"The room was clean. The hotel is centrally located, walking distance to Promenade des Anglais, restaurants, shops, main sights. The staff was exceptionally helpful, accommodating, very welcoming, very friendly. Breakfast was good - omelet, boiled egg, fruits, bread, veggies, fruit juices, coffee and tea. Good to eat for 2 days but not on a third day of the same items. Good value for the money."
"A wonderful old Grand Hotel. Nicely located just across from the ocean boardwalk and with many restaurants within easy walking distance. The rooms are nicely updated, clean and a nice size. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The hotel common areas retain 5heir vintage look and feel. The ocean-facing room we had has panoramic views of the water and is incredibly bright."
"Beautiful historic hotel right on Promenade Anglais and beach. Exceptionally friendly and helpful staff. Wonderful bar and restaurant on site. Perfect place to stay in Nice. We had the King suite which was truly wonderful with balcony overlooking the sea. You won't regret staying here. Close to many historic sites in Nice."
"It didn't start well. We weren't given the room we paid for and a complaint to hotels.com yielded nothing.
We were put in a tiny room at the front of the hotel which was very noisy all night. (We paid to be in the quieter back of the hotel in a bigger room).
The immediate area is a little rough round the edges, but a short walk of 5 minutes brings you into better areas and plenty of eating choices.
As I said the room was tiny. The bathroom was reasonably modern but all a bit worn out.
The bed was OK. AC worked when it felt like it and it was impossible to properly close and lock the window. The TV only had French channels - none of the listed international channels were available.
The staff were all pretty sullen. English was not at all well understood and only grudgingly spoken.
The hotel bar had a few bottles of coke and some nameless spirits. Nobody used it!
All in all, it's difficult to recommend. The location is OK, once you get away from the immediate dirty, noisy surroundings."
"We did not use the restaurant or have breakfast. Check in and out was easy and quick. Room although small was sufficient for a few nights accommodation. Easy walk to all areas of Nice."
