Castello della Lucertola

The hotel is close to the Eiffel Tower and Arc it’s easily accessible by walking, but the hotel itself looks very used and not very well maintained the door hinge would make it automatically close as broken in my room and the room just overall looked dingy and with the smallest room I’ve ever been in and I’m from New York. If you’re deciding between this and another option, pick the other option.

The Maison Durante was the perfect find in Nice. We came here after spending our first 4 nights in Cannes. The property was a quick walk about 2 blocks from the Nice Ville train. The hotel was exactly what I was looking for; a true French boutique. There is a courtyard with wrought iron table and chairs and trees for shade which is the perfect place for your early morning coffee. The hotel offers made-to-order breakfast but we already had outside reservations for our 2 nights in Nice. The room was beautifully decorated and clean. The staff was also wonderful and was proactive in making sure we had all the information we needed for arriving from Cannes and for our plans for the rest of our Riviera holiday. The location was convenient, close to the train and trams yet an easy 15 minute walk to the beach and other sights. Overall, a lovely stay and I would absolutely book here again.

Great location, centrally located. Also close to the beach and to restaurants with a bonus of a deli and a grocery store across the street.
