“Great location and accommodations”

Fantastic location, comfortable bed and great breakfast. Absolutely no complaints about the accommodations. I took the most basic room with the bed upstairs and it was comfortable. The staff was friendly and accommodating . Walk out of the hotel and the beach is right there. You are adjacent to old Nice and 3 minutes walking to plaza Messina . Bus #12 will take you to the hotel from the airport. Would definitely recommend The only down side is the hotel provides soap but not hair conditioner

“Promenade Perks but Room for Improvement”

The Mercure Hotel is beautifully situated on the Promenade des Anglais, offering a prime location right on Nice's seafront. It’s just a minute’s walk from the bustling Marché Aux Fleurs and the charming cobbled streets of the old town. The nearest tram stop, Opera, provides easy access to the rest of Nice, including the airport (with one change at Jean Médecin). The hotel features a small lobby with a quaint seating area that doubles as a bar. There are two floors of rooms, and the breakfast room is located in the basement. Unfortunately, this setup is not wheelchair-accessible, as there is no lift available. Check-in was swift and friendly. My initial room, a standard one, was beautifully furnished but somewhat limited in functionality - fine for a solo traveler. The bed was only accessible from one side due to a pillar, which restricted movement around it. However, the room had two Juliet balconies, allowing natural light to flood in despite being overshadowed by the opera house across the alley. The bathroom was modern and included a walk-in shower. As an Accor loyalty member entitled to upgrades, I enquired at reception and was moved to a privilege room. This room was more spacious, with an added armchair for relaxation, a larger bathroom, a coffee machine, and a mini fridge. However, the view was less inspiring, facing the flat roof of an adjacent property, and the air conditioning struggled to heat the room adequately during the winter months. The Wi-Fi was sufficient at 20 Mbps but lacked stability. The privilege room also included a vanity area, a wardrobe, and adequate power outlets. The hotel provides thoughtful touches like refillable water stations in the corridors and complimentary sweets in the bar area. Overall, I would categorize this hotel as functional rather than luxurious. While the location is unbeatable and some features are commendable, it lacks the coziness and comfort I look for in a stay at this price point. Having stayed here before, I’m unlikely to return, as there are better options within the Accor brand nearby.

“Not what we have come to expect from Mercure/Accor, but some aspects of the space and location were good.”

There was a shortage of staff to help us with our luggage up the entryway to the hotel. A/C repair works complete with a pail and plastic covers greeted us at reception and outside of our room, which was adjacent. The ante-room provided privacy and quiet from the hall.

There was a shortage of staff to help us with our luggage up the entryway to the hotel. A/C repair works complete with a pail and plastic covers greeted us at reception and outside of our room, which was adjacent. The ante-room provided privacy and quiet from the hall. The room itself was spacious and tastefully decorated, although the bathroom and toilet were a bit cramped. The use of paper cups for our welcome drinks seemed off putting. The window view of our room facing the promenade was blocked by an 18 wheeler which parked right outside. The early morning pickups and drop offs of supplies woke us up in the wee hours of the morning. There was a strange intermittent, yet constant buzzing sound that kept us awake. None of the electronics on the bedside worked, including USB charging outlets, phone, and the battery of the safe conked out. We could hear the opening and shutting of the automatic doors from our room, which was on the first level facing the front. The staff couldn't do anything to address these issues, while we were there. Unfortunately, as an Accor member and for the price we paid, this was not up to scratch. We made the most of it, but we wouldn't book here again or recommend it to others.
