The room is spotless and very comfortable, with a beautiful terrace where you can sunbathe, eat breakfast in your room with a wonderful view of the sea and the whole city, with a totsle privacy.
The quality of sleep is perfect because no noise is heard, all the staff is very kind, helpful and attentive to every customer need, make you feel at ease as if you were at home.
Breakfast offers a wide choice and is of high quality.
We had a great time and thank you all for the wonderful hospitality.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED
The room we were given was on a higher floor and larger but very dark and gloomy. There was a table with chairs outside but it was only when we went out to have a look round did we realise that there was a deep well to our left with some kind of extraction fan at the bottom. The noise made it impossible to sit out and it was very unattractive. . Also, no garden view, we looked out over another room and a walkway which led up to the roof so there were people walking by quite regularly and fully able to look into our room ( which had large windows) unless we drew the curtains. Even more gloom. The shower head in this room was also partly blocked, water only came out of a side and was extremely hot.. Every day I reported it but nothing was done. We stayed with the second room as it was clear when we changed from the first that it was not something the hotel was particularly happy doing. I don’t think they felt there was really anything wrong with the original room.
The restaurant is attractive and the breakfasts good. We ate there the first night , a good meal. The staff were mostly very pleasant.
We travel regularly and can’t remember a time when we had such unsatisfactory rooms. The hotel seems happy to allocate these inferior rooms to guests who didn’t book a sea view. To describe them as having a garden view is inaccurate.
We plan to come back to Nice next spring as part of a tour of the coast but we will definitely not be staying at La Perouse.

Excellent views from our balcony and also from the 'solarium' on the roof.
Enjoyed breakfasts very much - good location with seating inside or out, weather permitting. Excellent menu, but disappointed that omelettes weren't included in the standard breakfast rate - a plain one would have been no more effort to make than scrambled eggs, but cost an extra 8 €.
Room was comfortable, with a good-sized balcony in our case and an attractive bathroom, but the shower over the bath was pretty basic by today's standards.
Lifts didn't give a good first impression, being cramped, tired-looking and rather slow and we used the stairs where possible, but unfortunately, there was no avoiding the lifts between reception and the first floor.
Service overall was good, with helpful staff. However, room service was variable and consumables, e.g. loo paper were not always topped up.
Checking out took longer than expected with just one person on the desk and people waiting to be served, but we were pleased with the fixed-price private taxi they arranged for us to the airport.
Overall, glad we stayed and would recommend the hotel.



As others have mentioned the layout is a bit quirky and gets a little getting used to, and is certainly a challenge for those with mobility issues. There is quite a difference in the rooms also, even within the same category. The pictures on the web don’t provide enough detail in my opinion. ASK QUESTIONS when booking. I asked quite a few and was always met with polite and detailed replies, so upon arrival there were no surprises and we were more than pleased with our room. I would not categorize them as large, we have stayed previously a few times at Le Meridien and the rooms there are larger, but more modern in decor. The bathrooms were a good size, but I am not sure if they were also included in the renovation as it is hard to imagine baths not being equipped with walk in showers in this day and age. That would be my only quibble. The staff is attentive and always willing to help. The breakfast is very good and plentiful. We enjoyed dinner in the restaurant one evening, it was an excellent meal, and we are foodies from NY who know good food. Like Paris, it is possible to have a bad meal in Nice, but the restaurant here is very good, and the outdoor setting romantic- though it can be a little buggy.
This hotel more than met our expectations and I would not hesitate to recommend or stay again.
