Located in the centre of Nice, just a 3-minute walk from the Promenade des Anglais, Arome Hotel offers air-conditioned rooms with free WiFi. Nice Ville Train Station is 1 km away and Old Nice is a 15-minute walk from the hotel.

Very cosy experience! The owners, Mr and Mrs Fabio, were very hospitable, while another young male staff member helped us a lot. They speak French, Italian, English. Every morning they hung kosher on the door; were kind enough to print our boarding passes; and the coffee machine in the room worked very well! The hotel is very close to the coast, so we were able to see a beautiful sunrise every day by leaving the house only five minutes early. The owner's wife patiently explained the sights of Nice and recommended delicious restaurants. Our few days in Nice were perfect because of you, and we hope to see you on our next visit!

The Hotel Villa Les Cygnes is a gem! Our room was large and we totally enjoyed the verranda! Bathroom was our own personal spa-like room. We opted for the breakfast of fresh bread and cheeses, eggs and yogurt most mornings. Our host, Nicholas, greeted us warmly each day and inquired about our plans for the day and made heplful recomendations. Would definitely stay here again!!

Located 500 metres from Nice Train Station, Hôtel Oasis is a non-smoking hotel offering air-conditioned guest rooms with satellite TV. The hotel has a bar and a garden with a patio area. Free WiFi is available throughout the property. Private parking is available on site, spaces are subject to availability and extra charges apply.

I can't say enough about our two-night stay! It was even easier to access from the train station than I had thought. Upon arrival, we were told we'd be in their second building which shares the same private courtyard as the original building - this is a new acquisition and gorgeously newly renovated. We were blown away by the faclities, the comfort of the bed, and the feeling of absolute comfort in this beautiful "oasis" as it is named. The breakfast was ample and varied, with anything we could have wanted!
