Excellent location and easy check-in if you arrive late

Nice owner with quick reply time for any question. Great location to enjoy the old town and the sea front. You can walk to the train station if you are good at walking but you can take buses/trams to and from everywhere very easily. Lots of restaurants around (can be a little lively if you were expecting early nights) I would recommend this flat to any friend ! Thank you

Great spot in old town Nice

The instructions for getting into the property sound a bit like a treasure hunt, but ultimately are very clear and easy :D The apartment had more than enough space for the 3 of us. It was great to be able to do some laundry while we were there. There was some late night noise from the street below, but we were all so tired from a fun visit to the very accessible old town that it didn't bother us one bit. I'd happily stay here again ... thanks Janine!

Great location

Nice apartment right in the middle of the old town. Check-in via key box very comfy. No need to bring your own bed sheets or towels which I very much appreciated. Of course it is noisy at night, but that's the price you have to pay when you want to be in the centre. Although we did not meet in person Janine was very welcoming. The flat is on the third floor without elevator which was no problem for us, but might be for elderly people. All in all we enjoyed our stay.

Listing not accurate

We walked in, looked around, and left! The picture reflects a red coach and art that is not in this apartment. It is an old blue futon. I found the apartment small, stuffy and not well ventilated. We did not stay even for a night. The bathroom was not very clean and while the property owner suggested this was due to rust, we stayed in numerous properties throughout our travels and did not encounter even one bathroom that looked like this.

Familie Urlaub 2023🇩🇪

Unser Urlaub war super schön 👍👍 - Wohnung top ( gut ausgestattet um sich wie Zuhause zu fühlen) - Lage top ( Strand und die Straßenbahn in der Nähe, viele kleine Restaurants, Kaffee und Kiosk 👍aber teuer … aber beim Monoprix kann die Familie gut einkaufen ) Das einzige negative war die Lautstärke. Die Menschen haben jede Nacht bis in den Morgenstunden gefeiert. Aber mit Geschlossen Fenstern und Ventilatoren war‘s Ok. Im Groß und Ganzen waren wir sehr zufrieden. Ps.: An alle die ohne Auto da sind, kauft euch am Automaten eine BahnCard zum aufladen. Sie ist Pink und für Kurzstrecken. Merci Madame Hudson B. W.

Amazing Location

A traditional apartment close to the heart of Vieux Nice, location could not have been better. Apartment was cosy and although slightly aged was kept very clean. Only real negative was weather was incredibly hot and not much air flow in the apartment even with the windows open and in any case the neighbourhood very noisy until early in the morning so difficult to sleep with the windows open. The fans provided helped a little. Janine was very helpful with checking in and making the apartment ready for an early arrival.

Wir können die Wohnung leider nicht empfehlen.

Die Wohnung war nicht sauber geputzt, im Bad hat es gestunken, es gab kein WC-Papier, das Bettsofa für die Kinder war weder aufgeklappt noch bezogen und der Esstisch ist nur 80x80 cm gross. Die Lage ist gut.

Charming apartment in old town near beach

We loved this charming apartment and my kids and I were sad to say goodbye to it! It was perfect for our family and had everything we needed - a cozy living space and separated bedrooms, and a well-stocked kitchen and utility area. The huge light-filled windows looked down onto the bustling pedestrianized alleys below, full of stores and restaurants. We loved the sound of the church bells and the hustle and bustle of daily life and the close proximity to the beach, parks, the old and new town. Could not have had a more central location for everything we wanted to do, including getting buses out of town to places along the Côte d'Azur. It was a great place and Janine and her local managers were all helpful and quickly got us settled. Only caveat is staircase of 3 floors for those that can't manage - not an issue at all for us... And made for a great view down to street below. Definitely recommend this warm and sweet place.

A very nice stay

Property was exactly as described with helpful notes dotted around the place. Fantastic location right on the edge of the old town, the only downside of which was a bit of street noise. Comfy night's sleep had by all and would certainly stay again. Many thanks to Janine for being super organised for our stay.

About the host

Hosted by Janine Hudson

Host profile image
When in Nice, I love just being in the old town, enjoying local cuisine, lingering in cafés, strolling over to Place Garibaldi and then taking the street which runs along the hill to the old port. There are many interesting shops along that way, with antiques, baskets, other stuff. Right at Garibaldi is MAMAC, the modern art museum, which I take a turn through every trip. It is also worth taking a bus up to Cimiez to visit the Chagall Museum and then still further up to the Matisse Museum which adjoins an archaeological site and museum and lovely gardens with view over the city!

There is an antique and knick knack market every Monday at Cours Saleya which is just two minutes away. Also a huge flea / antique market at Place Garibaldi one Saturday per month.

And of course, there is the sea, three minutes across the Place de Palais and under the arches.

Why they chose this property

I was born and raised in Miami, Florida, have lived in Zurich for many years. There, I missed the proximity to the sea. Nice is for me, a way of returning to my roots, without having to go so far. Perhaps it is my French version of Miami Beach plus rich art history, beautiful weather, great architecture, great food.
I visited Nice first in 2000, returned in 2005 and then in 2010 to look for an apartment. Many of the apartments were renovated and chopped up older buildings, loft beds inserted which created rooms with low ceilings. When I entered this apartment, I breathed a deep sigh of relief, and fell instantly in love. The ceilings are high, the windows are tall and the location is great!

What makes this property unique

Light and airy, very close to beach, good connections to everywhere in Nice and French Riviera.
