We were due to stay at another hotel nearby who "apparently" had an electrical issue with our rooms (2 couples...both rooms?) so we were asked to locate to the Hotel Busby for one night. 1st impressions are not good. Reception area is ok but hallways are very unwelcoming and dark and the rooms are very old fashioned. Reminiscent of the... More

just returned from a trip to Nice with friends. Stayed at this hotel, not by choice, but our booking with La Malmaison hotel was no longer registered on their new computer system, and they were fully booked. Hotel & rooms are very clean, but rooms extremely dated & in need of a revamp. Rooms are a good size but carpet... More

I stayed here with a dear friend on a spur of the moment trip to France. We booked last minute and must say that we were pleasantly surprised with the size of the room for the price we paid. The location was great, we were easily able to walk to the train with our wheelie luggage and it's a pleasant... More

We stayed here for our Contiki tour. It's like a family hotel and it's walking distance to the beach. Only downside is it has a super tiny lift and it's a very old hotel. The room decor is very old, the only thing that is new is the TV, which does not have any English channels. The bed is a... More

Nice was only a stopover for my group of friends, so this hotel was perfect for us. The room was very small, as was the bathroom but it suited our needs. The hotel was within easy walking distance to the beach, the square and many restaurants. We had four singles in our room and a tiny balcony overlooking the street,... More

The double room we stayed in was very large - more than what you would expect from a suite in a 4 star, pleasant decor, very good condition, very clean. If you choose to stay in a 3 star hotel in Nice, i would definetely recommend it. Please note that rooms with two twin/full beds generally tend to be much... More

The hotel is old. For me the hotel is less than 3 stars. The facade was dirty but the rooms was cleen. The furniture in the room was wooden, pure quality and very old. If the window is closed, the room is quiet. If the window is open there is a little noise from the street (for us, it was... More

Just got back from school trip. We travelled with EF. The Busby was a great location and easy walking to the beach, shops and all the action. The rooms could use better lighting but the staff was friendly and it was nice. I would suggest some upgrades in decor but overall, it was fine.

we were with a group of tourist from Trafalgar. Cannot believe this hotel exist in the best part of Nice, France. Nothing is at par base on hotel standards. I would rate a motel better than this. The bathroom is unbelievably tiny. When you drop your soap, you will most likely bump your head in the shower knob while picking... More
