Westminster Hotel & Spa Nice
All lovely, I had asked for a sea view and hoped for a balcony but think I Had one of the rooms with sea view and no balcony. The hotel was lovely, breakfast good, bed comfy, receptionists were friendly.

Hôtel Vacances Bleues Le Royal
Everything about it...location, quality, cleanliness, staff (except for midfle age male concierge who seemed quite condescending). There is something very special about falling asleep to the sounds of the sea. Loved looking at the incredible Mediterranean from our bed.

Fairmont Monte Carlo
The room was spacious and comfortable. All the staff I met were lovely and helpful. There were some on site construction works happening, and I thought perhaps for the drilling to start before 9 in the morning was a little bit disruptive to guests.
