10/10 Excellent

Great location close to the train station and still walkable to other areas like the old town. Beds were very comfortable and loved that my room had a little balcony. Staff were very friendly and breakfast was good.
Jan, 4-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Great Hotel! We stayed there for one night after our train ride from Paris to Nice Ville. Super walkable from the Nice Ville train station and a very lovely staff. Definitely would recommend, our bathroom was a little small but totally doable for one night.

Staff was fantastic to deal with. Unfortunately the garden area in the back was under some renovations so we couldn’t partake in that space but the hotel itself was gorgeous.
Mike, 3-night trip

Highly Recommend.

Great hotel. Everyone was nice-Concierge, Dining Room & cleaning. 2 minute walk to train station to visit the entire Riviera. Shops and restaurants & attractions all within walking distance in Nice. Smaller, clean and eco-friendly hotel. Breakfast was the same every day but varied options. Thanks for an enjoyable stay!

YASUSHI, 4-night trip

2/10 Terrible

Terrible front desk staff, raised issues multiple times regarding not having AC during a heatwave and was told by 3 different people that an “electrician” was coming to help. Initially offered another room however they said hotel was booked when asked - was forced to stay an additional night given the late hour of notification until we checked into another hotel.
Harsha, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Beautiful building, my room was nicely decorated too, with a small balcony to enjoy the sun. In the front of the hotel is a small garden, where you can enjoy a free coffee or tea.But most importantly the amazing staff! So friendly, helpful, and they obviously love their job! The hotel is also well located, close to the train station, and a 10 minute walk to the beach. I will come back!
