Stayed at the de la fontaine for four nights in a room at the font of the building, over looking the road. The windows are double glazed and as it was cold outside when staying there i kept the window closed and apart from rubbish collection outside, and people getting up in the mornings, banging doors inside, (to be expected)...

This really is not for one to relax--we work hard for our money or even if helped financially-whatever the situation- we all deserve a good relaxing break and if in need and searching for a good relaxing break -this is not the place for anyone for a peaceful quiet stay at all. As a hotel, a hotel already knows that... More

Dear Madam, We thank you for your 5 days stay in our hotel. Initially you booked for 4 nights & later you extended your stay with us. You were happy with a special discounted rate we offered to you within a busy Easter period. It’s a pity that we had to call the police as you couldn’t pay your invoice... More

We have just got back from a long weekend in Nice staying at this lovely hotel. The location is perfect, just a short stroll from everything, shops, bars and the beautiful promenade. We had two twin deluxe rooms which look like they have recently been refurbished, everything was very clean and pristine, especially the bathroom which was spotless! The room... More

We came back a third time because the location is unbeatable for the price in Nice. The room this time was very dated (see photos) and in desperate need of remodeling (including the beds which were uncomfortable and need replacing). The bathroom was kept tidy as possible for such old fixtures and mold due to age and proximity to the... More

Dear Guest, Thanks for your third stay with us and your review. We were happy to welcome you again and are disappointed to know that you were not fully satisfied last time. We truly regret that we didn't understand your specific needs for the room. The room overlooking the patio was confirmed to you by email and you were accomodated... More

Just returned back from the Del la Fontaine, good points : Location Spotless rooms Breakfast quite good Not so good points: Noise on landing we were on floor 3 and every morning at 6.45 someone came rattling keys and opening a cupboard. Also the people across from us had small children and when they came back at 12.30 at night... More

The location - as mentioned in most of the other comments too - is probably the best in Nice. The bus stops are just a block away and all the cozy restaurants and cultural attractions are right there. You are in the heart of everything and the surroundings are classy. Stuff in the hotel was friendly and ready to assist... More

Booked this past week after reading reviews. First the positive: the location is wonderful and the staff amazingly helpful in all regards and the bed was very comfortable. We had a back facing room without a view but were not disturbed by any street noise. It must be added, for those with a car, that it is only about 100m... More

The hotel had everything we needed in Nice and was a great location with easy walking distance to all the attractions and few minutes from beaches. The room I had was small and faced the street with street noise. The staff were very helpful with tour assistance, dinner suggestions, printing boarding passes e.t.c. Would stay there again though.

I found this hotel thanks to TripAdvisor and it did no disappoint. It's a block in from the Promenade and very centrailly located. You can take the #98 bus for €4 ($5) from the airport and back. It's the Congress stop. The return is a block closer to the Negresco than the incoming stop. This same transit card can be... More
