Hôtel Windsor  

The hotel is 5 minutes away from the city centre and the beach. It is very well located. The staff were nice and the hotel was very clean. The hotel is decorated in "futuristic" rooms with white-style rooms - I liked the rooms. I stayed for two weeks and had two different rooms.

Good location near the beach and not too far from restaurants. The rooms are unique and interesting - very artsy. Ours had a balcony, which was very nice. There is a beautiful garden area off the lobby - the photos don't do it justice.

The air conditioning was either not yet turned on or it was not very functional - I was hot at night - and the street below was too noisy to allow for the window to be left open. The room was small, but there was adequate storage.

the garden

Location and very clean

It was for short stays

The very helpfull and pleasant staff and the location. The balcony was an unexpected boon

It is a well designed and brilliantly placed Hotel with very good value for money a short stroll from the Place De l'Angais and the sea. Highly recommend it.

The decor of the rooms was really fun. The room was clean and spacious with a very comfortable bathroom. It was a very short walk to a lot of the dining/sightseeing as well as the train station.

The hotel is located just three blocks back from the Promenade des Anglais - so you have the convenience of the seafront location without the constant noise of what is essentially a [very beautiful] six lane highway. Visitors are greeted in a quirky, but comfortable foyer/reception area, and then 'transported' to their rooms in a tiny, but hilarious elevator - resembling the interior of a rocket - announcing '3-2-1, we have lift-off' (great fun for young kids, but you may have to choose between 'transporting' your kid(s), partner or your luggage as it is so small). Each room is individually designed - ranging from the 'clinical' (plain white with bright yellow line going across the walls, ceiling, and floor) to the warmly Romantic mediterranean look. Some rooms have typically Nicoise balconies overlooking a beautiful garden with swimming pool. Nice buffet breakfast served each morning, and there is also a small, reasonably priced restaurant and bar for those who may wish to dine in.

Some of the rooms, although quirky, may not be to everyone's taste, eg. The clinically white 'cube' with the bright (road-marking shade of) yellow angular stripe across the walls, floor and ceiling - complete with white furniture, bed, and bed linen. We were initially assigned this 'artistic' monstrosity, which was not the room which we actually booked. However, we were offered a choice of three others, so that was fine. Also, the bathroom facilities were quite out-dated - no extractor fan meant the room became very steamy and slippery; and the grouting/sealing around the bathroom furnishings was old, discolored, and not well maintained at all. Also, there was no bidet (in separate wc), wall-mounted shower (just the old telephone style thing attached to the bath taps), and no hand rail, slip mat etc beside bath. Complimentary toiletries were of the budget hotel variety and in short supply.

Staff good and friendly Hotel clean nice bar area and good food in restaurant Good location Lovely garden for city location

The staff was friendly, room was small but very nice and cleanI would recommend this hotel great value for price and very good location

Bathroom very small

I love the "quirky charm" - the bar, the elevator and the morning breakfast. We also loved the outdoor garden area, although the birds kept us up at night! It would be so much nicer if you had coffee in the rooms, a coffee pot with mugs. It would also be great if there were extra pillows in the rooms. The bathroom was very small, not what we are used to and the towels were a little on the thin side. But all in all we loved the hotel, especially the location and the price and we thought it was a great value...just would have like some coffee!!

We liked the convenience of being able to walk anywhere in the city from the hotel. It is perfectly situated. The hotel staff was excellent - they recommended restaurants to us that were great (Barracuda and Poco Loco) and they informed us about a guided tour to Monaco and even booked it for us. The staff was excellent and with us being American and not knowing any French, we were still treated very well and all of our needs were met with kindness. We very much appreciated that. We also loved the elevator and the pictures on the wall up the stairwell. Our room was not decorated - and I had read about the rooms and how many were wonderful so I was a bit disappointed in our room, but not much - like I said above, I would have loved to have been able to make coffee in the room.

The garden was peaceful and shaded and it was very nice that breakfast was served outside.

The swimming pool was small and in the shade most of the time and maybe needs a little maintenance.

The hotel is built and designed with great taste. It is obvious that the owners and administration are professionals and at the same time can think outside of the box. I loved the food, the friendliness of the personnel, the location, the way the room was designed, and the GARDEN!

The only thing I can think of mentioning was that the WiFi internet wouldn't always connect. Everything else was perfect.
