“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.”
“The blink-and-you’ll-miss-it entrance belies the charm of this miniature hotel that packs a punch above its two-star rating. Budget-conscious travellers will be won over by its convenient location a few blocks from the beach, but even more by the walled garden where roses cascade over pergolas.”

Great, and will definitely return.
The beautiful garden was a great spot to take a break from the hot weather and enjoy some down time. The location is great if you don't want to be in the middle of the tourist zone but close enough that you can reach everything easily on foot. We could also borrow sun umbrellas so avoided having to buy something that we would throw away before leaving. There was also fresh water and fruit placed in the communal area for all to enjoy during the day. Very nice touches and lovely very helpful staff.

A pleasant surprise with a beautiful garden in the calm but also in the center of Nice.
The staff were very friendly and they also offered to keep our luggage for us so we could walk through town before heading to the airport. The garden was gorgeous as well.
Just as a recommendation—If the keys could be changed to digital cards, it would make it convenient for people sharing a room and quieter for people coming and going.

Good location, zero service
central but quiet location
no staff present. This is basically an Air BnB with codes to enter the hotel. There were no staff there at any time during my stay, except for the cleaning lady.
no breakfast before 8.30.

Ok hotel, partially horrible staff
Property is totally fine and clean. The bed is comfy.
Everything was ok and one girl from the staff was super nice. When I came back to get my luggage post check out I asked if I can quickly use the toilet, the lady told me no that there was no toilet. When I asked where the staff would go she said they would go to the guests rooms if there is vacancy and that right no all rooms were full. First of all I am pretty sure that is a lie. It sounds insane to me that the staff would have no toilet. Secondly the room I checked out of was empty as the key was hanging on the hook. I think that’s totally unacceptable. That kind of behavior is ridiculous.

Okay
Size of the room, would have liked to have been offered to have
breakfast in the garden, as it looked nice.
The overwhelming smell of the cleaning products. The pictures of breakfast were misleading

Other Nice hotels
Hotel Le Windsor, Nice
Lonely Planet + 2 more“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.”
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.”
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.
Hôtel Suisse, Nice
Fodors + 1 more“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.”
