Blanc Sable Hôtel

I stayed on business for two nights while attending an event in the area. All very stressful, but the hotel provided a nice and peaceful sanctuary. My room was clean and spacious and the public areas were relaxing and decorated in a bright style. Breakfast was truly excellent and the staff friendly and helpful. I would have liked a kettle and instant coffee in the room, which is my particular want. And I wished there were more outlets outside as my laptop needed to be plugged in at all times. But those are very minor points and should not detract from an otherwise enjoyable stay.

This is a nicely renovated, thoughtfully decorated and owner-run hotel. Room was a decent size, air-conditioning not switched on, it seems. Modern bathroom. Mini fridges unfortunately only in rooms with balconies, which is odd. No free water. The elevator is tiny, two people with luggage barely fit. Friendly and accommodating owners. Did not try the breakfast. Pool was too cold in late September (not heated, it seems) and not always clean. Surprisingly, some plane noise even though Nice airport is not close. Spacious underground garage. The main drawback is the location in a cul-de-sac off a pretty busy and not very scenic through-road. There aren't many desirable restaurants within a ten-minute walk, and the shortest route to the beach and its promenade leads through a dirty and horribly smelly underpass below the train tracks. All other ways to the beach are 20 minutes or more to walk. This is a solid option if you have a car or scooter, or are ready to use Bolt/Uber every day, otherwise I would advise against it.

Very nice and well decorated hotel. Great breakfast with healthy choices. Very friendly owners.

Lovely hotel Fantastic relaxing stay

We recently stayed at Blanc Sable hotel. What a fabulous gem of a hotel this is. As soon as you walk through the door you feel relaxed and chilled out. The owners are so welcoming and helpful. The hotel is so well thought out with the owner , Gilles, artistic eye over everything. From the cushions, plates, pool towels, water bottles there is such details and consideration which for me was a joy. The owners really have put alot of care and thought into making this hotel very special. The breakfast is actually one of the best breakfasts I have ever had. Gilles sources the most incredible pastries and breads from local bakeries in Antibes and Valbonne along with cheeses, ham, jams and granola yoghurt pots. Even the drinks at the bar have been considered from kombucha iced tea drinks, rose wine and local liquor etc etc. The rooms are simply decorated but very effective. Everywhere in the hotel is air conditioned and the Wifi works well (very important with three teenage daughters!). Our car was safely parked in the garage under the hotel. The pool was a real treat and didn’t feel at all chlorinated, with comfy beds and plenty of hotel towels. Gilles and his wife were very helpful with knowledge about the area. We were genuinely sad to leave.
