Hotel Brice - Nice

7.7

Excellent location, very pleasant garden

6.5

Hotel is located short walk to sea front, 4-5 minutes. Location is good. Also close to main shopping area & tram line. The hotel is in need of modernisation, my room was poorly furnished. The bathroom was cramped I had to climb over the toilet to get to the shower & there was a nastly smell from the plumbing. My room was located at the rear of the building & was noisy several nights. I must compliment the reception staff who were always helpful & polite. I felt the price was poor value for the facilities provided.

9.7

i stayed in triple room but it was duble with additional and not comfort bad. the price of breakfast is diffrent from your web site. i will recomend this hotel to my friend/ cohava

8.1

Bonne relation qualité / prix. Chambre familiale suffisamment spacieuse pour 2 adultes et 2 enfants.

7.9

I found Brice Hotel to be a comfortable place to stay. I stayed alone in a room with ample space & a bright, cheery quilt on the bed. One strange characteristic of the bathroom though, was the 1/2 door covering the shower. What is with this? Causing a minor flood everytime I took a shower was almost unavoidable! The doors are a little thin & were such that the other guests would slam their doors shut (locks automatically), which was annoying throughout the night. The staff in the restaurant were very friendly and helpful, and the breakfast buffet was perfect, dinner delicious. Front desk staff gets a mix of reviews b/c some people were very friendly & helpful. Others, further in the back, ignored me at the desk until I was standing there for a while or had to say "excusez-moi", even after they'd already looked up at me & continued with what they were doing. It's location is ideally a few blocks from the beach & Promenade des Anglais, and walking distance to Vieux Nice. I'd stay at the Brice again.

7.2

lovely hotel, i stayed in 2 rooms. the double was great value but i think the single was overpriced. there is better value around for the single room market.

Have been to Nice several times before and stayed in higher and equivelant priced accommodation. The hotel Brice gave more than value for money. the reception staff were both friendly and very helpful and the breakfast I would recommend to anyone. The hotel was very well positioned for the town or the sea front. My friends and I had no complaints.

6.1

it's a nice hotel, in the new part of the city. the garden is amazing and the price-quality ratio is OK.

2.8

OLD hotel !!! since Napoleon was alive. but the worse thing about it was an indian guy at reception. We needed to upgrade our room but he was useless. had to wait for another person to appear. Also, before arriving to this place they have blocked some money on my card. normally this does not happen on other venere hotels. Avoid this place.

8.2

Had a small quiet room facing beautiful backyard. Excellent new shower with glass door. Bed would have been too small for two. Marvellous garden breakfast, but close to noisy street. Night staff very cooperative at late arrival. Free use of internet in lobby. No free WiFi in room.

9.0

Good price/performance, excellent location, nice breakfast in the garden

9.1

Very friendly staff. Beautiful and charming garden. We would not hesitate coming back here or recomanding this hotel to others.

7.1

Conforme a lo comentado en el mismo Hotel, se debería mejorar la instalación de agua corriente en los baños.

8.0

Brice is a very nice and well located hotel,a perfect place to start from when exploring Nice. I will certainly recommend it to my friends. The front garden is an extra treat!

7.9

ottima struttura, consigliatissima A++++++++++

1.6

WE WERE BOOKED FOR 8 NIGHTS, THE ROOM WAS SMALL & SMELT MOULDY - IT WAS LOCATED IN A DARK CORNER OF THE HOTEL.ON OUR SECOND NIGHT WATER SEEPED FROM THE HOTEL ROOM ABOVE OURS ONTO OUR LITTLE TELEVISION WHICH HAD A VERY POOR RECEPTION. WE ASKED FOR A DIFFERENT ROOM AS WE WERE STAYING ANOTHER 7 NIGHTS & WERE PROMISED WE WOULD BE ABLE TO CHANGE ROOMS AS SOON AS ONE BECAME AVAILABLE, DESPITE ASKING EVERY DAY WE WERE TOLD THAT THERE WAS NOTHING AVAILABLE. I HAVE STAYED IN HOTELS ALL OVER THE WORLD & THIS WAS BY FAR THE WORST WE EVER STAYED IN

9.2

Our second stay at The Brice was as good as our first. Rooms were of a high standard and the staff were very helpful giving advice on local eating places and ameneties. The hotel is situated within easy reach of the old Nice and the newer parts. We look forward to returning again.

