagen da wir lieber jeden Morgen zum Bäcker um die Ecke sind um mehr Abwechslung zu haben.

Personnel et direction très accueillants et disponibles, la bouteille offerte à l'arrivée était une agréable surprise, petit déjeuner de qualité, chambre très confortable, emplacement idéal, à recommander

Excellent place to stay . Very cozy place and ideally located in the center of Paris . Despite many options to stay at other hotels I have decided to stay here as I have over the past 10 years . Staff is wonderful especially those at the front desk and managemt . It I ideal for young couples. I strongly recommend staying here as I will again many times.

欢迎中国人来这里休息好。
暑假和做生意都会很顺利在这家酒店放松以后。

When you read the reviews and see the pictures on Google it’s not what the hotels looks in real.
This is not a 4 stars hotel.
Paris is a city of lights, flowers some how chic. This hotel is not Parisian at all.
Breakfast was on the floor -1.
At night when we arrive there was nobody except we made some noise and then someone showed up.
People who work there have breakfast same time as we had.
The elevator is creepy.
It’s well located, 2 block from the metro.
The bedroom was fine. No refrigerator. Nothing in the bathroom except for shampoo and soup. No conditioner, toothpaste, etc.. like a 4 stars hotel would have.

I was very impressed about everything,rooms was very nice and large❤ ,food was very tasty and so many choices ????,people from reception was very generous with us and helped us with different information about different places was needed. THANKS FOR EVERYTHING!!! The best people and hotel !!!❤❤❤

I love this hotel...been saying here for over 15 years. Great location. Very comfortable rooms and great staff. Highly recommended

Best little boutique hotel close to everything,rooms are nice and clean, no restaurant only brekkie.

A great stay here. Nice room. Great service. Help yourself honesty bar. Luggage drop available before and after check in. Easy access to metro and buses. Nice bars nearby and really good double glazing so don't worry about the noise from streets as there is Aircon in the rooms anyway so windows can be closed in hot weather.

Hotel was cancelled at the last moment. Now they have policy of NO KIDS allowed.

We booked this for October 2023 trip of ours. check in 16th and check out 19th 2023

Should have told us before when we booked months in advance that kids are NOT Allowed.

Now we will have to book on almost twice the price. Highly non recommendable.

Alternative given is WAY out of the current location. We purposefully took hotel in 8th Arr, and they want us to go beyond 15th Arr and more far. They dont even want to return money we paid. Struggling lot with them in getting accomodation back.

Please beware before booking this hotel, they will cancel at the last moment.

Hi hotel, As I cannot reply to your comment, I am adding more comments here.

Hotel was booked for 2023 and not any random date and sob story which you are telling.

I never even made to hotel as my trip is in future and you created a sob story which tells anything but a lie.

the reason we likes your hotel as it is at a perfect distance what we wanted. Now, the alternatives you are giving us for cancellation are in 15-16th arr and worse further.

Now, as you cancelled at last minute, the rates we are getting is 3 times what we got it before now and we now have to shell out more money for replacement for no fault of ours.

Hope this enlightens you and next time you dont SCAM peopl
