Hotel de Nice

This is one of my favorite hotels I have stayed in. The location is excellent - right in the heart of Le Marais and near to metro stations. The rooms are very charming and quaint and decorated in an old style format. Our immaculate corner room smelled of soap and lavender every day and had a balcony with a wonderful view. Even though we faced the busy Rue de Rivoli, it was very quiet. The beds have been described as hard, but I would say they were firm. I have slept on harder beds in Asia. We each had two excellent pillows to choose from - soft and fluffy or one that was more flat. The bathroom was very small as was the shower, so I would not advise this hotel room for people who are....."XXL". I think my wife and I are normal size, and had no problem. The shower, by the way had excellent and easily controlled water pressure. The temperature in the room was also easy to control. We were on the third floor, and took the short stairs up each day instead of the very small elevator. Again, people who are "big" and coming with lots of luggage might find this hard to navigate. I would therefore suggest another hotel, or even city. It you need the Marriot or Hilton, this hotel is definitely not for you, but, if you want a hotel with personality and a taste of French style charm, it is ideal! I loved it!

I've been staying in this hotel for over 20 years. Always a pleasure. The rooms are wonderfully decorated, clean and comfortable enough, staff is friendly and reliable. Location couldn't be better: in the Marais, close o metro lines 1 and 11.

A French gem, a change from the usual mass 'characterless' modern hotels, Has a feel of French interior authenticity. A clean warm hotel in a great location, lots of cafe bars,and restaurants 'on the doorstep', Metro stations nearby, and within walking distance of the Latin quarter.

Bedbugs!!! Be aware!!! We stayed for 4 nights and started to see bite marks on legs and arms and found bloody trail on sheets. Stay at your own risks!

The enterance stairs tell you all you need to know about the Hotel de Nice. Whimsical, fun, a fairytale hotel in the middle of a fairytale city

This is a unique property. We loved it. The decor is beautifully Parisian, the manageress' are lovely and very helpful. It is in a great area and is excellent value. It is surrounded by restaurants and independent shops selling all sorts of interesting items. The transport links are good too although we were able to walk to pretty much anywhere in the city centre. We hope to return there in the future.

This hotel is infested with bed bugs. So much so that when we went to notify reception that there was bed bugs in our room the exterminator was already at the hotel! Our room was fumed twice. Once with our knowledge, second fumigation without our knowledge until we entered the room and had to open windows due to smell of chemicals in our room. Staff could not confirm second fumigation. Everyday there was different staff. Communication seems to be very poor between the staff members.

Loved it. Proximity to cafes was superb. Adorable balcony with a view to the square. Very nice staff, very friendly. Downsides: no bath soap (dispenser in tub very unattractive and looked like a public WC), shampoo, conditioner; hairdryer very uncomfortable to use. No elevator to the ground floor. If you are unable to walk without assistance this is a problem.

Very central and nice 3 star hotel Great restaurants, shopping centres and metros around 👍
