The hotel has been remodeled on the second floor and part of the first. The staff was very attentive and ready to help at any occasion. This was my first time staying in this hotel and I can't wait to go back soon. The breakfast in the garden (or in the room) was just great. The coffee, and especially the bread and croissant , were delicious. Even though you are on one of the main streets, it is very quiet at night.

This establishment is very run down. Windows don't close properly and paint is peeling off the walls. Furniture is tatty. The communal toilets (not all rooms are fully en-suite) are dirty and constantly running out of toilet paper. Rooms facing the Promenade des Anglais are very noisy, though this is not the fault of the hotel.

We were stuck in this dump for 3 nights and the place felt very neglected and unloved. It was the worse place i can remember staying in in 42 years of travelling in France. If someone was prepared to invest a lot of money in the property and take the trouble to manage it properly it could make a decent hotel. My advice would be give this place a miss unless you are desperate

Friendly, helpful staff, great location, great views, BUT the lobby is dirty and uncared for: dirty dishes on the patio tables for the 24 hours we were there, cob webs full of dead flies in the light fixtures,....and our room, (room 8): no hot water, rotting baseboards, 1 foot squares of peeling paint on the walls and over our heads as we laid in bed, mildew in the shower, large pieces of peeling wallpaper, dirty and water stained indoor/outdoor carpet and no hair dryer although they told me they did. We had reserved for 2 nights, but after one night, we couldn't wait to get out!! We're not picky, but this place was nasty.

I left a very valuable necklace in my room when I checked out. When I called the staff and was frantic they said they found it and it would be at the front desk! Talk about happy. For that alone I will give Villa Eden a great review. The best room is the one with the view of the water. Room 205 was large but the place needs a bit of an overhaul and some new paint but for the money and the location it is perfect. The bathroom was clean and it was a great shower, and the beds were clean and comfortable too. The place must have been grand in its day with its high ceilings and large windows. If you are not into steps you may wish to think about another location with a lift but it wasn’t too bad. I would have liked a history lesson on the Russian Countess who lived there but it was a neat experience just thinking about it. It was perfect getting up in the morning and walking across the street and either go running or swimming. The hotel is right on the bus line, which will take you to the airport or into town. Also, there is a Taxi stand right around the corner and the casinos are about six blocks down the street. A nice walk and you will pass many choices of brasseries to stop and get a bite to eat or something to drink. I really did enjoy my stay and will go back again!