7.6

Hotel Brice was a nice place and we would certainly use it again if we are in Nice. Room was very clean and tidy, and although located on a fairly busy road, if the windows were closed and the shutters dropped it was relatively quiet. Breakfast was good value for money and service excellent. Location is quite good and only a 10-minute walk to the town centre (east) and railway station (north). Bus Stop just over the road and only 1 Euro fare to Bus Station; with links to Monaco and Cannes. I'm sure if you stay at the Hotel Brice you wont be disappointed!

8.6

Lovely hotel with garden in a convenient location in Nice. Staff were friendly and helpful and the bedroom, overlooking the street was large and comfortable. We would go back again to explore NIce and stay here

9.4

An excellent hotel. We stayed there last year and had no doubts about booking again for this year. The garden is really pleasant to relax in the evening. The staff are extremely helpful.

4.3

I understand the difference in 3 star hotels in Europe as compared to those in the USA; however, this by far was NOT a 3 star hotel.

7.4

One room was very good size but the other was small and not refurbished to the same standard. The aircon was ok for the small room but very inadequate for the larger one. The location was very convenient for the rail and promenade

2.6

We stayed for five nights and the quality was very bad. The beds and furniture were old, the carpet was dirty and there was a horrible smell of smoke in the room. You could hear every single noise around in the other rooms. You could not lock the bathroom door, etc.

9.5

Nous avons passé un agréable séjour, l'accueil était exceptionnel, et le personnel charmant. Nous voyagions avec un bb et nous avons bénéficié d'un accueil adapté (lit bb avec 1 vrai matelas, préparation d'un repas). L'hôtel possède un jardin où il fait bon se reposer après une journée de balade. Chambre un peu petite mais propre et calme.

8.0

Fully agree with the expectations. The hotel is really well located and the rooms are OK. Easy to find. The garden is small but really nice and the breakfast is excelent.

6.7

We have stayed here before, enjoyed the convenient location and although the hotel does need renovation overall it was a good experience.This time,our room was not ready on arrival,we ordered drinks and sat in the garden to wait.Ok so far, the drinks never arrived despite prompting after 20 mins. After 45 mins we enquired about our room and were told it was just ready.We were left to find our own way, although as we had been before we knew the layout of the hotel.After 10 minutes the receptionist came into our room.I was in the bathroom and heard the knock, but my husband who was resting on the bed is partially deaf and did not hear the knock.She burst in and said we should be in the room below we had been given the wrong room.So we moved to another on the floor below. The bedroom ceiling had a very stained patch above the air con unit and the bathroom was in dire need of retiling and grouting. It was a bit grotty/manky, and their was no extractor. The sliding wardrobe doors fell off their hinges when first opened and stayed that way until we left.I think it was expensive for the condition of the room. The beds were clean, room spacious and the towels toiletries were ok. I think I will sty somewhere else next time.

9.4

We stayed at Hotel Brice for 2 nights. Great location. A lovely garden to sit in the evenings and to eat breakfast. Breakfast at 12euros was good value for money - a buffet style breakfast with plenty of choice. Staff were helpful and polite. Free use of the computer in the lounge was useful. Our room on the 4th floor was spacious with a good size en suite. The lift went only to the 3rd floor which was not a problem for us but maybe for some guests.

9.2

Hotel Brice is a nice option in NIce to be close to the attractions at a affordable rate. The staff was very friendly and the room worth the rating of a 3 star hotel, it had air conditioning and we were at all the main attractions within a 5 minute walk.

