Agay Beach

We picked this hotel because of its location; less than 5 minutes walk to the promenade and in the old town and its price. We had booked a deluxe double room as the site showed that it had twin beds. However, when we arrived at the hotel in the early afternoon to check in we were advised that the room was not a twin room - rather a double bed with two duvets. The room was small with no balcony and the windows were difficult to open. The room needs an upgrade and the furnishings are a bit worn.

A decent place to stay with a good sized room and comfy bed, useful kitchen and balcony. We’d stayed in Nice a few times so this time decided to stay outside the city to be close to the airport and St Augustin railway station for day trips along the Riviera - and this hotel works perfectly for that. The tram from Grand Arenas gets you into Nice within fifteen minutes. There aren’t many restaurants in this business district but the Carrefour mini supermarket is a few minutes away for self-catering. The staff were friendly and helpful and the hotel well-maintained except from a stinky bathroom. It didn’t detract from our stay. Worth considering if budget and convenience for the airport and railway/tram system are more important than the romance of staying in town.
