Hotel Beau Rivage

Excellent service here from the front desk service. Great room size. The location is very convenient (walking distance to the beach and very close to the market square where there are tons of restaurants to eat). The Castle Hill is also walking distance from the hotel. The only not so good part about the hotel is the spotty wifi service. Still highly recommend here.

My husband and I took a roadtrip through France and stayed at the Hotel Beau Rivage during our time in Nice. It was a splurge for us as far as how much we were willing to spend on our rooms, but since this was the beach part of our vacation we wanted to stay at a nicer place.
Our room was one of the suites with a partial Ocean view (we faced a building across the street but could see the ocean if we leaned out of our balcony). Very clean, modern décor, nice bathroom, and large with a super comfy bed. We loved every aspect of our room and liked the location of the hotel as well (right on the beach and a block or so away from the flower/​antique market).
The one downside to our trip was that on the night of our arrival we had some issues with parking (long story short, my husband spent over an hour trying to park the car as we could not get into the lot that the hotel has a deal with due to an issue on their part, parked in a more expensive lot, and was not comped for it like they said they would). This left us rather annoyed because most hotels, especially nicer ones will comp you regardless of the circumstance as good customer service. This hotel essentially said «the person who was working did not write this down to confirm so we cannot do that for you» ie., «we don’t think you’re telling the truth so too bad.» That’s the main reason they get 4 stars rather than 5 because otherwise the trip was great.
Some things to know before you go:
— the bar across the street is not related to the hotel, they just have the same name, so you cannot put drinks and food on your tab at the hotel
— if you are really into going to the beach and want to visit the south of France for that, Nice is about 95% pebble beach. It’s a great city for a variety of other reasons (like close location to Italy, Monaco, and the downtown), but there may be other cities to stay that have more sand options. This hotel, though, is within walking distance of the one small patch of man-​made sand beach that exists in Nice.

Perfect location, close to the water, it’s not a grand hotel most of the rooms are compact. Modern nautical design. They pump in this sandalwood vanilla scent in the lobby. I think it was developed by Creed, always think of Nice when I smell sandalwood now. We had the larger suite seen in photos 4,8,10 &11 (on hotel website) that has a private terrace. Amazing way to end a vacation.

We had semi-​high expectations for this hotel after seeing all the high (5 star) reviews on here, but ended up being fairly let down… there was no DND sign for our room door, so the maid walked in on us once and we were unable to avoid our daily cleaning service as we usually do at other hotels. Also our room felt and smelled of mildew the entire time, which made our clothes and the sheets feel damp. The staff was overall very nice and it was a very good location, but the hotel itself was below par so I have to give it 2 stars… if we could do it over again, we would pay more for better quality.

This hotel is at a perfect location while you’re in Nice. It is directly across from the beach and they also have their own restaurant and private beach access. The hotel staff were courteous and very friendly and helpful. We got an instant upgrade!
Our room is beautiful with their brown wood shutters and the only complaint is the bathroom which is a bit smaller and the shower protector doesn’t work very well because water always escapes and drowns the floor. The beds are very big I believe it is a king size. The room is very spacious with lots of drawer space too. There is a safe in the room also which is a plus.
Their breakfast is amazing! We finally get to have some bacon, sausages and eggs! An American style breakfast! They also have a lot of pastries and fresh fruits, juices, water, coffee, and cold meats if you prefer. It’s so nice to walk in and out of our hotel and be right at Old Town Nice. Wonderful hotel!

While i’ve been writing reviews, it was hard to remember any other review after this one! This hotel is in an AMAZING location and is completely gorgeous. The staff are friendly and the rooms are beautiful.
When you step outside the hotel door, you just have to walk left, cross the street and you’re at the beach.
I love the pebbled stone theme that they have throughout the hotel. Once you head to the waters, you’ll see the same stones that are very indicative of the beach in NIce.
The hotel is nested within a quieter street, and surrounded by great restaurants, public transportation and the down town area’s central courtyard. We went during the holidays, so there was xmas lights and festivities going on.
Amazing coffee and bakeries all around and just 400m away from a boulevard of shopping.
I hope to go back soon and couldn’t imagine staying anywhere else.
When in Nice make sure you eat at L’Ovale!!!

Tres jolie plage avec un coté lounge, mais le service n’est pas au rendez-​vous.
C’est bien dommage !

prix demesuré par rapport a la qualité et la quantité de l’assiette.trop longue attente pour tout y compris pour pouvoir payer!!! mais le cadre reste sympa!!!

Prix exorbitant, service execrable. A éviter absolument !!

Great place for lunch, good service and food, the children’s menu is exceptional.

Perfect choice! Modern, great service, and understanding of us dumb blondes with poor language skills:)
