8.8/10 Excellent! (397 reviews)

Great location, many restaurants nearby, short walk to beach and promenade. Our room was clean, well maintained and spacious enough for our family of 4. Staff were friendly and responsive to any queries we had. Special mention to two attentive staff members who proactively brought me a large bag of ice upon noticing I had an injured knee (sadly, I didn’t catch their names)! This was a good base location for a visit to Nice.
