Hotel le Nice Etoile

Excellent location, super friendly and helpful staff, 10/10

Superb central location for exploring Nice and other places on the coast. 10 mins walk from hotel to beach and old town. Nice central train station 10 minutes walk for rail trips to Monaco, Villefrance and Cannes. Hotel staff are super friendly and helpful. Rooms are cleaned daily, bed linen and towels replaced. Overall really good value for money.

Friendly helpful staff.

Hotel basic but clean as was the bedroom which had a comfy bed ( less so the pillows). Very helpful polite staff: on check in quickly changing my room due the room safe not working. Also let me leave case on checkout for collection later. No breakfast to speak of: croissant and coffee. No lift. Good for main tram link to the shops/airport and beach ( also walkable in 20 minutes)

Nice hotel, not much around though. Near tram and train stations which is good.

The customer service desk was very friendly and helpful. We needed a lot of info about the area and requested several things and they were very accommodating. The location is great. The area can be a little noisy when garbage trucks come through at odd hours or people are on the street late at night, but ear plugs help. Overall the room was comfortable, but very tight in space. The pictures online look much bigger.

Pedro and his female college were the friendliest people we’ve met on our trip. Their dog, Tommy, was so well behaved and loves to play with his toys. Pedro steered us to Old Nice and the sunset overlook where we had a great time. I very much recommend this hotel.

A good deal for the area. Staff very friendly and helpful, definitely recommend.

The staffs were kind, caring, professional and pleasent.

The checkin was easy. All the staff were pleasant and answered all my questions. I had a room three floors up (no elevator). The A/C worked well. The TV had no English channels, but that was OK. The bathroom door was this flimsy wooden folding door; I was afraid to push it to full closure for fear it would fall down, which meant it was impossible to make the room dark for early mornings or naps. The continental breakfast was grim. The espresso machine that worked less and less each day to the point of only making hot chocolate. My main concern was a large dog that moved around the first floor. His owners no doubt know him to be friendly and good-natured, but he is an unfamiliar dog to me, and I prefer he be leashed or kept behind a gate (they have one but don’t use it). One morning around 7am, an alarm went off. There was no attempt to ensure that guests went downstairs, nor were guests told it was a false alarm. In fact I never received any communication before, during or after that explained the alarm. This is serious to me. Furthermore, as I was heading down the stairs (only I responded to the alarm), the dog was behind one of the doors on the stair landing. This time he was very agitated from the alarm and was snarling and barking. I knew they were about to open the door and felt very vulnerable on the stairs. I yelled “hold the dog” several times and got down the stairs. I do not want this kind of stress when I traveling.

The location was great and the staff were helpful and friendly. The online pictures were misleading. My room was in disrepair. The whole hotel smelled horribly of cigarette smoke, including the room. If I hadn’t already prepaid, I would have changed hotels.

Property location was great, right off the main strip, not far from the beaches or old nice. The air conditioning worked very well. The rooms were still dirty and had some damage to the door. We were moved to another room which wasnt much better. There were some small bugs. It was a very budget hotel. It would be fine if you are solo or arent expecting any amenities.

It was good for the price. Very central and very accommodating people. Hotel nice Etoile was very basic.

Room is quite compact. There is no remote for the TV or the heater. The receptionist keeps the remote for controlling the heater. They tried to turn on but it didn’t work so room was cold.

Friendly staff and hotel rooms was decent. Good for short trips.

Bring ear plugs, late night party seen and early workers. Had to leave the windows open because the management removed all of the remote controls for the AC. I realize we as Americans like AC and the Europeans may not but just because summer is over doesn’t mean it’s not warm. It was in the high 80’s which made the room much hotter.

Good choice for a short stay in Nice, a short walk from the tram stop, and very close to a major shopping centre. You need to be sure to remember the door code as reception is not 24 hours.

This is a very good and very centrally located hotel. If you value convenience and being 10-15 mins' walk to the beach, the old town and the station, then it's a very good option. Salma on reception deserves a special mention for her friendliness and attempts to address our questions and requests. Much appreciated- thank you, Salma! Room seemed to be recently refurbished but did lack some basics like hooks to hang towels. Aircon worked but WiFi didn't. Cleaners came daily, which was great, and when prompted they changed bedsheets. Within two minutes' walk you have a supermarket, a shopping centre, cafes and restaurants and the tram interchange giving easy access to most of Nice. All in all, Hotel Nice Etoile was very good value for money.

Great place and great staff. Friendly, clean, family friendly. Would stay here again in a heartbeat. Amazing!
