Fast check in even at 2030 hours. Room was good size, plenty of room. One negative, the room does not have storage for your personal items. A desk is provided but we used it for our snacks, a small frig is available. It’s only a short 10 minute walk to the beach area, you will pass plenty of restaurants along the way. Breakfast was good selection of meats, cheese, fruits, cereal. I would stay again. A thank you to the manager for all his time and information. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/21616ea3-990b-4c46-9eb9-b75ec5854332-1755544063035.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/726ead7e-0a08-451f-b0df-8dd33b2f965e-1755544065288.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/1727dc6b-459f-435d-b727-a39675abbe1e-1755544064394.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/69150180-f7b0-4987-ad0c-60ca89e6a447-1755544064678.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### timothy Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Fritz May 15, 2025 Liked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities Near railway station, close to pedestrian zone ##### Fritz Stayed 3 nights in May 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Yuyang Nov 20, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Convenient location and just steps away from the Nice Central Station. ##### Yuyang Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller May 2, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Highly Recommend.

Smaller, clean and eco-friendly hotel. Breakfast was the same every day but varied options. Thanks for an enjoyable stay! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 6 nights in Apr 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### sam Oct 11, 2025 Liked: Staff & service, amenities ⭐️⭐️⭐️½ (3.5 stars) We stayed at Hôtel Excelsior by HappyCulture for five nights. The location is a big plus — just a few minutes’ walk from the Nice-Ville train station, making it convenient for day trips to nearby destinations like Èze or Monte Carlo. The hotel also provides a complimentary filtered water and coffee station, which is a thoughtful touch. The front desk staff were consistently helpful and professional throughout our stay. However, the room setup left much to be desired. The “king-size” bed was actually two single mattresses joined together, making it impossible to get a good night’s sleep. There was no electrical outlet in the bathroom, and the room design included several unusable millwork cavities instead of practical closet space. The door closers on rooms were extremely loud, often startling us when others exited. Lastly, the breakfast quality didn’t justify its price. Overall, a convenient choice for train travelers with courteous staff, but with several comfort and design issues that hold it back from being a truly enjoyable stay. ##### sam Stayed 5 nights in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ping Feb 15, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great hotel to stay with children.
