Hotel Nice Beau Rivage

I stayed here for five nights. There was an issue with the hot water, but overall, the customer service was excellent. Jean-Matthieu, Juliana, Sonia, and Lena made our stay a beautiful one. Each employee was very accommodating and did their best to meet our needs. I am forever grateful for the incredible hospitality. Breakfast was included and the service was great each time; shout out to Sam for being awesome. I told him that we would be back next year as my buddy and I plan to make this an annual trip. I can affirm that we will be staying at Hotel Beau Rivage Nice. Thank you for everything and we look forward to our return trip!

Lovely helpful staff Great breakfast with plenty of choice Excellent location First room very very small, wardrobe was tiny I ended up using back of bathroom door, the shutters and my bedside table!! Bearing in mind we were staying a week I feel we should have been allocated a larger room, others who were just two nights had far larger rooms! It would put me off staying again unless the room was bigger. We did move due to noise issues.. this is not the fault of the hotel though, due to central location there are early deliveries and refuse collection… after 5 nights we asked to be moved. This was done efficiently and quickly which was very appreciated.

I was very disappointed with my stay at Beau Rivage in Nice. The staff were not particularly friendly or helpful, which really affected the overall experience. Nowhere online did it mention that the beach would be closed, which was a big disappointment since that was one of the main reasons we booked this hotel. We also went to look at the breakfast, but it didn’t look appealing at all — definitely not worth paying for. Overall, this hotel feels more like a 3-star property rather than the 4 stars it claims to have. I would not choose to stay here again.

We enjoyed our stay at Hotel Beau Rivage. The Rooms were spacious, clean, and grandiose with the high (maybe 11-foot) ceilings. The hotel is in a prime location just steps to the Promenade, beach, Castle Hill, harbor, and all the favorite spots in Old Town Nice. We had some issues with our toilette leaking every time it flushed, but the hotel staff was adamite to have maintenance fix the issues. The best part of the experience was the included breakfast. One of the best spreads I have ever enjoyed. I cannot get over the flavor in their crapes and waffles. They even have a machine that grinds chocolate and hazelnuts to make fresh Nutella!

Spent a week at this hotel, great location and perfect base to explore the Cotes d’Azur. ||We did only book a classic double which was small, everything was great apart from lack of clothes storage, a few days here and you would be good! ||Lovely bathroom with good shower, they use good quality bed linen and towels. ||Housekeeping was good although very mean with the coffee and milk for the room tray, may be better to give more! ||Breakfast excellent so much choice and it was constantly checked and refreshed. ||We found all the staff so helpful and friendly they are kind and answer all your questions. ||I have given them four stars, one because the room was very small and noisy ( you have to appreciate that this is a city centre location and the trade up is that if your room is situated street facing it’s inevitable that you will hear revellers after midnight and sometimes very early noisy deliveries/ refuse collection) it is no fault of the hotel though! ||We did asked to be moved to a quieter room and this was handled well and swiftly. ||There was a strange musty smell on the corridor of floor 3 at times. ||Thanks to all the staff at the hotel who made us very welcome and looked after us

We were without hot water for our entire holiday, which meant cold (or no) showers/bath. We felt that not enough effort was made by management to find a solution. No explanation given to any guests for very long outage. There should have been an arrangement made with another hotel or leisure centre to offer showers. That said, the Manager did offer some welcome compensations, once requested.

So disappointed with the service; all staff were aware there was no hot water but allowed us to check in, unpack and get settled and then when we realised that night there was no hot water they said ' we are waiting for a part to come from Paris, have a free drink'... We stayed 4 nights and the 'part' never arrived- seems there is no courier service in France ??? The night Receptionist was sullen and unresponsive to our plight; her ability to speak English diminished every time we asked for a resolution. I feel that they should have been transparent and upfront when we checked in and allowed us to make the choice to find an alternative... Albert was lovely and the location is superb, shame about the flaky staff and abysmal customer service.

Muhammad made the experience at the bar a lot of fun. Good atmosphere and service. He was very attentive to our needs. Hotel staff was always very friendly and helpful. Rooms were cleaned regularly and comfortable.

