“What a "nice" find!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 May 2012 NEW

We were referred by another hotel since they had no rooms. We were so glad they did. I very nice place to stay. Recently renovated the rooms were very nice, the bed were the most comfortable to had the entire trip. I wanted to take a pillow home they were so nice. The bathroom we had could use a little more fixing up. The pipes needed more paint and looking at other reviewers pictures we didn't have a vanity which would have been nice. The bathroom needed a trash can so I had to take one out of the bedroom. The breakfast was very good and they had a high tech coffee machine that did everything. Would definitely recommend this to anyone staying in Nice!

“perfect hotel in Vieux Nice”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 April 2012

Stayed here for three nights. The owners are incredibly friendly and the rooms, which have recently been renovated, are very comfortable. I would stay here again happily.

“Much improved, MUCH improved.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 April 2012

I have been staying in this hotel for the last 3 years very regularly. When I arrived a few days ago, I realized that the name had been changed and it had a new sense about it. When I came in, the owner and his wife explained how they had changed everything recently. The new hotel is wonderful. The beds are redone and extremely comfortable; rivaling my bed at home. Further, the lobby and breakfast area have been completely redone. The new staff is wonderful and responsive.

Currently, they are still working out some of the kinks from the renovations since they were very large. However, this does not detract from the experience of the hotel and I would HIGHLY recommend this hotel to anyone traveling to NIce on a budget.

“Wholesome people, premises need more improvement, amenities added”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 April 2012

The new name is Esprit d'Azur. It seems family-run, which is good, because they are there doing hands-on management. The service is good and efficient. I was told it was just newly renovated but the hallway leading to my room smelled stuffy. My room overlooked a roof of the building next door and farther, a taller one whose balcony formed an L with my window. Nothing was set up as deterrent to potential prowlers in the night who could just have gone into my room through the window. I could not shut it because I needed air circulation. There was no air-conditioning provided. The bathroom fixture has much to be desired. I had to sit inside the tub to shower, holding the shower head all the time. They provided soap and shampoo but no conditioner. Nevertheless, the hotel served my purpose as I was only in to sleep and have breakfast in the morning before doing what I set out to do in Nice.

Dear and valued Customer,

We would first like to thank you for taking the time to share your experience, and for writing this comment.
Such reviews are really important to us, as it allows us to keep improving our services and equipment.
As you noticed, our hotel is brand new. We opened it March 21th, only a few days before your stay. It tok us 4 monthes of hard work to refurbish and renovate the old hotel that was here before us. In the first days of opening, you are right, the typical smell of new carpets and paintings in hallways and common areas was noticeable, and we are sorry about that. Unfortuately nothing was to be done to avoid it, as it comes with the renovation work undertaken.
Regarding the balcony next to your rooms window, we truly thank you for bringing this matter to our attention, as we hadn’t noticed that before. You can be assured that appropriate actions will be taken immediately.
Regarding air conditioning, a single general unit is providing either cooling or warming. As most of our guests felt a bit cold at night with an average outside air temperature of 6°C, we thought warming would be more appropriate in this season.
Reagarding bathrooms then, we will replace the shower heads with models that can be attached higher on the wall.
Soap and shampoo provided comes from a local perfume factory, and are packed in cardboard boxes, instead of plastic bottles or bags making it a bit more eco-friendly.

Once more, we thank you for your confidence, and will be pleased to welcome you on your next trip to Nice !

Best regards

Cher client,

Nous vous remercions sincèrement pour le temps consacré à partager votre expérience.
C’est grâce à ces retours qu’il nous est possible de maintenir et de développer une qualité de service et d’équipements conformes à nos exigences et à vos attentes.

Toutes nos chambres, quelle que soit leur catégorie, bénéficient des mêmes équipements et éléments de décoration. C’est effectivement en fonction de leur taille qu’est définie leur appartenance à la catégorie « Standard » ou « Supérieure ». Le tarif proposé est établi en conséquence.

L’importance des travaux nécessaires à la rénovation et la remise aux normes de l’hôtel suite à son changement de propriétaires était telle que nous avons fait en sorte d’offrir à tous nos clients, dès notre ouverture (le 21 mars 2012) un maximum de confort et de prestations, malgré les délais très courts dont nous disposions. Ainsi, les pompes assurant le débit d’eau chaude dans les étages étant vieillissantes ont aujourd’hui été changées, permettant à tous de bénéficier d’un débit et d’une température d’eau adaptée.
Il faut savoir parfois faire confiance aux autres…, nous n’avons pas mis en place de système de limitation d’eau. Nous regrettons que vous ne nous ayez pas tenu informés du manque de pression et de chaleur , nous aurions pu faire intervenir la société de maintenance .
Nous tenons à préciser que nous n’avons pas de baignoire sabot dans notre hôtel et que toutes sont équipées d’une bonde . Si vous n’en avez pas eu , ce n’était pas parce qu’il avait été « confisqué« car cela ne fait pas partie de nos habitudes. Quel dommage que vous ne nous l’ayez pas signalé ! Notre équipe de Réception vous en aurait apporté une immédiatement !

Nous espérons avoir le plaisir de vous recevoir lors d’un prochain séjour à Nice, et vous remercions une nouvelle fois pour votre confiance.
