Hyatt Regency Palais De La Méditerranée, Nice
Expert reviews
“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.”
“The Palais de la Méditerranée is a landmark hotel in France’s fifth city, commanding a prominent position on the Promenade des Anglais. Behind its 1920s façade sits a splendidly seamless five-star hotel that caters for international businessmen and wealthy holidaymakers alike.”

The Hyatt Regency in Nice is truly a gem in every sense. Its phenomenal location, right at the edge of the famous Promenade des Anglais, makes it the perfect spot for soaking up the sun and enjoying the stunning Riviera views. The atmosphere is sunny, elegant, and thoroughly enjoyable – where you instantly feel at ease. The service is outstanding, with a team that goes above and beyond to ensure every guest feels special. The hotel is phenomenal, offering a classic charm that perfectly complements its iconic location. While it’s starting to show some age, I’m confident that Hyatt will rise to the occasion and renovate this incredible property to make it shine even brighter. It’s a true jewel, and with some polish, it will undoubtedly become even more spectacular. It was highly recommended for anyone visiting Nice!

We cannot wait to stay again!
We were greeted by the lovely Sara, she was so friendly, welcoming and helpful. We loved everything about the property. The beds were so comfortable, the sheets were soft, the towels were thick and soft. The list goes on and on.

Excellent location, staff and service excellent, mountain room view was smaller than we had hoped
Location is excellent being close to the beach, an easy walk from the centre of the city and well connected by pubic transport to the airport and the rest of the city. Hotel is very high quality, staff exceptional and quality of linen and cleaning service very high. Breakfast is exceptional
although it had a nice view of the city and mountain, and a small terrace with seats, the room was pretty average, and less than we had hoped for an expensive hotel
20 October 2024
great but pricey
wonderful property, staff, location, restaurant and facilities! we were only there one night, wish we hadn't been so zonked from 18 hrs of flying so we could have used the facilities! Hopefully next time!
expensive for a small room with a smoky terrace above an astroturf roof and other rooms and balconies, described as 'city view.' would prefer a smoke free floor. drinks service on outside terrace bar was very slow. and smoky, wish there had been a non-smoking section

Size of Room and poor view into internal courtyard. Most expensive drinks but worth it for incredible setting of courtyard and service.

Extremely pleasant.
Location.
On the Friday evening there was a very, VERY loud disco occurring in a neighbouring casino that went on until 0200 and kept us awake. It is not the hotel’s fault but there was no “by the way” notice or communication that there was a risk of having disturbed sleep that night.

Fine, but really overpriced because the lack of atmosphere
Concierge, staff in general, size of room, closeness to beach and boulevard
The decor of the rooms and hotel in general. Carpets, 50 shades of brown. Could be anyplace in the US. Seaview isn’t seaview but view of the arcade in front.

This was my first stay at a Hyatt, and I need to stay at Hyatts more!
Everything! We were so pleased with the professionalism, courtesy, and knowledge of everyone we met. We had housekeeping checking with us in the evening to make sure we had enough water and coffee supplies. The pool was clean and so enjoyable after a hot day.
Our room was a little short on space. That is my only complaint, and it is very minor obe.

Had a great experience at the hotel, the friendliest staff I have ever seen and service was 10/10. Even that amazing
Service was outstanding and staff were very friendly, attentive and helpful. Close to everything and a great location, probably the best in all of Nice.
Needs a little facelift

Position is #1 Nice rooms.
View of the Mediterranean would have been preferred
24 June 2024
A really nice stay
Its a lovely hotel with great staff, and a very nice breakfast.
The hotel restaurant was massively over-priced for very mediocre food in a very average environment.
21 June 2024
Enjoyable stay in Nice with great Promenade des Anglais views and Massena access
Breakfast variety. Friendliness of staff. Rooms are spacious. Location, location, location. Quick room service turnaround.
Hotel didn't inform me upon booking that a major event was happening with roads blocked which delayed my airport pick up when I left. The hotel must provide an information card for international tourists on sites to explore in the area and share other tips

First class in every respect, staff very attentive and courteous.
The breakfast buffet staff were unorganized and often confused about who was doing what. Was there a way to not have our bedding and towels cleaned every day? If there isn’t, they should implement that as a Green option.

Very good hotel with unrealised potential
Location is great and staff were very welcoming and helpful. Very good breakfast. Room spacious, clean and very comfortable
Given the fabulous position of the hotel on the promenade des Anglais, we were disappointed at the lack of communal space for guests to view the Promenade. Neither the reception area nor breakfast area on the third floor had a good view.
