Hotel Emeraude - Antibes-Juan-les-Pins

7.0

It is a time someone to offer a good interactive map of Sophia Antipolis and to comment rules of driving there.

Very welcoming , helpful and accommodating staff , our room was ready and available well ahead of standard check-in time .A room was room made available for us to shower on day of departure for us to make the most of our last day on the beach !!.Very relaxed and laid back atmosphere in the hotel. Ideally located for access to beach & town centre.

4.7

Very very expensive breakfast for 2 pieces of bread and a croissant + small orange juice and very small coffee. Very small room and very small shower

9.1

The service was excellent - personal and welcoming. The room was nice, what one would expect from a three star. It did have a safe. Location of the hotel is terrific and has a lovely garden for breakfast.

8.6

8.4

Tanto a mi familia como a mi, nos gustó bastante, es pequeñito, pero cuqueton, tranquilo, limpio y empleado muy amable.Lo único que le hace falta es un poquito de organización en el espacio donde se desayuna (pequeño) pero la terraza cuando se pueda usar por el buen tiempo, excelente, ademas tiene ascensor, justo para poder subir el equipaje, que ya se agradece, quedamos contentos. Both my family and me, we liked a lot, is very small, but cuqueton, quiet, clean and employed a single amable.Lo it needs is a little organization in the area where breakfast (small), but when the terrace can be used by the good weather, excellent, is also a lift, just to be able to upload the luggage, which was appreciated, we were happy.

6.1

hotel was nice, close to town centre and resonably priced, however management must have trained at Faulty Towers.

8.4

Very nice hotel in a quiet place, just 3 minutes from Juan les Pins centre (with all the clubs, duscos, shops, etc). Very nice and friendly staff. My room was not as spacious as promised on the picture (single room) though it was enough for 1 person. Air conditioning was the only saviour in that heat!

We were intially a little dissapointed at the quality but given the price we were probably unrealistic given alternative accommodation in the area. Once moved from a larger family room for 6 to a smaller family room for 2-4 we were a lot happier. It suited 2 adults and 1 child alot better probably as it was one large room which seemed to have more space. Unfortunately the cooling in the room we were moved to didn't work so we had to rely on a breeze from the window. This wasn't so bad The hosts though were great and really made us feel welcome. We were able to use a laptop for email (for free), use their premises to have a BBQ or order Pizza, watch a huge projecter screen (tennis final was great!)and they even gave us a lift to the airport at half the price of the local taxi service! Michael and Andy treated all their guests like they were friends and it provided for a really friendly place to stay. Absolute champions they were! We loved our holiday and wished we could have stayed longer.

3.1

The staff is kind but not so professional. A nice hotel for students if the price wasn´t so high. You can find much better (higher standard) hotels in the surroundings for the same price. The hotel is not worth 3 stars, just one.

7.9

Surely will choose this hotel again when we visit Juan-les-Pins. Hotel is pretty suitable for young travellers, a place to meet friends, especilly English speakers.

7.5

Well situated hotel between Antibes and Cannes, but a car would probably be needed to get around and the hotel only has street parking. The owner is very friendly and the hotel has a very relaxed vibe.

9.9

A very charming hotel. Truly a "family owned" facility.Located in a quiet neighborhood it was the perfect answer after all the bustle in Paris. Owners speak excellent English. I would recommend this facility to all. Need to change contact phone # on web site, it is missing the (0). It is on the brochure but missing on the confirmtion page you travel with.

9.7

The seven of us who stayed at Emeraude were delighted with the hotel, both in terms of its character and in terms of the hospitality and helpfulness of the owners. We would love to stay there again and will recommend it to friends and family.

7.4

Peccato per uno spiacevole inconveniente di overbooking appena arrivati... ma alla fine i due gentilissimi gestori sono riusciti nel fornirci una soluzione alternativa diversa, ma eccellente!

6.9

we had a lovely stay, the owners were very relaxed and helpfull even helping us sort out or laundry issues! a short stroll to the bustle of the main beach area where we were surprised to have to pay for a spot! As Australians we found this strange but could understand it with the beaches being so small.

2.4

This is Fawlty Towers on the French Riviera with an excellent location only 2 minutes to Juan Les Pin centre. I will not stay at this hotel again - no value for money stay elsewhere.

