Expert reviews
“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.
“The grand apricot façade of this central townhouse recalls the days when British aristocrats used to winter here on the Côte d’Azur. One of Hotel Villa Victoria’s best-kept secrets is the glorious garden where you can relax in a hammock shaded by bright bougainvillea and fragrant jasmine.”

Excellent location. Nice and cozy hotel. Very nice and helpful staff. Easy to get from the airport. Close to train station. Nice garden behind the hotel. Good starting point for any tourist activities around.

PEACEFUL, EASILY ACCESSIBLE, ON A LARGE SPACIOUS STREET, IN A SAFE AREA.
STAYED WITH MY FAMILY IN A ROOM FOR 3 PEOPLE IN THE LAST WEEK OF JANUARY. THE LOCATION OF THE HOTEL IS GREAT. CLOSE TO RESTAURANTS, CAFES, MAIN SHOPPING STREET AND THE SEASIDE. IT IS BEST TO PARK THE CAR IN FRONT OF THE HOTEL. WE STAYED AT THE GROUND FLOOR, GARDEN VIEW WAS PEACEFUL.
THE SIZE OF THE BEDSIDE TABLE WAS SO SMALL FOR ME :))) BUT I AM SURE THAT IS BECAUSE OF MY STUFF:)) HAIR CONDITIONER CAN BE PUT IN THE SHOWER. THERE WAS HAIR SHAMPOO IN ONE BOTTLE AND BODY SOAP IN THE OTHER BOTTLE. AN ALTERNATIVE TO HAIR CONDITIONER WOULD BE BETTER. Topluluk Tarafından Doğrulandı simgesi

Beautiful hotel in a terrific location!
Arrived a little early but a room was ready. Had booked a deluxe double with street view (admittedly the gorgeous Blvd Victor Hugo) and was upgraded to a garden view room. So beautiful in the bright mornings from the little balcony and there are mature orange trees too. Terrific location and the hotel is in a Niçois bourgeois building. Really excellent hot/cold breakfast buffet, everything you could possibly want.
Can't think of anything to criticise!

good location, good price/performance ratio
+the hotel is within walking distance to the beach +In just 5 minutes you can reach numerous restaurants for dinner on foot +price/performance absolutely fine (We cannot give a rating for the in-house breakfast, as we always had breakfast in one of the numerous bakeries nearby.) +For the price, the room size is absolutely sufficient, but in our opinion one or two renovation measures could already be implemented. +The hotel has a very nice garden. I'm sure you can spend a very nice evening here in the summer.
-On booking.com, the hotel advertises its own parking spaces. In fact, there are a maximum of 5 parking spaces available in front of the hotel for the entire hotel. The hotel should definitely make this clearer, as you can only make a reservation request for a parking space after booking. -Furthermore, it should be noted that due to the lack of parking spaces, loading and unloading luggage from your own car is very inconvenient. It is actually not possible to park if the five hotel parking spaces are occupied. There is also a no parking zone in front of the hotel, and the driveway of the neighboring building is right next to it. -The hotel lift is very small and can no longer be described as modern. The luggage trolley barely fits in the lift. -/+If there are no parking spaces available at the hotel, you can park in the "Mozart Garage". We made use of this option and paid around EUR 90.00 for 4 days. (note: However, it should be noted that the parking spaces in this garage are very narrow. You should also avoid driving sports cars into this garage, as you will be stuck with the vehicle when driving in and out.) -On the second day we had to complain about room service because it had not arrived even at 3:30 p.m. We were pleased that we were compensated for this situation with a toiletry set, but this attempt was unfortunately marred by the general discontent of the staff. -In four days, no one managed to say "good morning" or "good evening". Even when we left, the receptionist didn't manage to wish us a "safe journey" home. That may sound a bit petty, but it's just the way it should be.

Satisfying stay, but expensive for the amenities offered at the price
-The location is very good, in a safe neighborhood and close to the Promenade -The biggest asset is the staff which has a very good level of customer service -The possibility to have parking at the hotel, even though is paid (20 euro)
The room is outdated, a lot of marks on the doors The ceiling was cracked , spiders at the corners of the room. Quite expensive- with parking and breakfast the price is too high for what it offers

We loved almost everything about this hotel and would definitely stay again.
Breakfast was excellent! Staff was friendly and very helpful. Garden and patio were wonderful.

Excellent hotel I would recommend to all.
The breakfast was excellent, The hotel clean and tidy. The staff very helpful as we had asked for a walk in shower not a bath due to my wife's disability. Not communicated to them but they changed our room on arrival.
Nothing.

It's a nice boutique hotel with a beautiful internal garden, could be much nicer with a small revamp and a nicer sta
The location is perfect, in a nice neighborhood, close to restaurants and beach but away from crowded areas. It has also a beautiful internal garden for breakfast.
The staff could definitely be nicer. The room is very basic, the bed mattress not too comfortable and the closets don't have doors. The room is outdated.

Fabulous
Style of curtains and colours (too much purple)
13 August 2024
Comfortable
Lovely location, Beautiful garden for cocktails and breakfast. Helpful staff. Comfortable bed.
Room rather small and the decor of beige and brown was uninspiring. For the sake of a few colourful cushions or a throw and maybe a proper wardrobe rather than a heavy brocade curtain.
12 August 2024
Pleasant
Great location, room very quiet despite being on the street side.
Room, hallways felt old - with slight smell of mold in the room. Carpets on the floor felt not hygienic.

A lovely boutique hotel with lovely gardens to sit and have a drink in the evening
We went for my husbands 50th birthday, I e-mailed ahead and requested a bottle of wine in the room with a message and it was displayed beautifully on a tray with flowers in the room upon arrival. Thank you
A little further walk from the old town than expected but overall good location

Stop off in Nice.
This was a stop off on our train trip to Italy. So we chose Hotel Villa Victoria as it was only 10 minutes walk to the Station, and also 10 minutes walk to the beach. The hotel also had a garden courtyard, which was a very nice place to have breakfast. Breakfast was very good, the usual bacon eggs, fruit and pastries etc. The room was quite small but comfortable and clean. The staff were very helpful.
Nothing.

Buffet breakfast good - fruit, cereals, breads, cold meats and cheeses, eggs and bacon, pastries, yoghurts, coffee and juices. Lovely garden.
Lighting in the bedroom was terrible ….. much too dark. No satellite TV.
