Accommodation

Hi Hotel > Matali Crasset - Nice : room Rendez-vous

Nice has a vast and varied selection of all types of accommodation catering for a wide range of tastes and budgets.

Location

Hotels and apartments are available in most districts but bear in mind that bus services tend to be quite rare after 7pm and taxi fares are very expensive.

With this in mind, try to find somewhere as near to the centre as possible. However, as you would expect, it is usually true that the nearer the Old Town the more expensive and that anywhere on the Promenade des Anglais will charge a premium price especially at popular times.

Hotels

Below are links to a few hotels ranging from high-end to budget. Prices vary considerably according to the season.

Two of the best (and most expensive!) hotels are on the Promenade des Anglais. The Hyatt Regency Nice Palais de la Méditerranée and the Le Negresco.
