Staff was fantastic to deal with. Unfortunately the garden area in the back was under some renovations so we couldn’t partake in that space but the hotel itself was gorgeous.

Beautiful building, my room was nicely decorated too, with a small balcony to enjoy the sun. In the front of the hotel is a small garden, where you can enjoy a free coffee or tea.But most importantly the amazing staff! So friendly, helpful, and they obviously love their job! The hotel is also well located, close to the train station, and a 10 minute walk to the beach. I will come back!

Overall a nice place to stay in Nice

Convenient location. Nice room. Ok bathroom. Good breakfast. Nice touch with coffee and cookies throughout the day. Should add decaffeinated coffee to their menu. Safe in the room didn't work. Helpful staff.

I recently stayed at Hotel Excelsior Nice, and it was a fantastic experience. This boutique hotel has a unique and quirky charm, and its location is ideal – just a 2-minute walk from Nice-Ville Station and perfectly situated between the old town and the new town. From the moment we arrived, the entire team was outstanding – always polite, friendly, and incredibly helpful. However, I must give special recognition to Angel, who is truly an asset to the hotel. His hospitality, communication skills, and knowledge were exceptional. He was caring, attentive, and went above and beyond to make our stay memorable and enjoyable. The daily breakfast was fresh, delicious, and offered a great variety, setting us up perfectly for the day ahead. I highly recommend Hotel Excelsior Nice and will definitely be returning. A wonderful experience from start to finish.

Your hotel had a unique vibe and we loved all the extras that were provided. The area and being to walk to the Promenade and feel safe was a plus. Also the train station was walking distance which was a Big Plus!! Enjoyed our stay and loved the Decor!

Hotel is clean although no bedside table and worst of all NO INTERNET CONNECTION. STAFF very friendly and helpful. Breakfast is ok as long as you dont stay for more than 3 days as it is repetitive . Cappuccino was great.
