This hotel has a fun, consistent aesthetic. They leaned into the maximalism trend in a clean understandable way. The staff gives great dining recommendations and it’s walkable to most needs. The pool, bar and restaurant are lovely. *They should add some missing details to make it feel more upscale: a gym, robes, washcloths, conditioner and coffee/tea.

Comfortable and happy stay at Mama Shelter. The bed was super comfy! Staff are very welcoming and friendly. A little walk from tram stop and seafront but very near Nice Riquier station - perfect for day trips - and only a few minutes from a good range of restaurants and bars. Buffet breakfast decent with a good amount of choice. Options for the restaurant and terrace menus are a but decent. The room had no kettle so way of making hot drinks, which is disappointing, and surprising given the level of hotel. I also couldn’t get the air conditioning to work. I kept forgetting to ask reception about it but at one point the control screen said “centrally controlled”. It meant the room never cooled down and it was uncomfortably warm at night which meant poor nights sleeping despite the comfy bed. Overall, I liked the hotel, but the warm room and lack of coffee/tea making in room would probably mean choosing elsewhere if I returned to Nice.

Love the stay at Mamas. This was my first time and will definitely come back again. The staff was polite, informative and helpful. The hotel itself was very fun and nice in design. It’s different in a very good way! The breakfast could vary a bit, but it’s fine if you don’t stay here too long.

A quiet, clean, comfortable hotel that is close to a train station. There is a Carre Four express across the street. All of the staff were polite, helpful and willing to listen to my attempts as speaking French. A bit quirky with masks of Looney Tune characters on the lamps in the rooms. Only 4* for the are because the restaurant selections within a 10’ walk were not plentiful. I would definitely stay here again

We loved how reliable Mama Shelter was for our trip. Kataryna is fantastic! with great knowledge of fun things to do for night life & Simon with great outdoor recommendations! This is a brand new property so everything was clean and new which was very nice. Location has a very local vibe near to highway so good of your driving to Monaco or Canne. You can walk to the port in 10 minutes which was great. We would for sure stay in Mama Shelter again!

Needs work

Stayed for a long weekend. The beds are very comfy and the hotel is very clean. However there were lacking basic facilities, such as a kettle, glasses or cups in rooms, there was no minibar or room service so if you wanted a drink in the evening you had to go into the loud hotel bar / club. The bathroom only provided bars of soap to wash with so we had to purchase our own products. Considering the high price you pay to stay in the hotel, you’d expect a better level of service and quality. As well as this, when we checked in the other customers who checked in immediately after us were given the same room number so entered our room unannounced not knowing where they were meant to go.

Room Dirty and Glass in Hallway

Disappointed. Checked in to our room to find rubbish from the previous guests on the floor. There was also broken glass in the hallway outside the room that my girlfriend narrowly avoided. I informed reception about this who apologies, but nothing was done! The glass was still there for another 36 hours, and the rubbish in our room was never picked up. There was also no shampoo or conditioner in the shower, just a bar of soap that was designed to act as everything.. I asked reception if they had any actual actual shampoo and conditioner and they said no but advised there was a supermarket down the road! The pool area was cool. All in all very disappointed with the stay given we spent nearly £600 for 2 nights...
