Ok but not up to a 4 star hotel standard.

Service was not good. Room was smelly and humid and even though online rooms were available they told us that they couldn’t change us. They only changed the day after and made people sleep in an unacceptable condition. They pretended to be nice but were completely uncooperative and found all kind of reasons for their actions. Unfortunately not up to the standards to be expected for a 4 star hotel.

This hotel is in a great location. Tram stop and underground stops nearby. 15 min walk to main train station. Lots of nice restaurants nearby and easy walk down to the sea front. The room was nice and clean. It was small but was fine just for us to sleep in and definitely worth the price. Desk staff were all bilingual (at least) and were helpful with every request. Minor fault: The doors and walls are quite thin so you can hear the cleaners and other guests occasionally. You can hear the trams also but these don’t run much at night. Bring ear plugs if you are a light sleeper.

This hotel was in a great location. Bed was comfortable. Staff was polite. It was tough dropping off our luggage as there is really no place to stop and parking is really far away. Other than the parking, our stay was wonderful here.

We enjoyed our stay at this hotel: the staff are helpful and the room, although not large, was very clean and comfortable. (A small suggestion: coffee making facilities in the bedrooms would be most welcome. There is a coffee machine in the vestibule, charging €2 a time. Perhaps a little bit cheeky!) The beauty of this hotel is that it is right in the centre, close to seafront and the main streets, with lots of lovely places to eat and good bars. Even so, it is not noisy. I would recommend this hotel for someone looking for a good reasonable place from which to explore Nice.

Very nice, but a/c is misleading

Nice small hotel, clean and a great location. They are overdoing the ECO friendliness. Hotel has AC but they would not turn it below 26C/ 79F in the room. Having a heat wave in southern France and sweating all day, there was no exemption. Hard to fall asleep at night. We changed hotels after 3 nights.

Bad hotel. Rooms far too hot and sun lit

This is not 4 star hotel. 3 stars at best. Issues: Light floods into the room because they unwisely have glass panels in the bathroom door…and the bathroom has huge uncovered windows. So the result is the main room is flooded with bright light early in the morning. Horrible. The AC does nothing. It is central AC and my room was 26C all the time. I asked the front desk staff for help to make sure I was working the AC controls in the room okay (I maxed out the AC), and they said since it was after hours no one could help me with this…not even the front desk people. Unacceptable.
