Albert 1'er Hotel Nice, France
Hotel was super cute and clean and in a very excellent location. They are doing some construction (March 2026) and our bathroom seemed unfinished (no place to hang a hand towel or shelf for toiletries.) Even so, I highly recommend this hotel. We loved Nice!

Hotel Busby
Overall amazing experience, staff were welcoming and friendly, as well as helpful, the room was very clean and spacious with plenty of storage Including a mini fridge, we stayed as a couple but could easily suit a solo traveller or even a family, location was also ideal as it’s a short 10 min walk ...
