Hôtel Vacances Bleues Le Royal
Chambre vue sur la mer était magnifique. Toutefois en laissant les portes ouvertes le bruit de la Promenade des Anglais m'a dérangé. Une fois les portes fermées le silence est parfait. Petit déjeuner délicieux et assez complet. Proximité du vieux Nice est un point très positif. Je recommande.

Radisson Blu Hotel, Nice
Slow check in ancross all desks. Left/checked luggage took a long time. No bellman to do this slowed the whole process down. Very few staff at lobby bar.

Room not as illustrated on Hotels.com. listing implied partial sea view...our room did not have this. Although described as City View pi tures on listing had sea view. Very misleading
