Hôtel La Villa Nice Victor Hugo

10/10 Excellent

"Great location, super close to the train station and shopping/ dining options "

Hôtel Vacances Bleues Le Royal

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was courteous and my room had a view of the ocean. The sunrise and sunsets were stunning. The only cons were a few chairs looked outdated and the room attendant did not vacuum my croissant crumbs, but no biggy. Everything else was wonderful."
