I think the hotel is definitely over rated. The place is old, and the entrance through a courtyard and old steps does give a bad first impression. Though very clean, our room was small, the baseboards were peeling, the floor creaked. The bathroom was not much bigger than a broom closet. The toilet was placed in one corner, and one's... More

We got a fantastic welcome from the owner when checking in at 12am. Was explained the location of the hotel, the house rules etc. It actually feels more like you are staying in an apartment in Nice, but with cleaning service! The location is just top for shopping, beach, old town and airport bus. They offer beach towels when you... More

It's not the place for you if you are looking for 24-hr concierge and typical hotel facility. But if you are looking for a cozy room with friendly staff at a great location, you've come to the right place. Hotel Rex is just off the Plaza Massena, one of the landmarks in Nice. The tram station is at the doorstep... More

This hotel for the price is in an excellent location! For the price of it, you can't beat it. I have read some of the other reviews and I saw that some of the people were complaining about all the stairs????? The smell???? There might of been a slight old smell, but the building is old!, nothing to bother us.... More

This hotel is close to everything. The train station is only about 10 minutes walk away and take the tram to get there to the hotel is you're coming by train. It only cost 1 euro versus a very expensive taxi ride. The guys that run the hotel give very good directions in the email on how to get there... More

Great little hotel in an excellent location. You are so close to evertthing, beach, shops restaurants and yet it's nice and quiet. The rooms are clean, have air con and all the basics. The staff here are very friendly and so welcoming everytime they see you. This is such a great little hotel and a great deal for a stay... More

We are so pleased that we put aside our doubts about staying in a 1 star hotel and trusted the Trip Advisor reviews. This hotel and its owner were delightful. First impressions were a bit worrying but once inside the rooms are charming and very clean with large comfortable beds. The owner made us feel so welcome and provided an... More

We selected this hotel based on the reviews on Trip Advisor and found it exactly as people had described it.. i.e. clean, quiet and convenient being in the centre of Nice and not far from the beach and great restaurants and exclusive shopping strip. The hotel staff were welcoming and helpful recommending an excellent seafood restaurant about one minute away... More

We have returned today from a wonderful two night stay at the Rex and wish we could have stayed longer. We will definitely be returning. The location could not be beaten. Right in the midst of all the shops and restaurants you could need and only a five minute walk to the beach. Trains, buses and trams all easily accessible.... More
