Hôtel Excelsior by HappyCulture

Hôtel Excelsior is genuinely ideal for anyone’s city break in Nice. The staff are lovely, attentive, and will do their very best to assist you with any issues. The pool is delightful, a great place to unwind, and although we didn’t dine at the hotel, I have no doubt that the restaurant is also lovely. The hotel’s lift is relatively small, and not great for more than 2 people, but the stairs are clean, spacious, easy access, and very much part of the hotel’s hallways, not in a separate area. As for the rooms, they were simply perfect! We booked two separate rooms for a party of 4, and they were kind enough to position us perfectly next door to each other! We had two large beds, very comfortable, and no trouble for a great night’s sleep, a large and clean bathroom with a wonderful shower, and a super balcony with a great view of the life of the city below. We also had a mini fridge with price list, a safe, and a full wardrobe with hangers. Plenty of plug space and nice warm lights right by the beds as well. The rooms feel homely, with nice art and warmth, but still a touch of luxury. The location couldn’t be more perfect. Literally a stone’s throw away from Nice-Ville station, and a very walkable 20 minutes from Old Nice, the loveliest area of the city, and the beaches. Not far at all from the tram line to the airport either, and the station has a car hire centre right next door. I can’t recommend Hôtel Excelsior enough for any Côte d’Azur break, we’ll be back for sure!

A decent hotel in an extremely convenient location. Good size rooms and friendly and helpful staff.

Our full-day group tour was cancelled owing to some logistics issues but the front desk staff person when we checked-in was a BIG BIG help to us. He did 2 key things that I truly appreciate and am thankful for 1. He immediately offered to arrange tours via alternate vendors and although everyone was full, I give him credit for at least trying 2. He suggested "Plan B" to help us still do some sightseeing and went out of the way to hand draw a map of key places and walkways in Cannes and Monaco to help us do meaningful sightseeing. He also guided us to stay away from Ezes given the extreme heat wave and we appreciate that

Amazing staff so helpful.
