Stayed for 3 nights and having read the reviews from other travellers I have to say they were mostly right. Great hotel really good location only a few blocks from the promenade and the same the other way to the train station. We stayed on the 5th floor in room 504 which looks like it has been renovated quite recently,... more

Beware! Our family 3 girls and 2 adults stayed at Hotel Gounod this past August. We were placed in two rooms due to the amount of people. The 3 teenagers were put in a room on the second floor and my husband and I were on the top floor. In the middle of the night a man entered our girls... more

My wife and I have just returned from a wonderful holiday in Nice. We stayed at the Gounod Hotel in Rue Gounod. The hotel is a classic stone building with a turret and carved stone window surrounds and balconies. There are steps to the ground floor which may prove difficult for those with limited mobility. There is a lift to... more

Gounod is small but friendly. The staff were welcoming and helpful. It is a 3 star hotel, and this is a fair reflection of it - don't expect top class luxury, but it is comfortable and pleasant. We booked a suite - but don't expect large US style suites! - ours had a smallish bedroom, a bathroom and a separate... more

We found this hotel as part of a package through Northwest Airlines. It is located 3-4 very short blocks north of the Promenade des Anglais which has a bus stop, and 4-5 very short blocks south of a train station. It is next door to a "sister" hotel, the Hotel Splendide, which has a pool you are allowed to use... more

We had orginially wanted to stay at the Spendid next door, however glad we didn't, the Gounod is owned by the Spendid, but much smaller, cozy and much nicer, the staff are very friendly, the rooms are adequate and clean, nice bathroom. Breakfast is OK but nothing special, you have to get there before 8.30am or there won't be much... more

I had read the reviews of this hotel but didn't know what to expect- the staff were lovely, telling us excitedly about all the things we could do in Nice and even giving us a complimentary bottle of a decent red wine in our room. The room was very comfortable and clean- the mini bar well stocked but the hotel... more

Booked this hotel after reading reviews in TA. It does what it says on the tin! I contacted a Reviewer to find out the best rooms and was told 503, 504, 505 & 301. When we checked in we were allocated 505 bit when we opened the door we saw flip flops, a t -shirt and, checking the wardrobe, luggage.... more

My husband and I stayed at the Gounod last September, after reading about it in Time Out's South of France guide book. I loved the style and character of the Gounod, the room we had (double on the 5th floor) was a lovely size, double french doors on to a small balcony. Whilst not exceptionally new, or modern, the room... more
