Such an authentic, timeless area of Nice which truly represents the french/ Italian influences. The buildings are beautiful and considering it is 'old town' we found it to be clean and well looked after (as opposed to other cities such as Gothic Quater Barcelona). There's lots of hidden shops and restaurants which aren't on the budget side but are very sweet and great for people watching. You could honestly get lost in the beauty of the small alleyways and streets.

This is where I like to spend time. The area is not huge, so you can wander and see almost all of it in a short amount of time. The streets are narrow, usually lacking traffic, so it is peaceful. Wonderful architecture, echoing the Italian era. And you can do some shopping or sit in a cafe.

Stunning city beauty beach and people so friendly . Felt very safe walking at night . Best Western Plus hotel on 3 Rue de Belgique ideally located in centre of city

We criss-crossed the old town many times, occasionally getting lost in the dozens of narrow streets. Such a lot to see, including museums, cafés, municipal buildings, music spots and more. It was the first sunny day for a while, so a lot of people about but never seemed that crowded. Could spend hours here .. and we did.

Love the old town, could walk around it for days without getting bored. Somewhere to stop off and grab lunch or enjoy a delicious glass of wine. Plenty of little shops to explore. A perfect way to waste a few hours or days.

Nice to just wander around the old town. Lots of places to eat and they are all very touristy. Prices seem to be pretty much the same everywhere. Best food and prices were in the side streets rather than in the main squares. The brocante fair was fun to wander around, a glorified car boot sale!

Hubby and I headed out of our hotel, to go to Old Town, to see what it was about. We had no plan, and just walked along the Boulevard, and turned up a street in the Old Town section. We came across Rue St. Francoise de Paule, and walked along that. To our surprise, we came across a large street sale of antiques, collectibles, and jewellery, which stretched quite aways. There were so many tables and booths to explore. The sale continued in another area, off that main street. This was held on a Monday, so not sure if it is held just on this day. My hubby went off exploring other streets and the Sea area, while I continued on this street, looking in the lovely 3 souvenir stores. I went back and forth amoungst them, to see what they offered first before buying, and to see if similar items were lesser at one or the other. I later headed along a street looking for lunch and came across the Fontaine du Soleil with the Apollo Statue, which was popular with picture-takers. I wished I had more time to see many more streets of Old Town!

Visiting the Old Town of Nice feels like stepping into a fairytale. The narrow streets are lined with beautiful architecture, including stunning baroque-style churches. I was particularly enchanted by Rosetti Square with Fenocchio ice-cream shop 🍦 & Saint Reparate cathedral. It’s the most charming place in the Old Town. A truly magical experience!

This is a great Old Town, overflowing with alleys packed with bars, restaurants, and local shops. Just start walking and choosing to go down an interesting walkway. Highly photogenic, we loved it. Things really pick up around 8:00 PM.

I stayed here in an air bnb, it was a great place to stay. There's lots of little shops and plenty of restaurants (I recommend L'epicerie Georges). There are also lots of coffee and ice cream places. The location is also great to travel, with Place Grimaldi close so easy access to the airport. Nice Ville station is around 25 minutes to walk to but is pleasant with a coffee and pastry. The promenade and market are also short walks. This is a great place to stay during your Nice holiday.
