This hotel is probably the best kept secret in Nice. Midway between the train station and the beach, the Little Palace is an absolute gem. We stayed there for one night and was taken by surprise how nice our room was for the price we paid. For 68 Euro it was the best bargain in our 9-day trip to Europe. Only if we could find anything like that in London, we would have been happy campers.

We booked Little Palace via Venere.com and it was a good experience.
Received relatively clear directions and found our way from the train station (after asking someone else!).
But! Once we were there (10 minute walk), it was fine. The first day there was no AC but it was promptly fixed the next day when we asked about it.
As mentioned elsewhere, there is no shower curtain but there is a bath rug and a floor drain.
The location is perfect (short) walk to the Promenade, the beach and the shops.
There was a flat screen tv which also tuned to radio stations, which was interesting.
The room was spacious enough and cleaned regularly. We appreciated the balcony.
We never did partake of the 8 Euro bfast but bought a baguette at the grocery store next door.
The staff was not rude but not overly friendly either.
Overall, I would stay at this hotel again and recommend it.

I stayed at Little Palace for a weekend in May in a single room. The room was spacious, quiet, very clean, and well kept. The bathroom was very clean too and everything was working fine. The location is good, on a road leading directly from the railway station to the famous seafront promenade, about half-way. Overall, the hotel offers great value and much more than you'd expect from a French two-star property. Didn't try the breakfast, which was 8 Euro but just had coffee and croissant at the next corner café.

I can't believe this was a 2 star hotel!!! we were here from April 18-22 in a triple room for 90 euros/night (booked on venere.com). the room and bathroom was really clean, only cnn on t.v. which was a flat screen, no AC, we didn't have the breakfeast. there is a market nextdoor which is very convienent, 5 min walk from train station! don't look any further...stay here!
