We liked the straight direction to the Nice Ville Train station. Go down a couple blocks and the beach is a straight direction as well.

The location of the Hotel is great! Just walk a short distance to the beach. And close to train station, transport to the airport and buses around the Nice city. Staff in this hotel are very friendly and helpful. The room is clean and very comfortable for three nights staying. Will definitely visit it again!

Hotel Busby is a good 3* hotel in a good location (in walking distance of the train station, beach and the old town). The beds were comfortable and there was plenty of hot water. The continental breakfast was plentiful and in a very pleasant dining room. Our room was cleaned daily and the staff were all very courteous.

Two wonderful days in Nice.
A very nice hotel with pleasant and helpful staff. The hotel is very convenient from travel to and from the airport and it is only a short walk to the beaches and to the very nice old town. The hotel, for us, was perfectly located and very comfortable.

We had a great stay at Hotel Busby. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming. A special thank you to the man who worked at reception—he was especially helpful and went out of his way to make sure we had everything we needed.
We really appreciated the little touches, like having umbrellas and beach items available—it made things so much easier. The breakfast was great, with fresh, hot croissants every morning, and everything was very clean and well organized.
We would absolutely stay here again. Highly recommended!
