Hôtel de la Fontaine

A small, pleasant hotel a few meters from the sea promenade. There are restaurants in the vicinity and 2 supermarkets opposite the hotel. Distance from the railway station 15 minutes on foot, from the tram from the airport 8 minutes on foot. The hotel rooms are smaller, which is standard in France. The staff at the reception and in the restaurant were very pleasant and helpful, on the last day we got breakfast at 6:00 a.m., despite the fact that it was officially only from 7:30 a.m. The hotel provides luggage storage for early arrival or late departure. We got a free upgrade to a superior room facing the courtyard. The room is new, clean, comfortable. The bathroom is also small but clean and well equipped. Cleaning and towel change was done every day and the cleaning was detailed. The breakfast was excellent (yogurts, cereals, ham, cheese, sausages, scrambled eggs, croissants, cakes, fruit, fruit puree, jams,...), the weak link was the coffee. The drip coffee in a thermos was weak, the coffee from the machine (cappuccino, latte, cocoa) was made of powder. At the bar, they have an espresso machine, with such a small number of guests, the bartender would surely manage to make everyone a normal high-quality espresso, and the guests would appreciate it.

cutre little hotel nice and clean good service small room great blocichen

Cosy hotel you want to come back to I was on my own in Nice and am very glad that I stayed at Hotel de la Fontaine. First of all the staff is very friendly and helpful. Here I especially want to mention Kurt and Andrea. I got some good advice on places to visit. The hotel is perfectly located close to the beach walk Promenade des Anglais (to me the best place in Nice), less than 1 km to the railway station and a 7 minute walk to the tram stop taking you from and to the airport. The Old Town and Place Massena are also only a few minutes walk away. You feel very safe in this area.

I am especially happy with both of the young men that helped me park my car in the garage and the young man who helped me set up the GPS in my car on the day of departure. Please give both of these young men my deepest thanks. Also let them know we arrived at our destination in Spain with no problems. Thank you so very much !!!!!
