Top Old Town Hotel Reviews

Le Meridien Nice

10/10 Excellent

"fantastic for service, beach access and everything!"

Campanile PRIME - Nice Airport

10/10 Excellent

"The location was fantastic, from terminal 1 Nice airport it was only a few minutes walk. If you arrive at terminal 2, get the free tram 1 stop to terminal 1 and it’s directly across the road. It’s 4 min walk to the train station St Augustine cote de azur which is the main track to Nice, Canne , Antibes , Menton The beds are extremely comfortable and the room was very clean. I would definitely stay there again"

Hotel Beau Rivage

8/10 Good

"This hotel is very conveniently located if you want to stroll along the Promenade or explore Old Nice, and the staff are very kind and helpful, however, the hotel is not particularly accessible. If you have any mobility issues, I would not recommend this hotel, as you need to go up a few steps to get to the lift, and said lift doesn't have room for mobility aids. The shower is also very difficult to climb into with its high tub walls. That being said, if you do not have any mobility/access issues, then this is a great hotel and would be a good option!"
