Nice is one of France's most popular and cosmopolitan holiday destinations, with famous shingle beaches, a pleasant Mediterranean climate and a naturally beautiful location on the spectacular French Riviera. The city is also famous for its vibrant carnival, which takes place each year during the two weeks leading up to Mardi Gras - a final chance to indulge in merriment before lent.

Fantastic guide Deborah. Crowded hotel with enclosed space for breakfast. Last meal in hotel in the restaurant bore no resemblance to first meal in back room. No choice! Wine offered very very late bread came at end of first course. Did not enjoy it. Horrible smell throughout hotel one morning.

Excellent choice of place. Nice is central to lots of spots to the east and the west. Good location for covering the Côte d’Azur.

The holiday did not get off to the best of starts, as the train from Paris got delayed and we were very tired by the time we got to Nice and then had to make our own arrangements for some supper at about 8.45 p.m. However, both Nice and the carnival did not disappoint and the hotel's location was very convenient for sightseeing. We were well looked after by our tour manager (Raquel - a fluent French speaker) who worked hard to make sure everyone enjoyed themselves. A word of advice for future visitors - pack some thermal underwear, as it can get a trifle chilly sitting in the stands watching the parade at night!
