Top Nice Hotel Reviews

Albert 1'er Hotel Nice, France

10/10 Excellent

"Great room and air conditioned"

Hotel West End Nice Promenade

10/10 Excellent

"Fantastic experience! Only downside was the air-conditioning was not very cold. They will tell you it is because of EU regulations, but all the other hotels we stayed at cold air conditioning."

Hotel Byakko Nice

8/10 Good

"convenient near train station location. clean room. not so great wifi conection."

Campanile PRIME - Nice Airport

8/10 Good

"Fine hotel if you have an early flight the next day - super convenient but no frills"

Mercure Nice Promenade Des Anglais

10/10 Excellent

"A perfect blend of what I needed - lovely and quality furnishings but not over-the-top or with services I don't use. Great bed and pillows, perfect A/C, a nice balcony overlooking the park and a bit of sea view (this is preferable over all sea view as it is more tranquil). It is on the bottom floors of a building that contains Le Meridian on the top floors, so location is the same. No pool, no spa, but I didn't need. Right across from the beach and close to everything on all sides (promenade, park, Old Town, shopping, even #12 bus to the airport, which is about $2 vs a $60 cab). Would definitely stay here again."

Hôtel Aston La Scala

8/10 Good

"Friendly staff and overall clean hotel and rooms. Great location and easy transport"

Hotel Busby

8/10 Good

"1st impression was wonderful. The staff really went out of their way to ensure we were taken care of. The location of the hotel in relation to the town was ideal. You can easily walk to any restaurant, the beach, or even the train station in about 10-15 mins depending on how fast you walk. I’d give this place 5 stars… but… it’s an older building that the plumbing hasn’t been modernized. If you’re taking a shower, and the wife flushes the toilet or turns the sink on, you will get scalded by the water heat. That really was my only complaint. It’s an older building with style… and the staff was extremely helpful, and spoke fluent English, which is nice when your a foreigner in a country trying your best to speak the language. When we return to Nice, I will book this hotel again. The hotel really goes out of thier way to ensure that thier guests get everything they need from drinks at the bar, to dinner reservations at great restaurants, and travel suggestions, it was refreshing to stay at a place that really cares. I highly recommend this hotel!"

Hôtel La Villa Nice Victor Hugo

10/10 Excellent

"Great hotel in the perfect walkable location."

Hôtel Saint Georges

8/10 Good

"L’hôtel était parfait, mais le wi-fi promis dans les chambres a été inaccessible pendant tout notre séjour, malgré l’avis qui avait été donné à la réception"
