This is a very good and very centrally located hotel. If you value convenience and being 10-15 mins' walk to the beach, the old town and the station, then it's a very good option. Salma on reception deserves a special mention for her friendliness and attempts to address our questions and requests. Much appreciated- thank you, Salma!
Room seemed to be recently refurbished but did lack some basics like hooks to hang towels. Aircon worked but WiFi didn't. Cleaners came daily, which was great, and when prompted they changed bedsheets.
Within two minutes' walk you have a supermarket, a shopping centre, cafes and restaurants and the tram interchange giving easy access to most of Nice.
All in all, Hotel Nice Etoile was very good value for money.
