Wszystko super!
Pros:

Pobyt w tym hotelu spełnił w pełni moje oczekiwania. Największym atutem obiektu jest jego rewelacyjne położenie – wszędzie można dojść pieszo, zarówno do Promenady Anglików, jak i do komunikacji miejskiej oraz ogromnej liczby restauracji i kawiarni w okolicy.

Drugim ogromnym plusem jest fantastyczny, bardzo przyjazny i zawsze pomocny personel. Obsługa jest uśmiechnięta i zaangażowana, co zdecydowanie podnosi komfort pobytu i robi świetne wrażenie.

Pokoje były codziennie sprzątane, ręczniki regularnie wymieniane. Sam pokój nie należy do największych, ale jest bardzo czysty i funkcjonalny – idealny na krótki pobyt. Dodatkowym atutem jest przyjemny taras, na którym można wieczorem usiąść i odpocząć.

Podsumowując – same superlatywy. Jeżeli ponownie wybiorę się do Nicei, z pewnością zatrzymam się w tym hotelu!:-)

Pros:

The location was perfect. A short walk from restaurants, the old town the beach and the train station. The room itself was a great size and the bed was really comfortable and the view from the window / balcony was excellent. When I arrived the staff were extremely friendly, and helpful and gave me plenty of handy tips about what restaurants were good and what attractions to visit.

Cons:

The bathroom was really small. Not really a criticism, as it did the job admirably, but it was pretty tight in there hahaha.

・部屋が清潔でケアされている
・バルコニーが気分転換に良い
・全体的にかわいらしい
・元々繁華街なので、うるさいかもと思い耳栓持参したのですが、正解でした。

Cons:

・ベッドのスプリングが強めなのか、夫が寝返りを打つとその振動が伝わってきて、何度か夜目が覚めてしまいました。

Nice short Stay
Pros:

Location was excellent, room extremely clean and Barbara at reception was very helpful. The room was practical and enough space for a short stay and surprisingly quiet at night other than some bin collections which was amazing for such a busy location. Best reached from the airport by number 12 bus and this is very convenient 5 minute walk away from Congress bus stop although from the airport it is from near Terminal 1 and we landed at Terminal 2 so needed to get a free Tram number 2 hop between terminals. The selling point is the location as it is right in the restaurant hub, near the lovely patisserie Armand and the promenade is just a 5 minute walk with the old town around 10 - 15 minutes away. I selected the hotel based on reviews and I can see how it gets a score over 8 due to the prices of other hotels in Nice, as it offers an affordable package and it is clearly marked 2 star which is probably a bit harsh but see the limitations below. We had breakfast one morning served by the wonderful Barbara and it was lovely but with Armand Patisserie a few doors down and good value it is a good alternative and it is top notch for soaking up the atmosphere. Train station was about a 15-20 minute walk and we used this to go to St Paul's Vence and 655 bus from Cagnes Sur Mer and that all worked well and there is another cheaper option of using the bus number 12 to CAP3000 and number 9 to Vence but apparently the 400 bus has stopped. The train line of course gives unlimited access to the coast another positive of the Hotel location. WiFi worked okay most times just occasional slow but not an issue.

Cons:

The room was on the 4th floor and I don't use lifts unless a last resort and the stairs was testing at first and I would not advise anyone with walking difficulties or claustrophobic. The stairs are steep and lift can only take 2 people or one with luggage but my wife was happy to use it and after 90000 steps in three days the stairs became fine for me as my fitness improved. The shower is incredibly tiny and I could actually believe some people might struggle to use it and the bath towels were smaller than what we are used to. The walk up the stairs isn't particularly inviting with marked walls and exposed wires and it needs a general tidy up but I assume that is for the landlord not the Hotel. I do like to keep abreast of the news and the only English speaking TV Channel (CNN news) didn't work which was a shame.
