The staff is friendly and attentive. Property needs a little touch up /remodeling ##### Larisa Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Megan 14 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Staff were friendly. Room was clean. And breakfast was delicious. It’s a quiet, quant area. About a 8 minute walk to the tram and the train was 3 minute walk. Tram could take you to Old Nice in minutes. We would definitely stay here again! ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/9912b1ed-94ce-4b15-984c-64db0c3458fe-1757808306642.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Megan Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jordan 8 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Clean, friendly, nice garden with lounge pool.

We stayed there for one night after our train ride from Paris to Nice Ville. Super walkable from the Nice Ville train station and a very lovely staff. Definitely would recommend, our bathroom was a little small but totally doable for one night. ##### Juston Stayed 1 night in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jason 22 Mar 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Beautiful building, very welcoming staff, very nice French-style breakfast, close to the rail station and nice restaurants. ##### Jason Stayed 1 night in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Linda 17 May 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Clean, size of room, location ##### Linda Stayed 4 nights in May 2025 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Larisa 15 Aug 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities This is advertised as a 4-star property, but in reality, it feels closer to 2.5–3 stars at best. The bathroom has visible mold, the bathtub is dirty and scratched, the furniture is worn and damaged, and there is a strong, unpleasant odor coming from the bathroom. Additionally, there is dirt under the bed, which shows a lack of proper cleaning. Charging over $300 per night for these conditions is unacceptable. I will be requesting a refund immediately. ##### Larisa Stayed 1 night in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mike 29 Apr 2025 Liked: Amenities Staff was fantastic to deal with. Unfortunately the garden area in the back was under some renovations so we couldn’t partake in that space but the hotel itself was gorgeous. ##### Mike Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2025 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Harsha 8 Jul 2025 Disliked: Property conditions & facilities Terrible front desk staff, raised issues multiple times regarding not having AC during a heatwave and was told by 3 different people that an “electrician” was coming to help. Initially offered another room however they said hotel was booked when asked - was forced to stay an additional night given the late hour of notification until we checked into another hotel. ##### Harsha Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ping 15 Feb 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great hotel to stay with children.

The receptionist was helpful but ultimately it was a problem to be solved by an engineer. ##### Darrel Stayed 1 night in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Julia 16 Jun 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Excellent service and location. ##### Julia Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tracy 18 Feb 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great breakfast.
