No features besides breakfast room
This modern three-pearl boutique hotel occupies a convenient location right by the train station on Nice's main shopping street of Avenue Jean Medecin. Its 44 contemporary rooms were tastefully renovated in 2016, but are a bit small -- and bathrooms are tiny -- but feature stylish black-and-white decor, flat-screen TVs, and free Wi-Fi, plus some have furnished balconies. There's not much in terms of features here beyond a daily breakfast buffet that incurs a pricey fee and is served in a pleasant dining room. Free coffee and soft drinks are also available throughout the day. For something with an indoor pool and fitness area, check out Hotel Nice Riviera -- but rooms are basic and feel a bit dated.

Scene
Small and modern boutique hotel with limited common spaces and stylish decor
This small boutique hotel features a modern style and a convenient central location that makes it a great choice for tourists and business travelers alike. Having undergone a renovation in April 2016, interiors are fresh and tastefully appointed with stylish contemporary decor. Common spaces, though there aren't many besides a tiny lobby and a breakfast room, are cloaked in a chic black and white color palette that adds sophistication. Funky black chairs with cutout details in the dining space mirror the decorative panels adorning the walls, while hip half-domed lamps illuminate the room. The lack of extra features and facilities might detract some from staying here, but overall, it's a clean, stylish, and modern property that's a solid choice for those wanting to explore the city on foot or seeking proximity to the train station.
Location
Right by Nice's train station and within walking distance of many top tourist points
The hotel occupies a convenient location near Nice's train station, which is a three-minute walk away. There are plenty of dining options in the area, plus the hotel is situated on Avenue Jean Medecin, the main shopping street that runs down to Nice's Old Town (a 15-minute walk away, or seven minutes via tram that runs along the avenue and stops a minute's walk from the hotel). There's a high concentration of restaurants, bars, and shops in the charming Old Town, as well as a lovely flower market (20-minute walk, 10 minutes by public transit).

Other popular area destinations include the charming town of Antibes (20-minute train ride), Cannes (30-minute train ride), and Monaco (37-minute train ride). Nice's airport is about a 15-minute drive or 20 minutes via public transportation.

Small rooms with minimalist contemporary decor and tiny bathrooms; some have balconies
Rooms feature understated contemporary decor and an elegant black and white color scheme. Beds, topped with crisp white bedding, are framed by large black wooden headboards with padded white accents and built-in nightstands and lamps.

Other standard amenities include flat-screen TVs, electronic safes, and free Wi-Fi, but there are no tea/coffee-making facilities or minibars -- though free coffee and other beverages are available in the dining room.

Bathrooms are tiny and can feel quite cramped, but they're clean and modern, equipped with walk-in rainfall showers, magnifying mirrors, and hairdryers.
