Review summary

Based on recent reviews

Hotel Carlton Nice enjoys a superb location, within easy walking distance to the Promenade and close to the train station, with Avenue Victor Hugo offering convenient access to all of Nice's amenities. Guests find the rooms clean and some appreciate the spacious feeling of the rooms, particularly those with balconies overlooking the greenery, and the presence of a kettle and fridge. While the breakfast is generally liked, some found the pillow quality to be less than ideal. Overall, its central location near the beach and shops, without being in the middle of the hustle, makes it a popular choice.

The location was very nice. It was so close to the sea! The staff were super friendly, always ready to help with a smile. They were fantastic! My room was clean, and the fresh towels were a real treat. Plus, the hotel is near many great restaurants. The dining options are endless!

The lift felt a little shaky, it made a strange noise.

I had a nice room with air conditioning. The bathroom included a big shower, which I liked. I appreciate the hotel allowed me to leave my luggage before check-in and after check-out. It was great that the hotel is just a short walk to the beach.

The decor feels little outdated, though it was very clean.
