Loved loved loved this hostel. It had a huge social area, with a bar (Happy hour starts at 6pm), kitchen serves cheap and great food, really nice staff. If you want to cook your own meals, then there is a big kitchen with everything you need. The rooms were basic but totally fine. It is a little further from centre... More

This place is *really* nice, just as their website & pictures online lead you to believe. I was wondering if it being further away from the city center but the tram in Nice is *wicked* 1 Euro! That's cheaper than anywhere in Canada for sure.. I can't even begin to say how much I love cereal so the cereal bar... More

Amazing hostel in a beautiful part of the world. Can't wait to come back here again. We stayed in a private double which was very clean and comfortable. The best part about this hostel I thought was the kitchen/bar area and what they offer. Breakfast was basic with cereals and toast but each night for dinner they have a different... More

We stayed at the Villa Saint Exupery for six nights (April 12-18) and have to agree with all the reviews that it was one of the best hostels we have ever stayed at. The rooms were comfortable, the food was excellent and the bathrooms and showers were very clean. We had heard from our friends who stayed at the Villa... More

This hostel is in the worst location, not only is it far from the centre (about 20-30 mins tram ride) its also situated at the top of a massive hill, so in the hot summer months walking up the road to the hostel is a NIGHTMARE. I needed to go and buy water from the supermarket and I had to... More

Salut Queenie_N, Thanks for the detailed review. We are very sorry that you did not enjoy your stay. The location of the hostel should provide a quite and inspiring place. The established shuttle-service is at the client's service to avoid the little work-out you described. We would be happy to welcome you again at our Villa Saint Exupéry Beach, located... More

A great hostel is clean, warm and welcoming. I've stayed in many that don't make this grade. However, this means that I am truly able to state that this hostel is OUTSTANDING in terms of staff, facilities, rooms, atmosphere and experience. I had a wonderful time and would definitely recommend it as a budget base for your stay in the... More

The atmosphere in th lounge, bar area is very relaxing. Happy hour beer 6-7pm 1 euro, cocktails 7-8pm 3.50 euros. Normally beer is 2 euro,... More

Location: not in downtown of Nice but very convenient thanks to frequent free pick up service of hotel to the tramway station nearby. Tramway is very low cost and take you to downtown directly. With 1€ you can get to every corners of Nice for a trip less than 74minutes. Near the market and bakery. Staff: very friendly and helpful.... More

I stayed a week in the Villa St Exupery and enjoyed every moment of it. It has very friendly staff and great facilities (endless hot water, more than a dozen computers, tea/coffee/hot chocolate on tap day and night, vast kitchen, excellent evening meals, etc). The location may not be the most central but it is in one of the greenest... More
