Hotel Mercure Nice Centre Grimaldi 4 gwiazdki

We booked this through British Airways and it was a good choice - very convenient location, a few minutes from the line 2 tram stop which came in from the airport, the main shopping street, the Promenade des Anglais etc. The staff were very friendly and helpful “could we print our boarding passes please?” “Of course!”, no hesitation. I wouldn’t describe the rooms as spacious, but they were fine - one of ours had a balcony which was nice. Very clean.

The hotel is very centrally located for exploring Nice. The closest team stop is Jean Medicine and is then only a few minutes walk to the hotel with a direct service to the airport and only 1.50e per ride. Around the hotel are many enjoyable restaurants, coffee shops and ice cream parlours. Many have breakfast offers if you do not wish to avail of the hotel buffet at 19e. There is a supermarket next door and the promenade is again only a few minutes walk. The location really is a star attraction of this hotel. The hotel itself is in a very architecturally stunning building, the hotel lobby and reception have been well modernised. There are very comfortable seating areas to convene with friends and to enjoy the bar offerings. Breakfast is also served in this area. The check-in was fast and efficient and I had been upgraded to a privilege room due to my Accor status. The room was well appointed but a little dated upon first impressions mainly due to keeping some of the traditional features of the building. The fixtures and fittings are modern and have stood the test of time, the carnival/clown theme is a little disjointed but memorable I guess. The room had a very large comfortable bed with a range of different pillows. There was a seat, table, large screen TV (no English channels), mini fridge and Nespresso machine. The mini fridge came with some complimentary drinks which were replenished each day. The bathroom is a little dated but is saved by a large walk in shower with a rain head. The WiFi was open access, stable and averaged 20mbs. Overall the room became comfortable and is just on the cusp of being a 4-star in my opinion. Credit must be given to the friendliness of the staff and attentiveness of the room cleaner. The hotel also has a terrace on the top floor which has decent views but offers an area of relaxation and sunbathing for the warmer months. In summary this is a great hotel with regards to location. The room was functional and comfortable but retains some of the character of an older hotel. I would stay here again when coming to Nice.

We stayed three nights here. Hotel is situated perfectly, very easy to go anywhere and also to find a hotel. Staff is very friendly and always helpfull. Room was cute small, but always clean. And u dont need bigger room when u goin just to sleep there. Breakfast was very good, and i love how it was made as a kitchen at home. I would recommend this hotel anytime.

We enjoyed a lovely 2 night Winter break. It is close to the efficient Tram but we arrived on a strike day and had to use a taxi which cost 54 euros which was very expensive compared to our 3 euro Tram tickets to return to the airport. The hotel was very warm, clean and welcoming. I have visited Nice many times but not in Winter and the breakfast was very well presented and enjoyed. My only negative was a slighted limited warm selection for vegetarians. The room was quiet and comfortable with endless hot water and a lovely waterfall shower. There is a sun terrace on the roof and lovely to enjoy the morning sunshine. I would certainly return again and thank you for a lovely stay.

Spent 3 nights here in October. Room very comfortable and clean. Very good variety of hot & cold foods for breakfast. There were a couple of little customer service issues, which were quickly resolved but on the whole the staff were friendly and efficient. Overall great value for money. I would definitely recommend Hotel Mercure Nice Centre Grimaldi.