8.8

The hotel was well situated being two blocks from the Promenade des Anglais and close to quality restaurants. The room was quite spacious with pleasant window views and had a safe and fridge. The rooms are a little dated but the staff seemed to be on top of the maintenance issues. The staff were generally very helpful. The breakfast was excellent. There was limited parking available. Overall we enjoyed our stay and would stay there again.

8.2

Un hotel correcto, centrico y familiar. La comida del restaurante bien, y la terraza muy agradable. No tienen Gimnasio, aunque en la web pone que si.

9.7

We travelled to Nice on a girls weekend and were very impressed with Hotel Brice.We loved the outdoor garden with sun loungers.Some of the hotel corridors could use redecoration but the actual rooms were fine and very clean.The staff were great-so friendly and helpful with advice on where to go and how to get there.We tought the breakfast was quite good value as opposed to other places in Nice and ended up having it after our first mornings overpriced croissant elsewhere.We would not hesitate to stay here and have recommended the hotel to eveyone we know

9.1

Great hotel for a stay in Nice. Quick 10 minute walk to the central down town and the pebble beach is close. Nice garden at hotel for relaxing. Booking through venere saved lots of money for me.

3.5

It has a nice garden! The rest is history.

7.7

The hotel was quite good. The recepcionist was a very kind man. The hotel is good, clean and well located. Being Nice is good the relation between price and hotel.

1.9

It was my first time with my family in Nice and Hotel Brice. Very very bad experience. Staff was rude not cooperative. Asked us not to touch anything. Charged more in the end. Lift was out of order. No ironing facility. one spot for internet at reception and that remained always busy. Asked us to keep our room clean. Also window was broken. Only good thing was location. Keep this hotel option in the end, if there will be no option. Not recommended for families especially.

6.2

Checkin was a bit disjointed and seemingly unfriendly, but everything went fine after that. Enjoyed drinks in the courtyard, and the room was reasonable.

8.9

Good hotel, but breakfast should be included on the price.

3.2

I travelled to the Hotel Brice in April 2008. The welcome is very good and the public areas are nice. The location of this hotel is excellent, only a stones throw from the beach and 10 minutes walk from all going out areas and tourist attractions. The room I had was very tired and noisy. I could hear my neighbours and the street outside until late at night. It was a very small room and the Mini Bar was empty. There was a TV with a reasonable range of channels. Although I didn't expect or need it, the air conditioning system was broken. The bathroom could do with some modernisation and the whole room needed upgrading. On check out I was surprised to be charged an extra 17 EURO / Day for the car park. I had taken it from the hotel description that parking was free (albeit I was surprised to have a private garage) and their was no mention of the charge at check-in. Overall a satisfactory stay at the Hotel Brice but I think you could find better in Nice for the same price. SandyB

9.0

Room with double bed,verry spacious. Bathroom was a bit small.Verry good breakfast buffet with a lot of choice.Friendly staff. Hotel is verry good situated.

8.7

Position of hotel was perfect for us - easy access to sea and railway. Our room on top floor was a good size, bathroom excellent, and all clean. We had 4 nights, first two good, second two we had noisy neighbours but staff were good and dealt with them promptly and effectively. Staff friendly and helpful.

9.2

Old fashion hotel but very close to the centre. The hotel has a parking facilities at an extra charge of 15€ a day. During our stay the lift was smelling so we did not take it ones.

8.8

After a day of traveling from the UK and walking around Nice, and first thing in the morning, it would have been great to have had tea or coffee making facilities in the room.

5.7

Very polite and friendly staff. The rooms are well used and need a little shape up very soon. We also had water comming from the bathroom and innto the carpet in our room. This was not good for the air quality in the room. But overall J would say that we got what we paid for. J can recomend this hotel for travellers that use the hotell to sleep in. There is not mutch to do inside the hotell area.

