Awful - Would Not Stay Again!!

Unfortunately, our stay at this hotel was very disappointing. The room was filthy upon arrival – dust everywhere, stained bedding, and a general lack of cleanliness. The bathroom was in particularly bad shape, with grime in the shower, a dirty toilet, and an unpleasant smell that lingered throughout our stay. To make things worse, the in-room safe was broken, which made it difficult to store valuables securely. We raised these issues with the staff, but the response was either slow or dismissive, and nothing was properly addressed. Overall, it felt like basic standards of cleanliness and maintenance were not being met. Definitely not the experience we expected, and we would not return.

To say these rooms are small is an understatement. Big bathroom is plus. Fresh crossaints and bread in the am is nice along with a fancy coffee maker. It was nice to have a hot water kettle in the room but hard to hang out in the room as you can barely walk around the bed.

This hotel is ok. I would say is a two stars hotel rather than three. The breakfast is very poor, and far from it was advertised which I believe is a bit misleading when you compare the hotel with other hotels to take a decision. The location is excellent if you want Nice to be you base destination

The hotel was perfectly located for our needs, a five night stay to get to know Nice and go to Monte Carlo for the tennis tournament by train. All staff were welcoming and helpful, bar one (feedback was given to management), the petit dejeuner was good value. The room was compact but we travel light! Good bathroom and facilities. A happy stay overall!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I had a wonderful stay at this hotel in Nice! The location was absolutely perfect—just a short walk to the beach, restaurants, and main attractions. The staff was incredibly friendly and went out of their way to make us feel welcome. The breakfast was delicious, with plenty of options to start the day right.
