“Garden Beach, incredibly helpful staff”
I regularly stay at the Garden Beach. It's incredible value for the money. This trip I had several business related requests that were all me happily, professionally and promptly. It wasn't a surprise, just a nice confirmation that the hotel is well run and a perfect place to stay when visiting Antibes.
“4 stars not justified”
This room was the dirtiest room ever. Additional hidden costs : 15 EUR per person to go to the beach ! 25 EUR per day for parking. Fortunately, the manager gave us another upgraded room for our second night.
“Love the location”
The Garden Beach is located in the most perfect spot in Juan les Pins. Right on the beach and walking distance from shopping, restaurants and bars. Only thing that is annoying is the fact you have to pay for the sun loungers on the beach. If you're staying there then you shouldn't have to pay for this sort of thing. The indoor pool and fitness equipment is all at extra cost. It would also be good if they had coffee/tea making facilities in the room. Nowadays this hotel could do with a bit of a refurb as it is looking a bit 'tired' but its somewhere we have returned to for the past 5 or 6 visits to the South of France and will continue to do so.
“Could be a Great hotel with some TLC”
The Garden Beach hotel is in a great location surrounded by restaurants and right next door to a casino. There is a really good coffee shop across the street, literally 30 seconds from room to table which serves good food and great coffee. I say this because the hotel charge for breakfast is really high and there is not a coffee maker or hot water kettle in the room. The staff was very friendly and any time I had an issue they were quick to respond. I had a problem with the water temperature fluctuating while taking a shower and they had maintenance there within 30 minutes to look at it. The maintenance tech improved it but the water temp did continue to fluctuate from hot to cold and back again. This happened at all times in the morning so it was not that all the guests were taking a shower at the same time. The room really needed to be refurbished as all the wardrobes, dressers, nightstands etc. were fairly well used. Nothing was 'broke' just well used. Even though we had requested a non-smoking room, and the room was clearly marked as non-smoking, someone had definitely smoked in the room. The front desk staff offered to have housekeeping come up to help get rid off the smoke smell but there were no other rooms available for us to switch. In fairness, the hotel can't really control this so I can't put them at fault although it was a bit unpleasant for my wife on the first night. All in all, I would recommend and I would stay there again.
“A great short break”
The hotel was ideally located right in the heart of the resort. Staff were very friendly and helpful. The hotel offered a valet car parking service that was very convenient and reasonably priced compared to the public car park rate. The breakfast seemed very expensive, and the need to pay a high price to use sun loungers for the hotel beach was annoying. The free WiFi was convenient for our young son who wanted to play online games from his laptop in the evenings. All in all I would however highly recommend the hotel.
“'Second time we have stayed at this hotel'”
We booked this hotel for the second time as we were attending the F1 event in Monaco. As you can imagine hotels there are pricey so this hotel suited our budget and was only a train ride away from the event. This hotel is friendly, clean and tidy and the rooms are fine. We can't comment on the restaurants at this hotel as we ate out but you can imagine like everything else here it would of been pricey. Overall we were happy with our stay and would recomend this hotel!!
“Sea View”
I thought Superior room would have a sea view. No - upgrade to deluxe ! Still no balcony. But didn't spoil the experience - fantastique !
“Fantastic location”
The hotel is in a superb location. We paid extra for a room with a sea view so we weren't disappointed. The staff were friendly and helpful. The room was comfortable but needs updating, though we understand the hotel is going to be refurbished in Autumn 2010. I do think it is unreasonable to charge for sunbeds on their private beach - quite expensive too! But enjoyed our stay nonetheless.
“Garden Beach Hotel”
We thought we had upgraded to 'superior' room, but the room was very basic anfd at the back of the hotel overlooking the main street, it had no balcony and had assumed that for the cost we would hace had a balcony, maybe even overlooking the sea
“Great weekend”
Great location, right on the beach with fantastic sea views from the dining area and really close to the bars and restaurants. If you can afford the rooms with a sea view it's worth the extra. We didn't eat there so can't comment on the food. We opted to have breakfast at the cafe on the corner opposite the entrance which was lovely sitting outside. Staff were very helpful and polite. Room was great for us, very clean, although could probably do with a revamp fairly soon in terms of carpets and curtains. If you have a car it's worth using the underground car park as street parking is in short supply. We would go again.
