    Perhaps consider offering optional shuttle into town?

    We truly enjoyed our stay at this hidden gem of a hotel! We loved the quiet and calmness of being out of the major tourist area. We would awake each morning to the birds and the amazing smell of orange blossoms. It is a lovely boutique hotel with an old world European ambiance. However, the hotel is up on the hillside, and it is about a 20 minute walk down to the old town. The walk up is about 20-30 min depending on the route you choose. In the beginning, I wasn't too happy with the walk. But, I quickly came around and enjoyed the "stroll" down into town. We definitely got our steps in! The rooms are comfortable, charming and thoughtfully designed, but a bit on the small side. We had a ground floor garden room with our own private outdoor area. Although we didn't have a view, we appreciated the private outdoor space. Also, if we wanted to enjoy the hotel grounds, we could just walk right out of back sliding glass doors. The breakfast was wonderful with a lot of choices. Very friendly, courteous and professional staff. Bar is open until 11:00 and they do have a limited menu for room service. Would we stay here again? Absolutely!

    There’s nothing I did not like about this property

    this hotel is anabsolute toolbox. It is beautifully maintained and we were lucky enough to have room 202 with an amazing terrace. The staff is exceptional, and it is nestled among birds. You hear, birds singing all the time with the windows open.

    Even as a picky person I couldn't find anything we disliked at all.

    I can only speak in superlatives about our stay and the hotel itself. The room was superb, the location and most importantly the staff were outstanding. Everyone was extremely welcoming, and went above and beyond to make sure we have the best experience possible. We did book breakfast as well, which was absolutely amazing, huge selection of fresh and tasty options.

    Our room was right off the lobby. Noisy. Booking.com rooms seem to all be ADA rooms. I had requested parking, but it had been given away. The parking was street parking many blocks away.

    The hotel is located on the hillside in Nice. Beautiful views. Daniel was amazing, he was like a personal ambassador for the city of Nice. So welcoming.

    Absolutely nothing at all!

    Every member of staff was friendly and polite. The front desk staff always had recommendations and were happy to chat out our plans and what we were doing. The night staff member also delightful, when we came back super late after the rugby in Marseilles! We enjoyed the walk up the hill away from town, but some people might not be of the same opinion?? For us, it made it a very quiet, relaxing hotel.

    It was not a significant issue for us, but the hotel is in an elevated position and maybe not suited for anyone with mobility problems.

    Beautiful hotel in a really lovely quiet and peaceful area of Nice. The hotel staff were all helpful, smart, and really friendly. The rooms were well appointed with good facilities. Handily located for Nice centre and the train station.

The bathrooms are slightly on the small size but that wasn’t a problem at all. The staff were lovely and extremely helpful. We had a lovely stay and look forward to returning in the future.
