The hotel is very conveniently located, close to Nice Gare, Old Town, and the city center. The staff are extremely helpful and friendly. If you’re planning to stay in Nice and visit Monaco and Cannes, you can book this hotel without hesitation. It’s also just a 5–7 minute walk from the tram coming from the airport.

Only stayed one night here before flying out of Nice airport, but wish I could’ve stayed longer! The location was incredibly convenient for getting my heavy bags to and from the train station, but still close enough to the centre of town to explore everything Nice had to offer. Friendly staff and comfortable, clean rooms. I will definitely be back!
