Expert reviews

Frommers review:

“Open since 2022, Yelo resides on Nice’s grandest boulevard. Minimalist bedrooms are blessed with fine linen, natural light, and ultra-fast WiFi, while some overlook the buzzing street below. And there’s a big sofa-filled communal lounge full of co-working guests.”

Very good

Central location but in a very busy area. No noise from room though. Good shower.

The entry is not as nice as photos. Breakfast was worst I’ve seen, in a room with no ventilation or air conditioning with food sweating from the heat. Coffee machine didn’t work.

Brilliant stay at Yelo. Highly recommended.

We really loved the location and Nina the receptionist; she was excellent. Please praise. The anniversary decorations were excellent in the room. Thank you to the staff. The under bed storage was good, the walk in shower and tasteful room decor. Brilliant stay for anniversary.

For guest who stay for at least a week, the room floor needs to swept twice during the stay. It would be good if the side of the bed near the window matched the other side with a small side shelf for when charging a phone.

Nice Room. City/ buildings view. Location was great. The room didn’t feel clean and had multiple bug bites on the legs after sleeping. Also I ran out of shampoo and conditioner and no one replaced them. But good stay. Sunny room

Can be cleaner. Better room service needed. But the overall stay and experience is expected for a 4 star hotel

Nice location, nice bathroom, air conditioning was not effective enough, the staff seemed not happy to be there.

It’s nicely located.

The staff could have been more helpful, we asked if they could change the bed sheets once, they said it was not possible because we were only staying for four nights. The breakfast wasn’t anything special.

Really enjoyable stay!

Everything about our stay was great! The room and bed was comfortable and the staff was always friendly and willing to help. The location is close to the train station and a tram stop. As well as a monoprix.

The hotel is located on a main high street shopping road and near a train station so it can be a bit loud but the windows blocked most of the noise. We were on the 3rd floor so if you are really sensitive to noise, I would recommend staying on the 3rd or above floor.

Location and the fact that they have amenities to pick whenever you want (water, dishes, coffee, etc)

Room is very small and they didn’t clean everyday. Also, very expensive to park if you’re going with a car

Great location at a great price, pity about the endless emails.

Great location near the station and fairly close to the tram from the airport. I thought the price was excellent bearing in mind the fantastic location.

The endless communications from Sonder asking me to check in beforehand with a broken link to do it. I finally managed to do it just to stop the reminders but they kept coming. Must have been 20 at least. For goodness sake get it sorted.

Fabulous

Despite the small size, the room was really lovely and all you need for a short trip. Very clean with really comfortable bed and pillows, good shower and a surprising amount of storage. Staff was very friendly and helpful. The area wasn't amazing but really convenient for taking the train up and down the coast and a short walk down to the water. I wasn't expecting it to be as nice as it was actually. I was staying for work but would stay again for sure.

It got pretty hot in the room and the A/C wasn't strong enough to totally mitigate but not the end of the world

Pleasant

The hotel is in a good location, just a short walk from the train station, making it easy to explore different areas. The beach front is about a 20-minute walk away, which is very convenient. The staff were friendly and approachable. The room was clean and modern, and the hotel was easy to find.

The room was quite tiny — fine for a short stay, but for a week it felt difficult to store our belongings comfortably. Although the hotel listed a wardrobe, we only found three hangers above the coffee machine. The location is on a busy street with a lot of noise late into the evening. We’re not light sleepers, but we were woken up a few times from outside noise. There were a few minor faults in the room, which we reported to reception; they said cleaning staff would address them, but nothing was fixed during our stay. Some parts of the hotel looked a bit worn.

Great location, ver comfortable rooms!!

The rooms were comfortable and the location was amazing! It is near all the shops and restaurants and the walk to Old Nice is not far away! Close to a to a train station so if you want to go anywhere else it’s great!!

Sometimes the air conditioning wasn’t working but they would get it fixed for you quickly or accommodate you!!

They don't have desks in rooms, and the area for teleworking behind their breakfast spot is tiny and was overcrowded as all guests ended up using it.

Lovely, clean room with friendly staff and a good central location

Front of house staff were lovely. Room was nice and modern and enough space to move around in. Appreciated that we could help ourselves to fresh towels if needed. Central location in Nice, not too far from the train station or the beach.

No fault of the hotel’s but the street the hotel is based on occasionally felt a bit unsafe. The hotel isn’t very obvious when looking for it so many some extra signage that stands out a bit more might be helpful?

Great location, quality design that works well for working travellers or those that want to stay connected. It’s in the

Good design and value for money in a great location. Great use of space and natural light. Lots of outlets and mirrors. Bed was comfortable and WiFi was super fast.

Main issues weren’t the fault of the hotel. The sound of the trams early in the morning, sticky cobblestones all around the hotel from the many nearby fast food restaurants. Also there weren’t enough wall hooks but this is something we’ve come across in nearly all similar class hotels across Europe. There isn’t anywhere to easily hang long wet towels near the shower. The check-in is also fairly late although the late check-out options explain that.

Great location and nice place to stay if not facing the busy street and heating system works

The location was great as I was travelling by train and I love walking. The staff were really kind and helpful. The place was clean and the bathroom is decent size

The room on the 5th floor was really noisy, sound insulation really poor, no heating adjustment was possible and my room was like a sauna.

Boutique bedrooms and superior staff at surprisingly low prizes

Staying across 3 nights with my elderly parents to reminisce with them about S. France. Excellent new rooms. Efficient lift and brilliant staff. Not sure why the free coffee in the lounge area was switched off after breakfast vs what the website says.

everything really exceptional, nice service, the only minus is the uncomfortable bed:(

location, decor, communal kitchenette (microwave, glasses, plates, water), friendly service.

the mattress on our bed was ruined. I mean, it had indentations on the sides, like little holes. They're probably where people sit, but it made it impossible to sleep comfortably. I didn't report it earlier because changing the room would have caused too much confusion during my 2-day stay.

Great location and friendly staff

The hotel has great location but even though it’s on a busy street it was quiet inside. The staff on the reception was very friendly and helpful. The room had tea and coffee facilities. The bed was very comfortable. Iv stayed there for eight nights and the size of the room was fine for me. If there were two people I would look for a bigger room.

Very comfortable and clean bed.
