We thought we would like this place, it was pretty new looking, got great reviews, made it into Lonely Planet and Le Routard, and looked clean. Patrick was so friendly and nice... when we were handing him our money. The room is alright, bunk beds and a sink. We were only provided a sheet and when the air conditioning is... more

Not a bad little place. Location is decent for traveling around the Cote d'Azur, as it's near the train station (walking distance, in fact). However, that's not the nicest/safest area of Nice. It can be a bit sketchy, but if you are an alert and experienced traveler you should be fine. Price was decent. Locked out every afternoon from 10... more

The hostel is easy to find and very well located on a rather dingy sidestreet just off the main shopping street in Nice -Ave Jean Medecin.

I found it to be neat and decent. It has a fully equipped kitchen at the disposal of the guests. The 3rd floor is where (at that... more

I am 17 yrs old and have just returned from a week in Nice with 2 friends. We had an absolutely wicked time and stayed in the best hostel possible. It's called Chez Patrick, and is great, cos aswell as being close to the station and the beach, its a couple of minutes from a cheap supermarket and one nice... more

I would like to warn any cyclist who reads about this hostel in the cycle france lonely planet guide that it is NOT a good place to stay. Me and my partner stayed there for one reason, we needed to have a place to store our bike bags when we went off to camp in corsica. A price for this... more
