We were booked into this hotel by our travel agent. We were very happy with the location only one street back from the Promenade d'Anglais- and found the ability to park temporarily in front of the hotel to unload luggage very convenienent and the directions to the near by public carpark easy to follow, but we had diabolical trouble finding...

Dear Guest, Thanks a lot for your recent stay. We're happy to know that you appreciated the location of our hotel, its cleanness & double glassed windows. As for the shower in the room, the problem you mention is already resolved in newly refurbished rooms with shower cabins. We hope to accomodate you next time in one of these rooms.... More

We arrived at the Hotel in May. We where on a family holiday. The location is great, and it was a 2min walk from the shopping street and the promenade. The personal talked very good English and the service was good. But the room standard was bad, or not bad, but either good. My room didn't have shower doors and... More

One street from the Promenade and close to restaurants, so the location is great for a stay in Nice. The room I had was small and faced the street with street noise coming in until it quietened down around 11pm. The bathroom and shower is poor. There is no shower curtain and no hook for the hand-held shower rose, meaning... More

Stayed here summer 2011 with my partner, really great location for the old town of nice and for the promenade d'anglais... it's clean and comfortable, especially if you get one of the newly renovated rooms. When we first arrived, we had gotten an old room which was on one of the top floors facing out to the street, we asked... More

This was my second stay in Nice. Last time I stayed to the east of Gare de Nice Ville (if you are looking at the station from the beach side), in the hotel district. I found the location of this hotel to be much more satisfactory, and less out of the way. Rue de France is one of the main... More

1st time for me in Nice and was recommended this place by family who had stayed here before. Read some of the reviews on here and they seem to be overly critical, this is not a 5 star hotel, but at the same time, it does not charge 5 star hotel prices and does not claim to be, so don't... More

Nice hotel but I booked two balcony rooms through Venere, and booking response confirmed "Patio" so I was happy. When we arrived one room had a balcony but very small, the other none. There are only four rooms with balconies. Patio does not mean you have a balcony, but means it is a room facing the patio side of the... More

Dear Sir, Thanks a lot for your stay last week and your detailed review. Please take notice that we don't commercialize rooms with balcony through the intermediate website, nor directly by the hotel. As you underlined, we've got very few rooms of this kind. You booked 2 twin-bedded rooms facing the patio. We accomodated you on the highest floor in... More

We visited this quiet, tranquil hotel in June and also October 2011. My wife and I really enjoy this hotel. Location is excellent, less that 2 minutes to the seafront and about 10 minutes walk to the Place Massena and nearby main bus station. In June we stayed in one of the older rooms. It was not the most modern... More

My self and my eight year old daughter had never been to Nice, so we really wanted to stay in a central location with good transport links. Hotel de la Fontaine is exactly what we needed. We travelled from the airport to the hotel using the bus. It was quick and easy and costs 4 Euros per person. The bus... More

The hotel does not pretend to be anything but what it is...an ideal base for a hotel in Nice where you can enjoy the sea, beach and culture of a varied locality. The rooms are rather small and facilities limited (we would have liked tea/coffee making facilities in the room) but you are provided with all the essentials. The hotel... More
