“What I found most appealing is the hotel's embrace of its history, dating back to the early 1900s, blended with modern updates. The location is excellent, near the Promenade des Anglais and public transport, which makes exploring Nice very convenient. In my opinion, it balances accessibility with a distinctive, family-run feel.”

fantastic stay!

train stationshort walkfriendly staffpoor drainage
the location is excellent it's near the train station and the promenade is a short walk. i liked the breakfast the food tasted great. friendly staff completed my positive experience. i also appreciated that i could leave my bags after checking out and spend some time in the conference room.
the bathroom felt a little cramped to me it was hard to shower comfortably without bumping into the walls or the shower curtain. i feel like an average sized person could struggle even more. the water drainage was poor too

The breakfast included varied options. I saw pastries, fruit, and cheeses. Tram access to the area from the airport was easy due to line number 2.
My room had only one wall plug, so charging multiple devices was difficult.

A Good Stay!

excellent locationfriendly stafftasty optionslovely view
The location was superb! It was a short walk to the beach and other attractions. The staff were helpful and friendly. Breakfast offered a wonderful selection of tasty options. The room was very clean, and the big windows provided a lovely view of the garden.
The soundproofing in the room was minimal. I could hear noises from the street.