Ich kann gar nicht genug betonen, wie enttäuschend unser Aufenthalt im Hotel Beau Rivage war. Zimmer: Das Zimmer war stark abgewohnt, dunkel und in einem Zustand, den ich in einem angeblichen 4-Sterne-Hotel nicht erwartet hätte. Flecken auf den Teppichen, ein muffiger Geruch und das Bad war so alt, dass ich mir nicht sicher war, ob es jemals renoviert wurde. Es gab keine Mischbatterie in der Badewanne, und die Rohre waren ziemlich laut. Die Bettwäsche war defekt und staubig, wurde aber am 2. Tag ausgetauscht. Aber was hier gar nicht geht... man bekommt keine Handtücher! An unserem ersten Tag hatten wir nur 2 ganz dünne Badetücher. Danach gab es dazu noch einen Duschteppich. Aber Handtücher existieren hier nicht. Sauberkeit: Wenn man Staubflocken liebt, ist man hier richtig. Der Boden war nicht richtig gesaugt, und im Bad fand ich Haare, die definitiv nicht von mir stammten. Einfach eklig. Einmal haben wir das Treppenhaus genommen. Das war ein Schock - Dreck, Schimmel, Löcher in den Wänden... Service: Nicht sehr gastorientiert und überfordert. Das Check In und Check Out waren in Ordnung, aber im Restaurant war die Bedienung nicht so gut. Obwohl es nicht viel zu tun gab, standen die Kellner an der Wand oder am Empfangstresen und haben die Tische gar nicht zwischendurch abgeräumt. Auch wurde man nicht nach einem Refill für den Kaffee gefragt, da musste man selbst aktiv werden. Frühstück: Das sogenannte Frühstück war in Ordnung. Die Auswahl war nicht sehr groß, aber angemessen. Nicht so ganz 4 Sterne, wie ich es kenne. Dazu hat man hier mit Speisewärmer gearbeitet, die eine extreme Hitze erzeugt haben. Am 1. Tag erschien ich in einem Sweater (Winterzeit), was sich als ein Fehler erwiesen hat. Ich ging ganz verschwitzt aus dem Restaurant raus. Lage: Die Lage ist zwar zentral, aber das ist auch der einzige Pluspunkt. Fazit: Für den Preis gibt es definitiv bessere Hotels in Nizza. Ich würde niemandem empfehlen, hier zu übernachten. Das Beau Rivage ist ein Reinfall auf ganzer Linie. Aber schaut euch einfach die Bilder an.

Great hotel. Clean, fairly spacious for a hotel room in a prime location in France. Walking distance to shops and the coast. Great service. Somewhat updated in the room but it did great. During peak hours we found trouble getting ourselves a parking spot as quickly as we normally would, since the hotel doesn't have its own parking garage. Regardless, I'd recommend this hotel to any visitor and I'd consider staying here again.

My fiance and I really enjoyed our time at the Beau Rivage. We were fortunate enough to get one of the more updated rooms but other family members had outdated rooms compared to ours. So be sure to request an updated room! The staff here are friendly and accommodating. They are quick to help if you need anything. The rooms are perfect for 2 people. I'm not sure if they have any bigger rooms but 3 adults would be a squeeze if you have to put a cot in the room. The location is prime!! We are close to the beach, a bunch of restaurants and shops. Every night we walked along promenade des anglais for dinner / drinks. Given its location some nights were noisy due to the local restaurants and you can hear the music until 12-1am. This hotel is also a 20 minute walk to the train station if you wish to visit Antibes / Cannes. There are also multiple car rental companies within a 3-5 minute walk if you prefer renting a car. We purchased breakfast for our stay and they served until 10:30am. Plenty of options to choose from at the buffet but it was the same items every day. Dispite other reviews, we had a very pleasant stay given the price!

This hotel is in the perfect location, has a very kind and helpful staff, & a nice breakfast, as well as it's own beach club. It is not the fanciest, and I sure wish the AC was stronger, but they were kind enough to give us a fan to supplement it. Many hotels here do not have AC at all, so please don't take that as a complaint.

This is worst hotel I've ever stayed at ever. Rooms aren't bad, but the whole place smells & the staff are excruciating, even by French standards.

This hotel is at a perfect location while you're in Nice. It is directly across from the beach and they also have their own restaurant and private beach access. The hotel staff were courteous and very friendly and helpful. We got an instant upgrade! Our room is beautiful with their brown wood shutters and the only complaint is the bathroom which is a bit smaller and the shower protector doesn't work very well because water always escapes and drowns the floor. The beds are very big I believe it is a king size. The room is very spacious with lots of drawer space too. There is a safe in the room also which is a plus. Their breakfast is amazing! We finally get to have some bacon, sausages and eggs! An American style breakfast! They also have a lot of pastries and fresh fruits, juices, water, coffee, and cold meats if you prefer. It's so nice to walk in and out of our hotel and be right at Old Town Nice. Wonderful hotel!

Considering the price, it's OK as other hotels were more expensive. Good location as it's right next to Marche Aux Flouri (a.k.a farmer's market). It uses the parking lot in the Marche (20 euro per night) and you can go in and out. The room was ordinary.. and a bit outdated but it was spacious. Water pressure was a bit weak. Breakfast is 20 euro but I would not recommend it as it doesn't even have pancake or other eggs except for boiled egg and scrambled egg... You can get nice coffee with crepe/croissant and cheese etc for around 10 euro at most restaurants nearby. Friendly staff. Free wifi.

