    Air con was dodgy, gave off warm air. We stayed in March and had to have the balcony doors open because the room got stuffy. Busy street below so hard to sleep in.

    Good location, close to train station. Decent-sized room with a double balcony. Friendly, helpful staff. Free coffee in reception.

    The breakfast room is rather small and the offer is a bit limited. I had booked a single room which is indeed quite small and the air conditioning was not working well. As I travelled in March, that was not an issue.

    Very kind and helpful staff at the reception desk. The water fountain with the bottles at disposal and the coffee machine are a nice feature. The location next to the train station is very convenient.

    We really enjoyed our breakfast each morning. A lovely selection of cereals, cheeses, fresh fruit salad, juices, bakery items, hot food etc. The staff were very helpful and friendly. The bedroom was a little on the small size but was adequate, the bed was very comfortable and the room was quiet. The hotel is located across the road from the station where we travelled on day trips to Cannes etc. Buses and tram 2 minutes from hotel servicing Monaco and other destinations. Tram can also be boarded at airport to reach hotel. Hotel Villa Bougainville is non-corporate and therefore the interior design is unique. The building is of art deco structure with lift to all floors and the colour scheme is blue/green throughout which was quite vibrant and gave the hotel a quirky pleasant theme. Complementary filtered water and hot drinks were also offered.

    Dishes at breakast sometimes need to be exchanged because not perfectly washed. Also in WC at check-in: I saw that it was cleaned, but somebodies hair (maybe of a personal) was there. I also managed to cut a finger staying there for 2 nights. Late evening went to reception but they did not have any basic plaster to patch it. I would expect any hotel to have some basic medicine box for emergency cases or cases like mine.

    Nice is not a too big city. In 20 minutes you can walk downtown. Should you travel to Monaco or somewhere else by train, the train station is very close. Even though the rooms are not new, the colours and the style of the room hides it very well. It looked nice and I felt comfortable there. A breakfast was good enough.

    The level of room service provided was below average. On two of the five nights that we stayed at the hotel, we requested that they provided us with a broom and/or hoover as although we had requested our rooms to be tidied these wasn’t carried out to an expected standard. Both times when we made the request to have someone hoover the room after room service had come round and made the beds, the cleaning staff had already left so this was not possible, which meant that I effectively cleaned the room for myself. The housekeepers also removed the broom from our room the following morning yet had made no attempt to hoover or sweep the room, which I found odd as they cleaned around visible hair and dust on the floor. The room itself is very dusty, in particular under the bed has not been hoovered in quite a while and there was artwork in the room that had very thick layers of dust within them (I can provide photos)

    The staff were very friendly.

    * Relatively small rooms * View from many of the rooms are the train station / train tracks. * Bit noisy - elevator / doors being shut / water moving through the pipes.

    * Great location: next to the main train station, if you are planning trips from Nice. Close to the main shopping street, about 20 min to the promenade. * Free coffee / tea in the lobby all day. * Nice, upbeat interior. * Comfortable beds. * Mini fridge and kettle in the room. * Reliable wifi. * 35ish minutes to get to / from the airport (depending on exact time of day)

    For two nights, the hotel's guests included a group of younger Chinese who did not respect house rules, they gathered in the corridor and rooms after midnight... but the reception reacted and resolved the situation

    Considering the purpose of my trip and the use of the room exclusively for sleeping, I can say that everything was good, especially the proximity to the train station suited me. The breakfast buffet exceeded my expectations. From the first contact upon arrival, they "bought" me to visit them again if the opportunity/need arises...

    The only minor inconvenience was the small elevator, so if you have a lot of luggage it could be a problem.

    The staff left the best impression! Every person working at the reception was outstanding and efficient. The rooms were incredibly clean, and the beds were very comfortable. A great touch to the experience was the free water and coffee/hot chocolate in the lobby. Definitely recommend!

    The road and rail noise can be a bit of a bother so I would advise travelling with ear plugs.

    This was my second trip to this hotel, I had previously traveled a month before with my adult son. On that occasion I decided I wouldn’t return as the noise from the road and station disturbed me. Anyway a month later, the price was half of what it had been and I was in Nice, this time Solo. I opted for what I knew and I’m glad I did. It’s not perfect but there are plus points. Staff were very helpful when I needed a room change. My mobility can be a bit dodge and the first room I was put in, I knew I would trip on the bathroom step. Staff were so kind and helpful when I asked to move and for that I’m grateful. This time I didn’t have breakfast although I think 10e is a good price, I was actually on the beach before sunlight so I didn’t have the option anyway. I like the fact the hotel is close to the station although I wish the tram was closer. By the station there is a really good salad place ( I’m vegan and finding food can be a mission). I will probably stay here again and I will be back to Nice soon. I scattered my mums ashes in Nice in October so now I have to keep visiting.

    Beautiful rooms, but not soundproof at all, pet charge a bit too much

    Unfortunately the rooms are not soundproof at all. The other guests were always speaking in the hall, the doors are very loud (apparently quite common in France), and it all sounded really loud. Maybe asking the guest to keep that in mind and try to keep quiet in the halls would be a good idea. I was a bit disappointed that paper cups were offered, instead of actual cups, and for some reason all the coffee pods were decaf 🤷‍♀️ I was really glad that they accepted my small dog, but I was charged 15 Euro/night (I was warned right after the reservation). It is the highest dog fee I've paid so far. I do not think it's really justifiable or reasonable.

    Very close to the train station. The rooms are beautiful, I was mesmerized when I got in.
