we stayed at the "Acanthe" for 4 nights and were very happy to have chosen this hotel. it is right in the city centre, just 2 mins away from the main square Massena or the Palais de la Justice. you just need about 15 mins to walk to the trainstation and the beach is also just a few minutes away.... more

We stayed at the Acanthe for 3 nights, what a good find. OK so the rooms are tiny, but they have everything you want, wardrobe, desk and a large fan, which came in very useful. Again the bathroom was tiny, but there was always hot water and clean towels every day. The staff were very helpful, and spoke several languages.... more

The room was small (but this is typical for France) as too was the bathroom. But everything was clean and the towels were changed everyday.

A good central, budget hotel, suitable for a short stay. No more than 3 nights, as everything is basic. Clean, servicable but basic. more

Besides its location as mentioned by other travellers in their reviews, I can't think of anything positive to say about this hotel and NOTHING would make me stay in that hotel again. I was so appauled by the state of it that I only stayed there one night after all. The room was tiny, and I mean tiny ... a... more

A basic and small hotel,yet in the most amazing location in the heart of old Nice. Close proximity to the markets, the beach, the shopping centres and restaurants. Trams and buses a pied! The staff are really friendly and the breakfast is excellent value. more
