Mercure Hotels in Nice

The location was central, and the hotel was clean, but I expected a lot more for what I was paying. For example, the phone wasn’t connected, so each time I needed something, I had to go downstairs and speak with reception, the air conditioning was playing up, the breakfast was average, and not great if you are coeliac.

A good hotel for the price, excellent location – close to the tram stop from the airport. Of course, if you don't have much luggage. I especially liked the service. A wonderful Russian-speaking girl, Kristina, works at reception; she's very welcoming and helpful with all my questions. The chef is also excellent; he's in the dining room almost all the time, monitoring the availability and serving of dishes. A special plus for the hotel's staff. One of the pluses in the kitchen is the option to brew high-quality loose tea in a mug with a strainer. You rarely find this in less-than-luxury hotels. The rest of the food is also good, but minimal. Breakfast is also served on weekdays until 10:30, but by 10 they stop refilling and start clearing away food. You can always get water from the filter cooler downstairs in the lobby. The room is small, but well-designed and clean. There's a refrigerator, which is very convenient. There's a supermarket and a shopping street nearby; there are many expensive boutiques, but a little further away there are also standard mass-market options.

Excellent, very satisfied! The location is perfect, right on the Promenade des Anglais. The famous blue chairs are right outside the door when you step out – it's truly a central spot. It's hard not to love the sea in Nice, and if you can snag a sea-view room, definitely do it; the location is just unbeatable. Getting here from the airport is easy with the 12+ bus. Almost everywhere is reachable within a 10-minute walk. Try to avoid ground floor rooms, as they can be a bit noisy (there are restaurants in the alley next door), but rooms on the second floor and above are much better. The room itself is decent, quite modern compared to many older hotels around here. Breakfast is a bit simple and repetitive every day with limited options, but it’s convenient if you're in a hurry.