9.5

On arrival at the hotel it was nice to get free parking for the first time and also being shown where the room was, where to put the car and to see how close the town was for later on. The two brothers were very welcoming, spoke excellent french for englishmen and most importantly were genuinely nice guys. I enjoyed many a chat with them and found them very friendly - offering us good tips on food and bars for the evening. The outside terrace was lovely (as per the pictures) and the inside bar / sitting room was a good place to lounge in the afternoon. The best place was the few min walk to the Juan les Pins town and the bubbly nightlife with excellent beach (sand not gravel like most of the coast). The room itself was well cleaned and excellent value for money. A touche small it had a good sized bed and sun kissed balcony for lazing with a book. Overall, the location, price and welcome were second to none.

8.9

Very nice hotel, quite surrondings, nice breakfast in the garden. I like the level of the service. Nice view from the window. Close to the city center.

8.5

We (two adults and a 1,5year old boy) had an enjoyable stay at the hotel. The staff was really helpful and friendly. The room was nice but not very spacious. The location was brilliant. I would definetly recommend it.

9.7

a great value. we were fortunate and got the room in the picture, so there were no surprises. we thought the service was great for a great price in a great location and would stay there again in a heartbeat.

7.2

We were staying in the hotel during the winter mid-season, when we practically seemed to be the only guests. We could also enjoy the owner's informal and kind hospitality and pleasant conversation. We love animals and therefore we were amused by the presence of a nice dog. Still, we suggest to always inform the clientele of the presence of animals in the hotel: someone couldn't appreciate it.

Hospitality and friendliness of the staff was outstanding. A charming house set back a few minutes walk from the town centre.

9.9

Probably the most charming and well located hotel during our 3 weeks in France

3.0

This was more like a second rate youth hostel than a 3 star hotel. The room was tiny and the walls dirty and paper thin. The floors and stairs creaked loudly and the doors could do with oiling and some kind of device to stop them slamming. Not peaceful! The towels were grey and not replaced with any frequency. The lobby/reception was still locked at 8.15am and I was unable to check out and unable to retrieve the property I had left at reception. The property has not, to date,(02.10.04) been returned to me despite repeated requests since my visit in late August. There is a thin line between being laid-back/casual and being unprofessional. The brothers who run this establishment are unprofessional. They clearly know nothing about hotel management and neither do they care about their guests. It's a shame because the location is half-decent and the building has potential. Not worth the money. GO ELSEWHERE!

8.0

This is a beautiful hotel and in an excellent location, 2 minutes to Juan Les Pin centre, the coast and about 10 minutes walk to the train station. Breakfast was an extra €8 and was very basic but the hotel is fabulous and the rooms were lovely. It is a boutique hotel and it does cost more than average to stay here. I would stay here again if I was not on a limited budget.

9.6

A nice bed and breakfast with a 5-minute walk down to Juan les Pins. The hotel is a great starting point to explore Antibes and the Cap by bicycle or car. The hotel is run by two young Englishmen who are very welcoming and accommodating. One thing that is not posted on the website is that the office closes at 10pm. We did not arrive in Antibes until 10:30, however, the staff waited for us and made sure that we had a room even though the hotel was full. One of the highlights was coffee, croissants and baggettes in the courtyard each morning. A very relaxing way to start the day. We would defintely stay there again.

5.2

The rooms were too little, airconditioning did not work. We were surprised that the prices given did not include breakfast, which made a considerable difference, almost 180 Euro, compared to given price via internet and you.

8.3

A very well presented, small 'boutique' hotel, run by two young (multi-lingual) Englishmen who are brothers. Our room (No 12) had its own balcony, was well appointed and comfortable. The hotel has a 'Faulty Towers' feel about it, which added to its charm, but a lack of organisation detracted from the level of service provided. Overall - A nice hotel in a secure, quiet location within easy walking distance of the beaches and the heart of Juan Lapin.

9.9

Excellent privately run hotel - vastly better to my mind than staying in an impersonal large hotel. Made to feel very welcome - treated well - lovely breakfast in the courtyard.

9.8

nice place . Excellent and familiar service

8.7

Lovely laid back hotel, excellent location, good parking opportunities. Would go again and would recommend.
