Reviews and Ratings
I stayed at this hotel, and it was a mixed experience. The rooms were very comfortable and quiet, but on the smaller side and tend to get hot. The service, while friendly, lacked the professional touch in some areas, especially housekeeping. The location was superb, close to the beach and in a bustling neighborhood with plenty of attractions nearby. The dining options were not ideal for a 4-star hotel, with subpar coffee and tasteless dishes. However, overall, my stay was satisfactory considering the amenities and value for money.
The hotel had spacious, very clean rooms with comfortable beds and an amazing view of the city roofs. While the outside traffic noise was a drawback, the beauty and tranquility of the rooms were exceptional. The service was absolutely amazing, with super friendly staff providing top-notch assistance. The location was perfect, close to major attractions and only a short walk to the train station. Dining was lacking, with poorly made coffee and tasteless options, but the overall experience was good given the price point.
My stay at the hotel was overall pleasant. The rooms, although somewhat outdated with torn wallpaper and dim lighting, were comfortable and had all the necessary amenities like fridge, coffee, blow dryer, bathrobe, and pillows. I did have to ask reception to clean my room on two different days. The service, especially the young girl with dark hair, was absolutely amazing and went the extra mile. The location was perfect for exploring Nice, close to the beach and central to many attractions. The dining experience was not really value for money but the continental breakfast delivered to the room was tasty. The hotel had nice facilities like easy access to public transport and plenty of dining options nearby.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms were spacious, spotlessly clean, and had a mini kitchen which was very convenient. The service was outstanding, with warm and friendly staff always ready to help. The location was perfect, close to the promenade and with easy access to public transport. The dining options were somewhat limited, but the overall experience was great.
My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant. The rooms were overall quite clean, although a little dark. I was a bit surprised to find myself in a decommissioned room with a lack of furniture in the ‘ living room'. The service was good, with polite staff always checking if we were having a good time. The location was excellent, just a short walk to everything. The dining experience was okay per French standards, and the facilities were sufficient.
The hotel was perfect for what we wanted with a lovely balcony for people-watching or ocean views, though it felt a bit small for my liking. The rooms were somewhat outdated with torn wallpaper, dim lighting, and the cleanliness of the tub was questionable. On the plus side, the living area had some better furniture.
The hotel is situated in a convenient location, close to the beach and within walking distance to the Old Town. The rooms, though smaller than expected, were clean but overlooked a less appealing back street. The service was a mix of fantastic and not so friendly encounters. The dining options were limited but included some basic fresh choices. The hotel's position near tourist attractions and the beach adds to its value.
