Nice Hotel Guide - La Maison du Portal hotels in Nice, France.

"I would give the staff 6 stars if I could. Awesome staff there, the room and overall experience exceeded my expectations. Would definitely come back this way on a motorcycle one day. The road here from Nice was awesome to drive on - The locals are friendly, the area is surrounded by all sorts of little gems. Even extended my stay by a day."

"Fantastic location in the Alps, with easy reach to Menton, Monaco and other seaside locations. The property provides you with a well-equipped kitchen and terrace on the top level and a lovely double bedroom, living room area, shower room and utility room on the lower level, accessible either via an internal spiral staircase or through the garden. The property is pet friendly and has the garden secured which was ideal for our two dogs, giving them plenty of space to explore. We drove there from UK and despite the narrow roads in some places, our ford C max was ok to reach everywhere we wanted to go.The host, Claude, has been fantastic, providing us with useful information of how to get to the property and what we can see/do around the area. We have been fortunate enough to get to see a bit of their family history, Claude arranging with her brother-in-law to show us the family olive oil mill, where they still produce their own olive oil (Many thanks to Lucien too for showing us around and explaining us the process of producing the oil). Overall we’ve had a fantastic holiday and hopefully we will go back again in the coming years. "

"Excellent property with ideal location for visiting Nice, Monaco, St Paul de Vence etc. Sandrine was very welcoming and made our stay very easy and pleasant despite our tardy arrival at gone midnight ! Highly recommended. As others have mentioned, a car is essential "

"Great hostel, great service."

"A beautiful location with stunning views. The property was lovely with lots of charm and character. It was also well equipped with everything we needed and was very comfortable. The swimming pool was perfect and a great place to relax with the family. Liz and Quintin were great hosts and made the whole experience welcoming and easy. Thank you. "

"The desk staff was extremely friendly and helpful. We booked through Expedia, so the fact that the kitchen was only available if you stayed 3 nights did not come through. This was the end of our trip, and I was tired, so I didn't think to ask. They would have unlocked it for me if I had. Just a misunderstanding on my part. The lobby was really interesting. The hallway leading to the elevator to the rooms needs some attention. The vestibule flooring is a tripping hazard. Also, the hall lighting on the room floors needs to be motion activated. Having to find the light switch in the dark is not safe."

"We love the guest house; it is a home away from home. The furniture is up to date and very comfortable. It was clean, organized and ample space. The hosts are very amiable and extremely attentive. The house is about 20 minutes away from the airport and city life. We enjoyed relaxing by the poolside as well as admiring the picturesque mountains the south of France has to offer. "
