Top Nice Hotel Reviews

Westminster Hotel & Spa Nice

10/10 Excellent

"Great view at Bar"

Hotel Du Centre, un hotel AMMI

6/10 Okay

"Great location and the staff were friendly and helpful throughout our stay. However, the room was quite small, and the bathroom wasn’t really suitable for three adults and one child. There was also an unpleasant smell in the room, which I assume was coming from the drains. The staff did try to resolve the issue, but unfortunately the smell lingered for most of the trip. The hotel can also be quite noisy due to street traffic and the church bells ringing on the hour throughout the night, so I’d recommend bringing earplugs. It’s also worth noting that breakfast nearby costs around 9 euros for just a drink and croissant, which can quickly add up for a family of four. Overall, despite the good location and helpful staff, I probably wouldn’t choose to stay here again."

Anantara Plaza Nice Hotel - A Leading Hotel of the World

8/10 Good

"Breakfast was served in the 6th floor of the hotel which had a magnificent view of the Mediterranean. It was a beautiful setting. Unfortunately the service did not measure up to the setting. I had finished my buffet breakfast before I got my Americano coffee. We had dinner at the same location that evening and it was very slow in getting our drinks as well. Other than that, the service was excellent. The concierge was outstanding. But for a 5 star hotel you expect more efficient service in their dining facilities."
