Stopover in Nice.

Centre of Nice, short walk to the promenade, welcoming hotel with complimentary water and coffee available in reception. Would have given 5 starts but shower was very awkward to use at end of bath in tiny room. No hotel parking and car parks in centre are 30+ euros a day.

The Grimaldi was an excellent hotel for the one night stay we planned for Nice. Just 12 minutes easy walk from Nice Ville station, we were greeted by very pleasant staff with an offer for free coffee which we needed after our train journey. The room was excellent. Very comfortable bed, very clean room and bathroom and easy access via the old fashioned lift. Super quiet at night. We slept well. Breakfast was more than adequate. Better than many hotels and just the right selection of hot and cold, sweet and savory for our needs. On our departure, we were sent our way by the super cheerful Ellen who is a model of perfect hospitality. We would stay again and recommend to anyone coming to Nice.

Op zes dagen dat we verbleven is onze kamer amper schoongemaakt. De schoonmaak service kwam wel telkens de kamer binnen om te kuisen tewijl er duidelijk een tag met ' do not disturb' aan de deur hing. Erg hinderlijk. Dus dat kan zeker beter.

Skuffende

Vi bodde på et gammelt rom i nederste etasje («Classic»). Jeg var skuffet over standarden på rommet og syns prisen vi betalte var for høy i forhold til det vi fikk. Det beste med oppholdet var complimentary kaffe, te og vann, og at teen var av god kvalitet. Beliggenheten er fin med kort vei til det meste.
