The hotel was a bit run down and not in the best condition. The walls between the rooms were too thin and you can hear a lot of noise from outside. The room was ok but very outdated and not very comfortable. Good enough for our stay but won’t be staying there again. The location was great though and close to everything in the city and transportation.

Perfect hotel for exploring Nice

Nice hotel situated in close to the old city, shopping and the beach. We paid for parking at the hotel, parked safely under Nice Etoile max 5 minutes walk from the hotel. Only bad thing about the parking was that you have to pay a deposit in cash, which the hotel didn’t tell us before even though we wrote a lot of details regarding parking before arrival. Nice clean room, our family of 4 fitted well. New bathroom, small toilet. Refrigerator in the room. No view from the room, but we weren’t expecting that, the hotel and room lived up to our expectations, kind staff as well. We will use the hotel again next time we visit Nice
