We stayed there for four nights in May. This wasn't my first choice but most of the other hotels within my budget were fully booked. We were overcharged, paying a good 30 euros (per night) more than the prices stated on the hotel pricing sheet in the room. While one of the staff members proved himself friendly and informative, the... more

We stayed here for 2 nights for a concert. The bathroom was very small - even hard to close the door. The bed was average but not particularly comfortable. You would not be able to leave any valuable possessions in the room as you put the key on the wall behind reception yourself when you go out - anyone could... more

Stayed at Hotel de la Buffa over the weekend, some confusion before our stay concerning unreceived emails so we had to call and double check all details before arrival. We arrived mid/late evening due to early evening flight and had no problems checking in at that hour, though we had mentioned the arrival time in advance. The room was a... more

I have stayed in plenty of hostels and am by no means picky. I was expecting a nice budget hotel from Lonely Planet's description and from the reviews on this site. I was very unhappy with my stay. The two staff members we were in contact with during our stay never smiled or said hello. On the last day, however,... more

I stayed at this hotel the last week of June into the first week of July. The location was great. The owners were nice and spoke English. It is a basic low budget hotel. The rooms are small and by no means luxurious but I was not expecting anything fancy. The photos on their website were accurate. The daily maid... more

Hotel de la Buffa is a small, family run hotel in the heart of Nice. The location is excellent, just one block away from the beach and from the famous Hotel Negresco. Staff is very kind and helpful. The lobby is small with rather worn sofas and there is no lift. However, there is only one flight of stairs to... more

My husband and I stayed in this hotel for one night before we were able to pick up the key for our apartment rental. For a one night stay this hotel was ok. Centrally located and cheap but that's about it. I really wouldn't have enjoyed my holiday if I'd had to stay here for the full week. The room... more

I had a twin bedroom which seemed amply roomy and a pleasant bathroom. Stairs were there, there is no elevator. The area is quite convenient. There's a nice market next door, and a small one in front selling yummy rotisserie chickens. The bus is very convenient and right there also. Five/10 minute walk to the beach. Incidentally better late than... more

The location was great - so close to the pedestrian zones and the Promenade de Anglais. The room itseldf was fine, but the bathroom was frightening - a cheater vent that let out the most foul smell. Staff very kind and helpful. more
