Hotel berhampiran LA GARE DU SUD, Nice

We had a brilliant stay here, just after New Year. It was comparatively warm weather and we had come down from Paris slowly taking a bit more than a week to reach the Riviera. Nice was still dressed for Christmas and we wanted to be walking distance from the old Town. This is a very nicely done hotel in a heritage building, so the typical tiny old fashioned lift. Big bedrooms and bathrooms, and 2 minutes walk to the central plaza. Parking is in a separate building a block - and 2 minutes - away so convenient enough not to be a problem. Excellent staff, spotlessly clean rooms and crisp linens. A lovely spot place to spend some time.

We arrived slightly early but they let us in a room that had been finished. It was the room just at the top of the first flight of stairs after the reception it was ok clean and small, the bathroom was tiny and the toilet you had to sit on sideways, I think it was put in wrong and it also had hot water, the cistern was warm. The breakfast was ok not brilliant but we managed to have a couple of things. But we weren't staying all day in the hotel so it was fine for location and price, I found it funny to be given ear plugs but it was noisy, especially when the bin men came round at midnight and somebody used the old lift slamming the door. also we had no fridge and no little milk sachets so I had to keep going down for milk if I wanted a brew, thankfully we took our own coffee etc.

I took a chance on this hostel as I had to switch at the last minute, I thought it might be a party hostel but they assured me the rooms are quiet, which they are as in you can't hear the music too loudly, but as everyone is there to party it does spill into the room a bit. Not complaining, just be aware. The location is great, it's pretty clean as hostels go, The staff seem nice esp the chap on the front desk, I don't know his name but he's from Manchester and went above and beyond. The real disappointment for me was the things that are listed as being offered that aren't. I travel solo so I really like having the option of eating at the hostel, They say they have a restaurant, I didn't find it, apparently they do offer food but only after 7pm, although other guests said that wasnt so. . Also stated they offer tea, coffee and hot chocolate but they don't. Otherwise room was fine, bed comfy, bar area nice. I wouldn't personally go back, not because it's bad, just because it's not my scene. If you are looking to party though then it's prob a good choice.

La ubicación es excelente y la habitación que nos tocó era espaciosa y cómoda, pero sumamente ruidosa: estaba en el primer piso y no tenía cortinas: sólo tenía black-out, es decir, que teníamos dos opciones: o estar sin luz natural o exponernos a la mirada de vecinos y transeúntes. El baño, si bien era antiguo, estaba limpio, pero no tiene enchufes y no ponen amenities. La puerta de la habitación no tiene traba y el wifi no es bueno y es incompatible con los Iphone, inconcebible hoy en día, en que una gran parte de los pasajeros tienen Iphone. Y lo peor al respecto fue la pésima atención de la recepcionista que estaba cuando llegamos al hotel el sábado 8 de abril por la mañana, quien cuando le pedimos ayuda para conectarnos nos respondió a la defensiva y de modo grosero y mostró muy poca predisposición para ayudarnos, pero terminó reconociendo que la red que ofrece el hotel no es segura y, por lo tanto, no es compatible con los Iphone. Así que si tienes un Iphone, este hotel es la peor elección. Y un último detalle, no menor: el hotel no respetó las normas de la plataforma Booking, a través de la cual hice la reserva (cancelable y sin pago anticipado), según la cual tenía tiempo hasta el 5 de abril a las 23:59 hs. para cancelar la reserva. Sin embargo, dos días antes, el hotel hizo efectivo el pago. En conclusión, mi experiencia con este hotel no fue buena. Por el mismo precio, hay muchos otros hoteles bien ubicados y que ofrecen mejor servicio.

Pros: Beautiful room with a wonderful view of the sea. Staff were lovely and accommodating. Breakfast was excellent. Location was flawless. Cons: The breakfast was amazing, but the options were the same every day without any changes. Gym was almost non-existent. The dinner options were heavily mushroom/truffle focused which made it difficult for me who suffers with allergies to them.

The hotel offered a comfortable experience with its 24/7 reception, ideal for early departures. Moreover, guests could rent a boiler for a 20€ deposit. Three towels were provided, and guests could request replacements if needed, without any additional laundry charges if the towels were exchanged due to being used. However, it's important to note that daily cleaning services were not provided.

What a Pity!!! I am not usual to leave reviews. Me and my wife have the fortune to visit best places and hotels all over the world. But in this case I feel I have to do it. It is very easy to say this is one of the best location in the world, iconic, historic a reach of glamour same think for the facilities. Yes it needs to be restored, windows are hold and ruined and when you spend 5.000 euro per night and your outstanding view through the window is opaque because they are hold and impossible to clean I think this is an issue. But the strong delusion come from the total below standard for a four season of the general level of service: 1. Poor set up of the rooms Amenities for the bathroom, not in line no with other hotel like Bristol Paris, Park Hyatt, Rocco Forte or what I consider the top in this Moment in French Riviera chateau de la Mesardiere a St.Tropez.,but maybe for a normal 4 stars hotel. 2. My wife ask for an hair Straightener like she uses to do in such hotels like this, no way to have it complimentary (belmond, Rocco Forte, doucherster is now a standard when you spend half price … 3. Shuttle service from 9 to 7 pm. With a Mercedes uncleaned V. We wanna talk about of the 5 Tesla of the breakers @Palm Beach or the 4 Rolls Royce Culmigham @ Le Mesardiere a total disposal for customers h24. Four Seassom Kyoto (one of the best in the world 5 years ago had a Bentley) 4 other minor (maybe) issue that I don’t want to mention for space reasons. Details which make the difference at this level and is what your are looking for. I had the opportunity to talk to Mr Camerana head of Marketing, he said ok I see, I understand you probably right but at the end…after two nights I paid my bill for total approx 11.000 euro with just 400 euro of extras. I didn’t pretend anything but is seems like no one cared of my complaints. So beautiful location (the only think it is worth to pay today if u never been there), facilities to be renovated and level of service below standard. Having breakfast or dinner (in this case five star top) under the secolary pine woods worth the experience. Lorenzo Guidotti

Pool is owned by Nikki Beach, so hotel guests are only provided complimentary lounge chairs at Nikki’s discretion. You are forced to either pay 200+ Euro for a daybed, or awkwardly sit/hang out on the narrow corners of the pool. Nikki beach tries to provide a and adult day party atmosphere with DJ, bottle service and hookah, but small kids were playing in the pool all day. Room smelled like stale cigarettes, old stains on the carpet, bathroom had zero ventilation and fogged up like a sauna any time you turn on the shower, everything gets wet and stays wet. For some reason a moldy bath mat was rolled up and propped to the side of the tub upon arrival. All staff were very professional and accommodating, met the level of service I would expect at a luxury hotel. Location is decent, Nobu inside the lobby, short walk to Buddha Bar and ******, about 15 min walk to the beach. There was a lot of construction going on (August 2023) surrounding the hotel, several cranes obstructing the views.

Muniti di wifi gli appartamenti sono molto carini con cucina piccola e munita del necessario. Alla reception il personale molto accogliente cordiale e risponde a tutte le esigenze del cliente e munisce al check in di tutte le info necessarie per il soggiorno.
