What guests think

At Boscolo Nice Hotel & Spa, travellers consistently praise the central location and stylish setting, along with generally friendly staff, yet several reviews question five‑star value due to small or oddly designed rooms and occasional maintenance or housekeeping issues.

The spa and rooftop pool are highlights for many, though the spa has faced closures or needs refreshing, and the pool area is small with limited seating. Breakfast and the on-site restaurant receive mostly positive feedback, but some guests find food offerings average or pricey and dislike the breakfast area odor on occasion. Several note gym limits, no on-site parking, and that beach access is not included and may incur extra charges. Expect a centrally located, design-forward stay with good amenities but uneven five-star polish.

Très bel hôtel au centre de Nice. Un bémol toutefois sur le spa dont le sauna et le hammam étaient fermés et la piscine intérieure du Spa un peu fraiche et la mosaïque du sol de la piscine se délitent ce qui fait qu'il y a des bouts de verres au fond de cette dernière ce qui peut s'avérer dangereux si on marche dessus. Toute la partie spa a besoin d'une rénovation. Le spa est ouvert jusqu'à 20h mais si on arrive à 19h15 on a l'impression de déranger le personnel présent qui semble avoir hâte de fermer... Personnel de l'accueil très agréable

The service was excellent, the staff were very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was good and also the spa treatments. The only thing that was a bit disappointing is the outdoor pool space, the pool is great but there isn’t enough places for all guests while there are many unoccupied tables, my expectation is that it would be versatile according to the hour in the day

Pros 1. Located in the center of Nice 2. Friendly staff, great service 3. Provide sparking water, wine and snacks 4. indoor and outdoor pool are the features Cons 1. Small tiny old rooms 2. Large twin feels like a full size bed 3. Breakfast charge is too much 4. Pool is tiny and view is just ok. 5. The first pic of the main hotel page is definitely misleading. It’s 10mins walk to the beach and they do not have lounge chair there. 6. Do not ask hotel to call a cab. The driver charges 30euro for a 10-min ride, which only costs 10euro w/ Uber. 7. There is a flying bug in the room unfortunately.

Hotel pulito e centrale ma molto deludente per i servizi. La palestra molto ridotta con attrezzi arrugginiti. La piscina sul rooftop molto piccola con intorno solo sedie che non offrivano alcuna possibilita’ di solarium e soprattutto nessun garage. Abbiamo pagato 40 euro al giorno per lasciare la macchina in strada inaccettabile soprattutto perche’ viaghiavamo con un’auto d’epoca e spendere soldi per non averla protetta e custodita e’ stato vergognoso. Non ritornero’ piu’ in questo hotel

La chambre était propre. Nous avons été gracieusement surclassés. Accueil très chaleureux. Or, quand nous sommes rentrés vers 0:30 à l’hôtel, le hall était plongé dans le noir, et les portes battantes permettant d’accéder à l’hôtel et elles aussi fermées. Nous sommes donc rentrés par la petite porte ce que je trouve bizarre pour un hôtel cinq étoiles. La chambre est un peu défraîchie mais elle reste tout de même confortable. Le sèche-cheveux ne marchait pas. Je suis quelque peu déçu de mon séjour, je m’attendais à un meilleur standing pour un hôtel de cette renommée.

Very disappointing visit. We stayed here for a week three years ago and it was wonderful. Was really disappointed this time. Even upgraded to a ‘deluxe’ room, it was of motel quality. Uncomfortable bed, thin bedding, cheap pillows and towels. No armchairs in room and carved headboard made it impossible to read in bed. TV positioned opposite wardrobe do you couldn’t see it. Minibar not fully stocked. Had to request soap. Most certainly not worthy of its star rating.

I wouldn’t consider this a five star hotel. We spent over $1k per night and compared to the Anantara (a four star hotel) this was definitely not worth it. The carpets in the hallways were stained, the headboard of our room was dirty, the terrace was super small. The shower was incredibly loud and the water temperature was never consistent.

We arrived on the 20th, once we got back from dinner we called down to reception as there was a bad sewage smell in the room. Nothing was actioned and no one came to the room and we ended up falling to sleep with the light on. We then mentioned it again when leaving the hotel in the morning of the 21st. We got back to the hotel in the early afternoon and the smell was still awful. When had then planned to go to the beach that states is included on the hotels website. The reception team then tried to charge us €80. We were outraged by this and the smell of the room that we asked to speak to the manager. He clearly didn’t understand what we were saying but offered us to swap rooms. This is not ideal when we want to relax and had completely unpacked. We are only staying one extra night so this didn’t seem like a fair solution to the problem and also … didn’t address the fact we had already complained about it TWICE. Not at all happy.

The hotel was beautiful - very clean and white and had a regal feeling to it. The staff was very friendly, but not very efficient. I asked the front desk to book a lunch for me in Eze - and they informed me they would do it the following morning. The following morning they didn't address it or book the lunch. I asked for my mini bar to be re-filled - waited 40 minutes and finally went downstairs to get a bottled water. Any requests from staff were either slow or not handled at all.

Pas adapté aux personnes âgées ! Je suis venue pour la piscine et l’accès est difficile avec un escalier. J’ai eu beaucoup de mal à y descendre. La chambre est bien et confortable mais la aussi le modernisme n’est pas adapté à ma génération : il a fallu chercher longtemps comment allumer ou ouvrir les volets ! Un vrai problème : dans la chambre 310 la douche donne dans l’entrée attenante à la chambre . Il n’y a pas de salle de bains fermée ! Donc toute personne dans la chambre vous voit tout nu. Sympa! Sinon c’est confortable et le personnel est attentionné. Mais je ne crois pas que j’y retournerai. Marie

The hotel is in a great location in centre of town and just short walk to the beach. However, considering we paid over $900 CDN per night (August, so likely an increase due to high season) this hotel is not worth the value for money. The room was tight and oddly designed. When you walk into the room you are essentially in the shower and sink area of the bathroom.There isn’t a door between this area and the bedroom. There was no storage area in the bathroom, just an Ikea type shelf that looked well used. The mini fridge was not plugged in so everything was warm and when we plugged it in, hours later we found that it didn't work anyways. The area where they served breakfast smelled so bad that we had to eat outside. This hotel looks very pretty on the outside and is in a great spot, but definitely not worth the price.

Service in room was not good. Cleaning first day only done when asked and late in the afternook. Staff did not refill soap, toilet paper and coffee/the. Every day we had to call for this. Bathrobes were not in the room and they only arrived next day upon further request. We were informed the hotel was full and not sufficient staff. Should not take in guests if you have no one to take care of the customers. This is a 5 star hotel - but service only 3 stars.

Bien que ma réservation ne soit pas annulable, l’hôtel a spontanément proposé de me rembourser la dernière nuitée. Un geste d’une grande élégance que nous avons énormément apprécié.

The interior of this hotel is so unique and interesting. It is so well located in terms of access and easy walking distance to the ocean, Vieux Nice Ville and the Saleya market. The hotel is steps from the subway entrance that connects to the Nuce airport. In addition it is an easy walk along Jean Medicin from the train station. The tram runs along Jean Medicin but it really isn’t necessary to hop on because the walk is flat with wide sidewalks on a street that only has the tram running its length. You can’t go wrong staying at Boscolo. It was our sixth stay at this property.
