Our flight landed before check in time. We were very pleased that the hotel had a luggage storage area to store our suitcases. By stowing our luggage, we could enjoy a nice day of sightseeing in the nearby area of our hotel.

The hotel is well situated in the center of Nice on a pedestrian section of the Avenue Jean Medicine therefor we were dropped ,by our taxi driver, away from the hotel and we had to carry our luggage and suitcases a significant distance. the room had no refrigerator. In the bathroom there were neither bars of soap nor shampoo.

Better than nice in Nice!
We loved this stay for so many reasons. So close to the train station, shops and just a short walk to great restaurants in Old Nice. Proximity to the beach and promenade was also a bonus. Our hotel room felt like you had entered a sound proof room. With padded walls and extremely comfortable beds, even facing the main street was quite quiet at night for sleeping. Plentiful hot water and a rain shower with great pressure was the icing on the cake. The room and bathroom/shower look like they have had a recent upgrade and it looks fantastic. The mini fridge, kettle and complementary coffee/tea in the room was also a nice touch. Breakfast was well worth the 13 euros. Hotel front desk staff were super helpful for all sorts or questions and recommendations. I would definitely stay here again!

We arrived from New York, after 9 hours flight and bad sleep. Two people sitting in reception small area, one busy with some bills and calculation on computer, other guy on the phone. Waited standing for a good two minutes may be three. Neither one acknowledged us or at least say something like: I will be with you shortly. Until I realized I am too polite and they are too ignorant. Then asked; can one of you give us our room. The one on the phone pointed he is busy on phone. Waited, after another minute or two, eventually bill calculating guy looked at us and asked for passports to give us room. As a 71 year old engineer, I though I am qualified to teach those ignorant people and said ; If i am on the phone at work and someone arrives and need me, I make the phone conversation short to address the client. You should do the same, it is common sense. May be hotel management should give them training. But, what if the bill calculating guy was the manager! This is a two star hotel by North American standard yet rated 4 star! Hotel pictures are deceptive. Reception area vey smal had a few stools, no sofa. Bathroom and shower was renovated and was good. Hotel location was close to Nice main rail station and was good. Bad customer service was my main concern.

Decent hotel to stay in for a short time, at a reasonable price. Location is great, situated on the main high street with plenty of shops, eateries and tram links. The staff were very friendly and helped us when we can. The room was satisfactory, particularly the bath tub! Unfortunately the Aircon didn't seem to work particularly well and the noise from the rear of the hotel was a bit annoying.
