Massena Square hotels

Nice hotel with very helpful staff who were happy to respond to any requests made. Loby was very cool ... White piano and horse sculptures. A staff from reception made our holiday very pleasant. Go and find Adriene from front desk / reception. He is such a nice welcoming person. We arrived little late to the hotel ..23:00 at night.. He tried his best to make us happy. We were so hungry and tired. He went to the kitchen and preaped food himself for us. He welcomed us at the terrace for some drinks and checked in every 10 minutes if everything was ok. And his friend from bar preaped our drinks ( I dont know his name ) but he was great too. Location is so close to shopping area. Rooms were little smaller than we expected but it was so clean. Breakfast was ok but needs to be improved. More cheese options, some olives and tomato & cucumber maybe :)

Ideal location; close to city centre and beach - our car whisked away to hotel garage in no time. All the staff at the hotel were simply magnificent; permanent smiles on their faces and so eager to please. "How do we get to the Allianz Stadium?" was one question posed at reception and within minutes we were provided with printed details of the route. Excellent breakfast, more than adequate facilities and what could be better than a picture of Brigitte Bardot above the bed and an idyllic snap of Marilyn Monroes in the lift! Hotel Massena - a truly great hotel. We'll be back!

Hotel Boreal has the perfect location in NIce. Five minutes from the beach and the train, best hotel if you plan to travel a little bit during your stay.

Great experience! The hotel was clean, had just been renovated, and the bathroom was a decent size, given the small washrooms in most parts of France. Close to all of the major shopping areas, restaurants and other sites in Nice. Hotel staff were very helpful and all spoke English, which was a huge bonus for us! Actually, they spoke about seven languages - amazing. Would go back to this hotel.

We had a really good time in Nice. Sometimes too many reviews can add to confusion so just go and enjoy. You will not be disappointed. Lots to see and do ( culture, social, history, shopping) and all within easy walking distance or excellent local transport to get around if you want to venture further afield. Lots of eateries in the centre but venture further away for quality and cheaper food. Would recommend La Cantine de Lulu on rue Alberti. Hotel Nice Riviera is very well located to experience Nice. Promenade and old town are essential and unmissable. Monaco by train (quicker) or bus offers good coastal scenery.

good hotel, great location, lovely staff, very helpful.

What a great hotel, an excellent find. We chose this hotel partly because of the reviews of the other travellers on your site. There is always a wariness of what to expect though, but I have to say the reviews were pretty spot on. We found ALL the staff at the hotel to be very polite and very helpful. Breakfast was continental, a large amount to choose from that was freshly replaced frequently. Jardin Albert 1 gardens were being re generated when we visited, and closed off which was a shame, but from what we could see its going to be amazing when completed. The road train is a good idea to take, it will give you an idea as to the location of most points of interest within the town.

I had some misgivings about this hotel before checking in because it is inexpensive and it doesn't appear on recommended hotel lists in Nice, that I'm aware of. I was pleasantly surprised. The location was great - in the center of downtown, across from a great shopping area, and a short walk from the beach promenade. The hotel sits on a small side street just off one of Nice's main north-south streets (Ave. Jean Medicin). This street is traffic-free, except for city trams connecting to the train station and other areas. A nice neighborhood, with a good restauarant next to the hotel. I learned the hotel has been refurbished, and it shows. At first glance the interior appears old, and the elevator very small. However, my room was very attractive, spacious (by European standards), and spotlessly clean. The hotel staff were always professional, courteous, and helpful. I'd definitely stay there again.

The hotel was well situated to be in a great walking area. Loved being able to walk in any direction and be at great places within minutes. The hotel was great and service team was very friendly and helpful!

We were a little concerned about this hotel after reading the reviews. Our experience was excellent, much to our relief. The location is fabulous, easy to get to, parking right around the corner. We were greeted warmly at the reception desk and they gave us an upgrade, a nice bonus, particularly as we are not frequent customers of this hotel chain. The room was quiet, clean and spacious. We also went to the bar for a drink, sat in the lovely patio area and were fed scrumptious tapas withbour wine. All in all a very pleasant stay, if we get back to Nice, we'd stay again.

First visit to this hotel and we were very pleased , it is on a great area very near to the beach also near the old town, it is also very good for eating out at night , will be back next year

In our last few trips to Nice we had stayed at the Beau Rivage hotel but despite it being wonderful there was an increasing problem with noise so we agreed to look for another hotel in Nice and having decided to stay at the Hotel Villa Victor Hugo were not disappointed. The hotel is well located in a good neighbourhood within an easy walk to the beach, shops and all other amenities. The hotel is stylish, the staff are friendly, our room was a good size, the bed was comfortable, great shower, free wi-fi and it was quiet so we had an undisturbed night's sleep - parfait! The hotel is relatively good value for money for an hotel of this quality in Nice and we will definitely stay here again.

Lovely 4 night stay with husband. Lovely front desk staff; very friendly and helpful. Small but clean and comfortable.

This is a very friendly small hotel in an excellent position for sightseeing, travelling, eating out and shopping. We had a 6 night stay and found the hotel excellent value for money. The staff are helpful and speak good English and the bedrooms are kept very clean. We had a lovely bathroom--modern and efficient and the added advantage of a small balcony where we could watch the world go by. For and extra 10 Euros the breakfast is more than adequate. Although it is situated above shops and on a busy street there was minimal noise and once through the outer doors it is exactly the same as being in any small hotel within a city. Definitely would return.

The hotel Staff was very friendly, and spoke English very well. The room was clean, it is very well located to the beach, old Nice, and all types of resturants.

Such a nice and clean hotel in a perfect location, close to the beach and good train links to Cannes/Monaco/Italy. Friendly staff

Amazing location. Very spacious and clean rooms. The staff was helpful and courteous. A great value in Nice!

Location in relation to beach, restaurants, shops was excellent but unfortunately the hotel is very run down - the 3 stars must all be for its location. If this was a superior double, I dread to think what a standard double was like. It is badly needing redecorated, refurbished nevermind more thoroughly cleaned. Shower room in particular didn't look fresh, shower was old and rusty, didn't look clean and leaked badly enough to warrant wrapping a towel round one of the connections to stop it from soaking the floor. Several requests to have it changed didn't make any difference. Breakfast room was unwelcoming and poorly decorated. Hotel didn't cope well serving breakfast when more rooms became occupied even though breakfast must have been very straightforward to provide - luckily the coffee was nice. 'Astro turf' effect grass at entrance and on balcony area made it look particularly tacky. Extractor fan or whatever it was on balcony looked dirty, took up a fair bit of room and sadly didn't add to the appearance. Staff very unsmiling and unwelcoming. Wasn't as if it was that cheap. Wouldn't go back unless it had a complete makeover.

I do feel that this hotel has received some extremely unfair and unjust criticism. For the price paid and the location we found it more than adequate. The linen was changed every day, a fridge in the room and air-conditioning. Some of the decor was a little tired but it was homely and comfortable. It is a question of expectations and previous experiences. We live in the Bath and you will spend at least double rates for similar facilities.
