Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Hotel Elevator at 4.8 against Elevator simulator's 3.2. Hotel Elevator also leads on ratings volume (6.6K vs 5). Elevator simulator's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 6 weeks). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Elevator simulator sells 9 one-off in-app purchases and Hotel Elevator sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Hotel Elevator holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 3.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Hotel Elevator has 6.6K ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of Elevator simulator's written reviews are positive against 40% of Hotel Elevator's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Elevator simulator ships an update every 3 weeks, Hotel Elevator every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
