  • 4.6 Le Negresco Nice

    Hotel Le Negresco, Nice

    Frommers

    “For more than a century, the Negresco has been Nice’s most iconic hotel. Its flamingo-pink dome crowns the promenade des Anglais, its Belle Epoque facade turned towards the sea. Guestrooms—a mix of Louis XIV antiques and state-of-the-art bathrooms—have hosted each era’s most noted celebrities, from the Beatles and Salvador Dalí to Michael Jackson.”

  • 4.3 Hotel La Perouse Nice

    Hotel La Perouse, Nice

    Fodors

    “This secret treasure cuts into the cliff (an elevator takes you up to reception), and the best rooms—including Raoul Dufy’s favorite—not only have views of the azure sea, they also look down into an intimate garden dotted with lemon trees. All rooms have a breezy, bright inviting style that makes you think twice about leaving them for a drink at the patio bar or a dip in the cliff-side pool.”

  • 4.3 Hotel Villa Victoria Nice

    Hotel Villa Victoria, Nice

    New York Times

    “Following a full renovation in 2013, Villa Victoria sports colorful rooms with funky wallpapers and bright fabrics. But the main draw is the courtyard garden.”

    Featured in New York Times’ 36 Hours in Nice, France.

  • 4.2 Le Windsor Nice

    Hotel Le Windsor, Nice

    Lonely Planet

    “Don’t be fooled by the staid stone exterior: inside, owner Odile Redolfi has enlisted the collective creativity of several well-known artists to make each of the 57 rooms uniquely appealing. Some are frescoed and others are adorned with experimental chandeliers or photographic murals.”

  • 4.2 Hotel Suisse Nice

    Hôtel Suisse, Nice

    Fodors

    “Charging modest prices for a spectacular view from the top end of the seafront, where the promenade winds around to the port, the acclaimed Hôtel Suisse far outclasses most other hotels in this price range, although be prepared for a small reception area and a très petit elevator.”

  • 4.2 Hyatt Regency Nice

    Hyatt Regency Palais De La Méditerranée, Nice

    Lonely Planet

    “This opulent edifice is spectacularly recessed behind the massive pillars of its majestic 1929 art-deco façade. Rooms are well-appointed and all have balconies, though it’s worth noting that the sea views tend to be obstructed by the façade’s pillars. It all feels indulgently upscale, with starchy tablecloths and starchy service to match.”

  • 4.2 Yelo Jean Médecin

    Yelo Jean Médecin, Nice

    Frommers

    “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.”

  • 4.1 Nice Garden Hotel

    Garden Hotel, Nice

    Lonely Planet

    “Behind heavy iron gates hides this gem: the nine beautifully appointed rooms – the work of the exquisite Marion – are a subtle blend of old and new and overlook a delightful garden with a glorious orange tree. Amazingly, all this charm and peacefulness is just two blocks from the promenade.”

  • 4.1 Hôtel Massena Nice

    Hotel Massena, Nice

    New York Times

    “The plush Hotel Massena, which occupies an ornate 1906 Beaux Arts building, has also benefited from an ambitious recent renovation. The lobby exudes bachelor-pad chic — red velvet chairs, black leather couches, abundant mirrors — while the sleek rooms mix Mediterranean colors with black-and-white photos of classic cinema and music legends.”

    Featured in New York Times’ 36 Hours in Nice, France.

  • 4.0 Boscolo Hotel Nice

    Boscolo Exedra Hotel, Nice

    Lonely Planet

    “Crusted with curlicues, swashes and balconies, this magnificent belle-époque mansion looks like the architectural equivalent of a wedding cake. Despite the old-world exterior, inside is one of Nice’s sexiest, smartest design hotels.”
