Close to aeroport, quiet location. We felt its cold in the room, and asked to switch off air-conditioner, cleaner was switching it on everyday, I felt that our message wasn’t heard, after long day out, I wish to comeback to comfy room and bed but didn’t feel like this.

We missed our train out of Nice and had to stay an extra night. This was a last minute booking. We could not have asked for a better hotel: walking distance from the airport, very easy and enjoyable check in, clean rooms and modern, excellent breakfast (where do they get that freshly baked bread??) and across the street from the Nice Saint-Augustin train station. Highly recommend.

Great location for travel in Nice

This was a one night stay as we had to catch an early flight. Fantastic hotel, had all we needed including a nice little breakfast to hold us over. Location is a black from the tram to the airport, and also a block from the train stop.

Very difficult to drive the area. Only one parking spot available next to the hotel that was used when we arrived. Only option was to use the parking of the hotel. It is free for 5min which is obviously not enough time to check in the hotel, so we had to pay parking just to get it in. Not cool to start with that sort adventure. Rest of stay was OK