10

I was pleased by the extremly friendly welcome and the helpful support by the staff

7.6

a welcoming hotel with a full range of 3 star facilities, and handy to all the sights.

6.2

esistono stanze migliori ma ho avuto l'impressione che fossero escluse dalla convenzione venere;ad es.le persiane,nella mia camera,erano vergognose.

6.4

Room had not been re-decorated for many years, furniture tawdry and dated, lighting poor, bathroom was newly fitted out, garden looks nice on the web but is small and right next to the road, the taxi that the reception called cost 21 euros for 4 minute ride to the port and was unmetered but we had no time to get a different one. Poor value for the price but that is a problem all over Nice.

7.3

A lovely hotel, in a location convenient for the train and access to the beach. The outdoor courtyard is beautiful, the common areas clean and modern, but the actual hotel rooms have extermely old furniture. While the actual rooms could use a face-lift and better lighting; we felt they were spacious and clean.

8.7

Very nice accomodation, reasonably close to beach (couple of blocks) although a bit far from the old city area (15-20 min walk). No view to speak of. Parking is in a secured but poorly-lit garage about 1 block away. Lovely garden area for lounge and restaurant, reasonbly priced 3-course menus available. Reception staff have limited English, but no problem to make yourself understood. Free WiFi is available but you need a France Telecom (Orange) internet account to actually use it. We would stay here again, definitely.

2.1

very rude welcome; ugly rooms:indifference to room requests; infernal piped radio throughout corridors, reception and restaurant; complete lack of courtesy when reception staff made a mistake with the bill and accused us of failing to pay. Will never stay there again.

9.5

My only complaint is that we asked for connecting rooms or adjacent rooms and were not given them on arrival. Otherwise, the hotel was excellent.

2.7

Although the public areas and garden were pleasant our rooms were dark, dingy and cramped with tired and old furniture. The only outlook was a window that opened onto a flat roof overlooking a blank wall - with signs saying don't leave the window open because of crime - not what you want on a balmy August evening when you don't want the air con running. The breakfast was good but for 11 euros not giving it away. Reminded me of one or no star hotels I stayed in 20 odd years ago in France .....

7.8

Our stay at the hotel was very good with excellent buffet breakfast. The air conditioning in the room was not very effective We were very dissatisfied with the taxi company booked by the hotel to take us to the port. The driver set off towards the airport rather than the port (the opposite direction!) and only changed direction when challenged. The driver also had no knowledge of the prevailing traffic conditions and a journey thatshould have taken 15 minutes took 45 minutes. All at a rip off price of 18 euros. Beware - do not use 'Le Navette Azureenne'.

9.0

Hotel and staff wre excellent. Location is very good, near beach and old part of Nice. This was an excellent experience and we will definitely stay here again when in Nice.

8.8

The promised wireless internet did not work and the single public access computer was always busy, so I do not recommend this hotel if you need to do any work! The room was simple but comfortable, and the breakfast was of high quality (my 3 year old especially loved the hot chocolate!)and good value . Overall, a very pleasant stay in a surprisingly inexpensive hotel in a great location.

3.7

Small room, old furniture, not very clean, noisy, the breakfast buffet was OK, no parking space was avaiable. Situated near to shopping areas and the beach.

8.7

Great location but parking is hard in that area

8.0

The rooms were a little dated but they were clean nevertheless. The hotel was ideally situated within a 5 minute walk of the main shopping areas/beach and promenade and the gardens at the hotel provided a nice little oasis. I would however not recommend the breakfast which I felt was overpriced. All in all a good stay and I would recommend the Hotel Brice to anybody.

6.8

I would like to tip larger clearness on website about the charges with/without breakfast

5.6

The building was very convenient but the room and the interior was miserable. The room was a bad mix of renovations gone wrong and the hall way/common space was old and dingy and smoke-filled. We had to put a towel under the door to prevent smoke from entering our room.

