Hôtel Elysées Céramic
Hôtel Elysées Céramic stands in Paris’s eighth arrondissement, near the Champs-Élysées and the Arc de Triomphe. Jules Lavirotte built the hotel in 1904. Its Art Nouveau façade combines flamed stoneware ceramics by Alexandre Bigot with sculptures by Camille Alaphilippe. Together, these details give the building its distinctive appearance.
The façade and roof became historical monuments in 1964, preserving the work’s architectural character. Inside, soundproofed rooms and free Wi-Fi provide practical comforts for stays in Paris. A secluded patio offers a quieter setting behind the lively streets of the district. The contrast between ornate ceramics, sculpted figures, and the sheltered courtyard remains the memorable detail.
