There isn't a shower door so the bathroom floor can get pretty wet.

Great location! The balcony looks right onto the perfect blue sea, the apartment is light and airy and spacious. It is located right in the middle of the Old Town which is always very busy and can be a little noisy in the evenings but nothing too bad. I would not recommend stocking up on groceries at any of the little shops in the immediate area as they are very expensive, walk into town and you'll find Carrefour, MonoPrix and several other places you can get food and drink at much more reasonable prices. Madame Vallet was very helpful and made sure we had good supplies of coffee (very important). It wasn't cheap but when we booked it we didn't realise that the Rugby World Cup would be taking place making all local accommodation more expensive than usual. However I still think it was value for money and we really enjoyed staying there.

Could have had door bell answered quicker, we entered building when another resident opened the door Manager took ages to come to foyer despite phoning several times No drying rack in room for washing Decent wine glasses should be a must also

Location perfect

Unfortunately, and as always, photos are misleading, and you end up paying over 400$ for a night, the price you pay for 5 Star Hotel in Nice, for a 3 star apartment worthing exactly the half. The photos don't show real views....

Our only qualm was the shower head didn’t stay up properly however this is easily fixed and we just wedged it in place.

The apartment was well located within the busy area of the old town, the port was within walking distance and the beach was a stone throw away. There was also great access to buses, trams and trains. The apartment was so clean and decorated very quirky. It was exactly how the pictures were advertised. Plenty of space for a couple. All facilities were included, including beach towels. The staff was really friendly upon arrival and super quick in accessing the property. Lovely view of the old town. The stair case up to the apartment is stunning!

Could be a difficult location for light sleepers - on several nights we were awakened by people playing football and loud music on the promenade from 2-4am.

Truly outstanding location!

could be a little noisy later in the night

excellent location, so close to the sea , restaurants and bars

Having seen the pictures, we brought our own bedding. I'm glad we did this. There is nothing bad about their bedding, it's just very simple.

Excellent location. Quaint little French apartment. It looks just as the pictures posted. Strange array of furnishings, but that made it unique. It was clean and had everything we needed.

The view and location are perfect, the building is lovely

I guess we are not used to small double beds, but we were able to use both beds provided and overcame this easily. If you're staying for a while, buy toilet paper. Two rolls is not really enough for a whole week.

The location of the Palais is the best thing about it. Just 1 minute to the beach and all the buzz of Nice old town, and yet very quiet once inside. It is charming inside, but please note that it is old, from the 1700s, and probably needs a renovation. Some apartments may be renovated, we stayed in Dufy 5, very top roof room. The kitchen was convenient, as was the washing machine. Madam Vallet is a delightful lady, but practice your French. Great to have beach towels provided too - that was very handy.

A few extras in kitchen would have been welcome (salt, pepper, paper towels, scissors)

What a really lovely and charming spot! This is a historic building where Napoleon stayed. The entrance of the « palais » is beautiful; the painted ceilings and staircase grandiose. This is a bright and colourful « room with a (sea)view », with cosy wooden floors and is nicely decorated. The bed and pillows were very confortable; the kitchenette was small but functional. Super location next to Opera and Salaya flower market.

The room was covered in dust. The amount of dust could trigger an allergic reaction. The property is not suitable for people who have allergies. The room had foul odour. Everything in the room was old. The bed was made to look antique by adding an old headboard; not attached to the bed but just leaning on the wall. It was said that the property had lift; my room was on the top floor and the lift did not reach there. The stair case to reach the top floor was dark, and there was no light. The rest of the stair case was also very, very dark. A proper flashlight or mobile torch is needed to access stairs. The lift was so narrow and scary. It was said that toiletries and essential articles would be provided- yes there was half a roll of toilet paper on the holder and that was it. No additional toilet paper was provided.

Location was excellent. All windows were open to the beach and the view was magnificent.

There were no linen for the second bed.

Outstanding view at the Sea and Rivera from the balcony. 1800's vibe of decorations and design.

The furniture was pretty bad. Five hard chairs and a sort of bed that had to double as a couch. The view was great but it couldn't be seen at seating level so you had to stand out to look out the window.

The location was good and the building in which the apartment was in, was beautiful. The host was a very nice lady.

Everything. The view. The apartment itself. And of course, the genuinely helpful and friendly staff. Perfection.

The apartment is in dire need of renovation - shabby paintwork, plaster coming off walls and some evidence of water intrusion. The beds were not comfortable and the window shutters were too shabby to be of any use as a form of curtain.

The location of the property is the main plus point

Stayed in June 2023

The shower could be a bit bigger.

The location is unbeatable. Being located in the heart of the Nice old town on the main reataurant street 50 meters from the beach can’t get much better. The room was gorgeous, spacious and clean. Staff was extremely friendly and helpful. We just loved every minute we spent there.

Apart from an excellent location, everything else about our stay in this property was awful. First the apartment we were given looks NOTHING like the one in the photo. The owner was very difficult to get hold of. She was 1 hour late for check in. The Wi-Fi didn’t work all week despite someone coming to ‘fix it’. We were given old crusty white towels and there was stained bedsheets. The beds were tiny and of poor quality. The wind rattled the shutters all night most nights and the neighbors were very noisy.Such a waste of money and so disappointing!

The location is very good
