"Everything about the hotel was perfect, including the staff. The male employees were extremely kind, friendly, and always willing to help, which made the stay even better and very welcoming. However, the lady who works in the mornings received me in a very unfriendly and rude manner. Her attitude was noticeably cold and unkind toward me, which stood out negatively compared to the rest of the experience. It honestly felt like a grey cloud over an otherwise wonderful hotel. Despite that, the...

Hôtel La Villa Nice Victor Hugo

10/10 Excellent

"What a wonderful hotel. Beautiful room with all you need and really friendly staff. The location for exploring is ideal. 5 minute walk to the coast and less than 10 minutes to the station. Such a beautiful location"

Hôtel Vacances Bleues Le Royal

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel has an outstanding location on the Promenade des Anglais and is within walking distance of the old town and the flower market. It is about 1 mile from the train station if you intend to use the train to get around but Uber is very quick, reasonable and will pick up right in front of the hotel and there are also buses that go up and down the promenade. The rooms are spacious and the seaside ones have great views. The breakfast was adequate with a few standard choices but was identical every day. The hotel has no gym, spa or beach club but otherwise very convenient and comfortable."

Hotel Busby

10/10 Excellent

"A great hotel, well situated ( nr the tram station ascal Lorraine) so an easy , cheap @ 10 euros return & quick transfer from airport. The staff are all polite & helpful & work hard esp the maids. Big thanks to Faruque for listening & sorting our room out. The hotel has a nice outdoor small area which was pleasant to sit out listening to the birds sing. Rooms are very spacious & clean, best 3* we have stayed at in Nice, most are v v small. The large airy lounge was comfortable to read & rest in. We never used the bar( v v small) or had breakfast there- lots of patisseries near by. Air con was great, needed at 30 degrees most days. We are definatly returning & re booking with Hotel Busby next May 27’ . Many thanks."