Great place for lunch, good service and food, the children's menu is exceptional.

I'm going to start by the worst and last that happened. I ordered a taxi the night before our departure, they got us "private van" and the trip was 35 EUROS to the Airport! OUTRAGEOUS for a less than 7km/4.5 miles trip. You'd think someone in the Front desk could tell you about the price, right? This hotel is clearly understaffed in the Front desk, 90% of the time there was only one person here and that was never enough for a number of guests so high like this hotel. One Front desk agent told us we couldn't get coffee before 7am (that's when the breakfast buffet opens), HELLO, HOW ABOUT ROOM SERVICE??? Jeez. Our room faced the front street of the hotel (not the water) and the strange windows didn't close all the way, so the room was never dark. We had such a lovely time in Nice, too bad this hotel was just the opposite. The breakfast is very expensive.

While i've been writing reviews, it was hard to remember any other review after this one! This hotel is in an AMAZING location and is completely gorgeous. The staff are friendly and the rooms are beautiful. When you step outside the hotel door, you just have to walk left, cross the street and you're at the beach. I love the pebbled stone theme that they have throughout the hotel. Once you head to the waters, you'll see the same stones that are very indicative of the beach in NIce. The hotel is nested within a quieter street, and surrounded by great restaurants, public transportation and the down town area's central courtyard. We went during the holidays, so there was xmas lights and festivities going on. Amazing coffee and bakeries all around and just 400m away from a boulevard of shopping. I hope to go back soon and couldn't imagine staying anywhere else. When in Nice make sure you eat at L'Ovale!!! http://www.yelp.com/biz/l-ovale-nice#hrid:PaWLsFeI5rcvbNNbInzFpw

ONE STAR only for their WiFi connection - sloooowww and disconnects frequently! The location, however, is 5 stars!!!

We had semi-high expectations for this hotel after seeing all the high (5 star) reviews on here, but ended up being fairly let down...there was no DND sign for our room door, so the maid walked in on us once and we were unable to avoid our daily cleaning service as we usually do at other hotels. Also our room felt and smelled of mildew the entire time, which made our clothes and the sheets feel damp. The staff was overall very nice and it was a very good location, but the hotel itself was below par so I have to give it 2 stars...if we could do it over again, we would pay more for better quality.

Perfect location, close to the water, it's not a grand hotel most of the rooms are compact. Modern nautical design. They pump in this sandalwood vanilla scent in the lobby. I think it was developed by Creed, always think of Nice when I smell sandalwood now. We had the larger suite seen in photos 4,8,10 &11 (on hotel website) that has a private terrace. Amazing way to end a vacation.

My husband and I took a roadtrip through France and stayed at the Hotel Beau Rivage during our time in Nice. It was a splurge for us as far as how much we were willing to spend on our rooms, but since this was the beach part of our vacation we wanted to stay at a nicer place. Our room was one of the suites with a partial Ocean view (we faced a building across the street but could see the ocean if we leaned out of our balcony). Very clean, modern decor, nice bathroom, and large with a super comfy bed. We loved every aspect of our room and liked the location of the hotel as well (right on the beach and a block or so away from the flower/antique market). The one downside to our trip was that on the night of our arrival we had some issues with parking (long story short, my husband spent over an hour trying to park the car as we could not get into the lot that the hotel has a deal with due to an issue on their part, parked in a more expensive lot, and was not comped for it like they said they would). This left us rather annoyed because most hotels, especially nicer ones will comp you regardless of the circumstance as good customer service. This hotel essentially said "the person who was working did not write this down to confirm so we cannot do that for you" ie., "we don't think you're telling the truth so too bad." That's the main reason they get 4 stars rather than 5 because otherwise the trip was great. Some things to know before you go: - the bar across the street is not related to the hotel, they just have the same name, so you cannot put drinks and food on your tab at the hotel - if you are really into going to the beach and want to visit the south of France for that, Nice is about 95% pebble beach. It's a great city for a variety of other reasons (like close location to Italy, Monaco, and the downtown), but there may be other cities to stay that have more sand options. This hotel, though, is within walking distance of the one small patch of man-made sand beach that exists in Nice.

Excellent service here from the front desk service. Great room size. The location is very convenient (walking distance to the beach and very close to the market square where there are tons of restaurants to eat). The Castle Hill is also walking distance from the hotel. The only not so good part about the hotel is the spotty wifi service. Still highly recommend here.
