Booked the Mercure through Expedia after reading lots of good reviews. Spent 3 nights for a last minute break, booking a sea view 3rd floor refurbished room with breakfast thrown in. Hotel is about a 20 minute taxi ride from the airport, you can see the airport across the bay from the balcony but noise from planes not a problem.... more

Loved the hotel! Found the hotel very easily from the airport bus and found a warm welcome, and a spacious, clean and comfortable room! We had booked a refurbished room and were on the top floor of the hotel, but it is the 3rd floor of the building as the Meridian Hotel is ABOVE the Mercure!! Had lovey view over... more

The receptionists were friendly and helpful. The room was simple but clean and spacious. One of the very few hotels in our entire trip where we could open both our suitcases and still had room to walk around. The hotel is centrally located; close to Nice city centre and Nice Ville Station. There are hundreds of eating places within 5... more

We chose this hotel for a cheap and cheerful weekend break after reading reviews on this site, and were very satisfied overall. As stated elsewhere, it is a 3 star hotel in a 5 star location. All the staff were friendly and helpful, receptionists were happy to recommend restaurants, give directions, etc. A bar/lounge area would have been a bonus,... more

The rooms are modern and clean. The location is fantastic, right in front of the Promenade des Anglais. There are a lot of bars and restaurants near the hotel, which is very convenient. I really liked the hotel! more

We had a wonderful holiday in Nice. The weather was fabulous. We went to the beach twice and went swimming. The hotel has the best location, across the street from the Mediterranean, close to the Marché des Fleurs, the bus station, restaurants, etc. The hotel was very comfortable, breakfast plentiful; included eggs, sausages, bacon, croissants, toast, cereal, brioches, baguettes, fruit,... more

The location is excellent but the hotel is very basic, bare walls to the rooms painted with unpleasant colours. There is no lobby, but a small room with a counter and a few dirty seats, like any low standard bed&breakfast. Unkind receptionists, unwilling to accept a complain for lack of room confort. Very much below typical Mercure chain standards. more

This hotel is relatively expensive for a 3-star hotel, but it's worth it purely for its superb location, being attached to the 4-star Le Meridien. Although the combined complex sits on the Promenade des Anglais, the main drag and seafront promenade of Nice, the entrance to the Mercure is tucked away on the left of the building, fronting Rue Halevy,... more

Stayed at the Mercure Nice Promenade des Anglais for a business trip end of September 2009. The location is great (just cross the street to get to the beach, a few minutes walk to old Nice), although it can be very loud (traffic, street musicians - well, this may be nothing compared to NYC, but anyway). The room was spacious,... more
