Very Good

The hotel is very conveniently located, close to Nice Gare, Old Town, and the city center. The staff are extremely helpful and friendly. If you’re planning to stay in Nice and visit Monaco and Cannes, you can book this hotel without hesitation. It’s also just a 5–7 minute walk from the tram coming from the airport.
Only stayed one night here before flying out of Nice airport, but wish I could’ve stayed longer! The location was incredibly convenient for getting my heavy bags to and from the train station, but still close enough to the centre of town to explore everything Nice had to offer. Friendly staff and comfortable, clean rooms. I will definitely be back!
Lovely hotel with friendly staff, great location with just a 5mins walk to Nice Ville station, ideal if you’re travelling along the coast on day trips. Would stay here again!

I didn't have breakfast in the hotel as i dont usually have breakfast. The room i was given on arrival was unsatisfactory but the hotel changed it for a better room which made my stay lovely.
We had wonderful time here. The staff on the front desk very friendly and welcoming.
Room are on the smaller side. Smallest sink we have ever seen.
Close to the train if you have to go to Anton, Monaco and many other places.
Centrally located, in walking distance from the train station. Quite a few nearby restaurants as well.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Staff is excellent, professional, and welcoming. The property itself is a bit worn and I could hear every sound from the room next door through the wall. But it's close to the train station.
