Blanc Sable Hotel

This is a nicely renovated, thoughtfully decorated and owner-run hotel. Room was a decent size, air-conditioning not switched on, it seems. Modern bathroom. Mini fridges unfortunately only in rooms with balconies, which is odd. No free water. The elevator is tiny, two people with luggage barely fit. Friendly and accommodating owners. Did not try the breakfast. Pool was too cold in late September (not heated, it seems) and not always clean. Surprisingly, some plane noise even though Nice airport is not close. Spacious underground garage. The main drawback is the location in a cul-de-sac off a pretty busy and not very scenic through-road. There aren't many desirable restaurants within a ten-minute walk, and the shortest route to the beach and its promenade leads through a dirty and horribly smelly underpass below the train tracks. All other ways to the beach are 20 minutes or more to walk. This is a solid option if you have a car or scooter, or are ready to use Bolt/Uber every day, otherwise I would advise against it.

We recently stayed at Blanc Sable hotel. What a fabulous gem of a hotel this is. As soon as you walk through the door you feel relaxed and chilled out. The owners are so welcoming and helpful. The hotel is so well thought out with the owner , Gilles, artistic eye over everything. From the cushions, plates, pool towels, water bottles there is such details and consideration which for me was a joy. The owners really have put alot of care and thought into making this hotel very special. The breakfast is actually one of the best breakfasts I have ever had. Gilles sources the most incredible pastries and breads from local bakeries in Antibes and Valbonne along with cheeses, ham, jams and granola yoghurt pots. Even the drinks at the bar have been considered from kombucha iced tea drinks, rose wine and local liquor etc etc. The rooms are simply decorated but very effective. Everywhere in the hotel is air conditioned and the Wifi works well (very important with three teenage daughters!). Our car was safely parked in the garage under the hotel. The pool was a real treat and didn’t feel at all chlorinated, with comfy beds and plenty of hotel towels. Gilles and his wife were very helpful with knowledge about the area. We were genuinely sad to leave.

We booked this hotel 2 years ago but had to rearrange 3 times due to travel restrictions. In that time ownership changed. The new owners had no record of our booking (previous bookings having been changed quite informally) but they were so accommodating and confirmed our party of 11. When we arrived, early in the morning we were allowed in and offered food and drink while we waited for our rooms. We lounged by the pool and everything was very relaxed. The decor is so boho and the outside area is much lovelier than the photos look! Breakfast was lovely, all focused on organic produce/drinks. Rooms were clean and well air conditioned. The owners were so helpful, arranging taxis for us and booking restaurants (such amazing recommendations and got us in to a very exclusive restaurant on the Saturday night 👌🏽). They could not have done more. Would highly recommend

Very nice and well decorated hotel. Great breakfast with healthy choices. Very friendly owners.

Lovely boutique hotel with friendly owners/staff. Located on a 15 min walk from the beach- one of the staff members was so kind to even offer us ice for our picnic. Delicious local and home cooked breakfast with made to order coffee. Aesthetic beach-y decor and pool. Would recommend!

Lovely super friendly team at Black Sable. Really enjoyed the minimalism and fresh looking rooms. Breakfast was lovely too.

Lovely hotel Fantastic relaxing stay

The pool, breakfast and breakfast area are very good. My problem is where ‘minimalist’ meets cheap (bare light bulbs, no hooks in the bathroom, not even one to hang the old fashioned shower on) no furniture in the bedroom to put anything on. The parking situation is not good for a non french driver. This hotel has its good points, but I find it overpriced.
