Hotel de NiceEditor's Pick

EuroCheapo Review email this page print this page

Situated directly across from the Hôtel de Ville, between a café-lined pedestrian square and the busy rue de Rivoli, the two-star Hôtel de Nice provides the kind of fun and flamboyant décor that will delight those looking for something a bit eclectic.

The hotel's 23 rooms mix rich red-and-gold wallpaper, prints, hanging maps and heavy oak furniture. Massive drapes are pulled back with gold rope sashes and tassels. Rooms are air conditioned and equipped with satellite TV and double-paned windows. Corner rooms are the most spacious, although west-facing rooms open up to the picturesque square below.

The tiled baths, which tend to be a bit tight, have showers or tubs and a hair dryer.

The hallways are crammed with scenes from old Paris, and you're welcome to chill out in the delightfully gaudy sitting room on the first floor, which doubles as the breakfast room.

Breakfast is served for €8.
