The property is in the middle of everything-the train station at 10 min walk as well as major points of interest at 10-15 min walking distance.

Be sure to ask where your room is located. My room was in a part of the hotel not serviced by elevator, so I had to carry my suitcase up a flight of winding stairs.

Good location
Very good location close to metro station, good breakfast selection. Triple room was pretty small, bathroom needed attention, grout discoloured, silicone mouldy and fittings loose.

Good location for exploring Nice
Very central and easy check in. Room quite small but managed. Curtain torn and some mould in the bathroom which needs addressing. Air conditioning good and relatively quiet. Breakfast was simple but enough to set us up for a day of exploring beautiful Nice. Only real negative was the advice the reception staff gave in regards to getting a bus to Villefrance-sur-mer; marked the map in entirely the wrong place which led to us wasting 45 minutes searching and walking to get the correct bus stop.

Liked: Staff & service
The location was the best part about this property; a short walk to the beach and Old Nice, plus near plenty of good restaurants (and gelato). The lobby of the hotel is nice, but the rooms need a major refresh. Bare walls, weird shower, and generally not very clean. I was traveling with a colleague, and mosquitos somehow made it into both of our rooms and we woke up with bites on our faces. My colleague also found someone's thong in his close (true story). The last negative was that the breakfast was pretty low quality. Not a terrible place to stay, but probably won't be going back.

Great location
This hotel is in a great location near the train station and the beach (both about 10 minutes away). Also, one of the main shopping streets is at the top of the road, and there are some great places to eat nearby. The rooms are clean and comfortable, and there is a good choice for breakfast. I would definitely stay there again and I would recommend it.

This hotel is in a perfect location for both modern shops and a stroll to the Old Town. The tram from the airport is a few yards away as is another tram to the station. Staff are friendly helpful and efficient. Very good breakfast selection for a daily charge. Clean and well presented.

Hotel Boreal is an excellent value for a family. The hotel is located near restaurants, shopping, and the beach. My trip was made special by the accommodations at the hotel. First, when our plans changed in Paris they accommodated us to arrive one day earlier. The room has wood flooring instead of carpeting, which helps the cleanliness. The staff is friendly, serviceable, and multilingual. In our case, they provided laundry service, replenished the coffee/tea every day, arranged our taxi to the airport, and arranged to send me a hat that was left behind after we left. I couldn't be more pleased with my experience at the hotel. We have only good memories of our trip to Nice.

Clean, affordable and great location
The rooms have wood floors. I much prefer wood instead of carpet. The bed is comfortable but the pillows are not. The shower enclosure does not cover enough to keep water from splashing all over the floor. At least I cleaned the floor every time we showered. The location is convenient to everything in Nice. The staff is very helpful and friendly.

Located just around the corner from where the new no2 tram into Nice terminates. So it's only 1€50 and about 15 mins from directly outside the airport doors. 3* and very French in appearance. So don't expect slick and moden. However do expect a warm welcome, lift or stairs to every floor, good aircon and tea/coffee in your room. Comfortable bed and very clean all round. Expected a continental b'fast. So lovely scrambled eggs and bacon were a bonus. Short walks to the old town, seafront, or main train station for a trip to Monaco.

Lovely Hotel
Hotel Boreal was a nice hotel in a great location. The hotel itself is nice with rooms on the smaller side, but enough space for us as a couple. There are a few restaurants just as you step outside the hotel, or you can walk up and down Jean-Médecin with plenty to eat. Also, you can easily walk to the Promenade des Anglais in about 10 minutes where you can find plenty to do. The staff was also nice and helpful with information.

Great hotel
Hotel was perfect for our long weekend, beds were super comfortable and air conditioning was great! We had a little balcony so we got to enjoy our morning coffee sitting out. Even though our room was at the front of the hotel it was very quiet, there wasn't any loud noise from the road. The beach is less than 10mins walk, 2mins walk from the main shopping street. So much choice in café's and restaurants all close to the hotel. Great hotel for exploring a beautiful city!

Perfect for a short break in Nice, easy walking distance of the main train station, the promenade and the delights of 'old town' Nice. Staff were very friendly and the room whist not massive was in good repair and spotlessly clean as we're all the public areas. Couldn't ask for more from a 3* hotel.
