Boscolo Nice

Wonderful stay here for a few nights in September. We had a room facing Victor Hugo with a balcony but didn’t hear much of the street noise during the night. The entire stay was wonderful and the stand out has to be the staff. We were welcomed by Mariam at reception who was absolutely wonderful - she took us to our room where we were given a welcome bottle of Prosecco waiting for us in an ice bucket in the room along with chocolates which was a lovely touch. The room was great - very spacious with exceptionally cool air con. The location was fantastic - within easy walking distance of the main eating areas - bars etc and about 20 mins to the old town - as two females we felt very comfortable walking around in the evening though we obviously stuck to the busier streets. The rooftop pool was lovely - well heated and not busy at all ( we stayed closer to end of season which suited us as we avoided the crowds) Again, huge thanks to the staff on checking out who waited with us outside for our Uber (we didn’t ask for this) - he just wanted to ensure that we got in the taxi safely without us needing to carry our luggage - when we said that we were happy to wait and carry our own luggage he said “no, we do anything and everything for our clients” - again, very nice touch and a huge focus on customer service. A massive thank you to the wonderful staff at this great hotel - we will be recommending you and when we return to Nice, we will be booking with you again. Thanks again.

First, the biggest issue on my mind as i check out of this hotel… there is literally no meaningful air conditioning in this hotel. We tried two different rooms, and the front desk said that they cannot lower the temperature below 21C (70F) which normally would sound okay except I dont think it was even maintaining that temperature. Nights were hot, and opening the windows meant LOUD noise from the cars in the street. Five nights, two room changes and not a single good night’s rest. The Pros: 1) This hotel is in an excellent location on a safe looking street and walking distance to all key areas. 2) Very good breakfast spread. 3) Clean, nice lobby and friendly staff. I would not stay here again because of the air conditioning issue.

The temperature was not able to be controlled in the room. The rooms were either too hot or too cold. It was also difficult to control the water temperature in the shower. Barking dogs were allowed in the restaurant. Do not eat at Angelos Restaurant. The prices are much too expensive for the food and they charged 9 euros for still water.

The good: Fantastic location - Literally exit the tram station at Jean Medicine and it's right next to you. Whatever you do, do not taxi from the airport. Tram is quicker and €10 return (potentially cheaper, Google it!). Disembark at Jean Medicine and head for Exit 4 (Victor Hugo). Great service - Staff were always friendly, and the room was cleaned and turned down. Our room itself was spacious and clean. We got upgraded to deluxe so were well happy with that! The pool/spa/gym was top drawer. Everything as it should be. The bad: Drinks prices were eye-watering! Same with food prices. Find yourself somewhere nearby to eat breakfast. The rooftop pool/bar was not setup for the number of guests. It was pretty shoddy up there tbh. And it closed at 6:30. Why?! Much better would have been to drink on the roof rather than on the main road. The ugly: Our view was horrendous! Despite the upgrade, we looked out onto ventilation chutes and a grubby roof. The outside drinks area looked out onto a main road. When you're paying top-dollar for drinks, it hardly felt relaxing of 5 stars! Conclusion: Fabulous location, but I'd avoid eating or drinking there, and find your happy chill place somewhere else. You're not far from the hubbub so you have plenty of choice!

Beautiful hotel with great amenities. Very friendly staff and super helpful. The food on the roof too was lovely and the spa was very relaxing. The room was beautiful and felt luxurious. We had a view onto the front of the hotel which was lovely ans not noisy at all. Slept like a baby. I’d visit again absolutely and would recommend to anyone.
