Mercure Nice Promenade Des Anglais
"My room was clean and overlooked the beach. I did not try the breakfast. There was no bar to speak of, though a rooftop bar would be ideal at this location on the promenade."

Le Meridien Nice
"The location was really good. Close to the beach & restaurant & bars & shops as it was central to most places. We had an executive room with terrace city view. It was smaller than expected for the price we paid. We had drinks at the bar and the service was good. The breakfast was a big keg down. ..."