6.0

Two bad surprises: - 15€ extra for a parking place (all the while parking in the surrounding streets is a nigntmare) - 10€ extra for breakfast

7.9

By booking through venere.com, we almost saved half of the price charged by "normal" guests. We had a great stay. I'd recommend venere.com and the Hotel Brice in Nice.

9.6

very nice hotel and exellent price

7.4

A pleasant hotel in a good area of Nice. Room was spacious, clean and quite. Corridors to rooms could do with redecoration

9.5

Very good stay.

7.8

Suprisingly spacious!

9.4

Carpets & fittings rather tired looking. Abroken light switch was fixed extremely promptly.

7.6

Stayed in Nice 5 nights. Staff not as welcoming as at the Windsor, where I last stayed. Room size and public areas better. Location is excellent.

10

This is a lovely hotel. Public areas are clean and well kept and the garden is lovely for breakfast or a drink in the evening. You can walk within ten mins to the train station or to the old town, or to the promenade. Its quiet at night, and the beds are very comfortable, if a little short if you are over 5' 5!

8.9

Perfect for the occasion

8.1

Der Aufenthalt hat uns sehr gut gefallen. Das Personal war sehr zuvorkommend und beantwortete all unseren Fragen bezüglich Sightseeing kompetent und bereitwillig. Sehr schön und entspannend war auch der Garten, in dem man mit vielen kleinen Vögelein frühstücken konnte. Leider war der Fitnessraum nicht zugänglich obwohl wir da unbedingt mal vorbeischauen wollten. Die Lage des Hotels ist sehr zentral - sowohl zur Promenade (3min), zum Bahnhof (10min) als auch zur Altstadt (10min) nur ein kurzer Fußweg. Dennoch war das Ambiente und die Umgebung des Hotels sehr entspannt - mit anderen Worten: the only one is Brice in Nice.

8.5

We had a very nice stay at Brice. The zone was not bad, and the location was ideal being close to both the beach, the promenades and the railway station. The only complaint I could mention is that the sound insulation of the rooms seemed to be next to inexistent. We particularly enjoyed the cute little garden bar.

8.2

Excellent location! Only a few blocks from the beach and the old town. Internet access in lobby. Good value for your money.

7.9

I was traveling with a good friend. The room was pretty small and a little out dated but we were not in Nice to stay in the room. The location was great; close to the promenade and lots of shopping. There were really nice restraunts nearby ( i strongly reccomend Barracudda and its sister restrarant). Skip the expensive breakfast at the hotel it wasnt too impresive, especially for the price. Be sure to check out the flower market(especially on sundays). Also, Brice has a relationship with a beach club which is great however We tried to go mid-day and its turned out we needed reservations so call ahead. Overall a fine stay.

6.6

Room smelt of smoke - no parking places - had to take car back to airport

3.7

We just returned from a six-week trip in Europe, spending time in numerous hotels. This was at the bottom of our list. Our room was spacious and charming with two large windows/balconies facing the front, yet the overall experieicne was not good. The beds were pathetic...poor mattresses that were curving up at the bottom, flat used pillows, stained antiquated carpet, miniature TV, thin towels old draperies and questionable bed coverings...very old building...staff was helpful, yet not very nice...free internet was a bonus. Breakfast not included. Had to park many blocks away in garage..typical of Nice. Front of hotel was charming with the trees and garden setting- entire property in need of remodeling..Could be a great hotel. Only reason it has a four star rating is the facilities in general..nothing to do with the amenities of the beds, bath and room decor. That was a big lesson learned about hotel travel in Europe. I would rather have clean sheets and decor in a room beyond anything. Desperately needed a clear map of the location. Hard to find, on your own, with lots of one way streets. Tested my driving skills.

9.8

The place was great. Only a couple blocks from the beach and promenade. Nice little garden area in front to sit in and it sets the hotel off the street a little. The common areas were spacious and nice. The staff was friendly and helpful.We were there on a special price so the breakfast was not included. I don't know if that is always the case so inquire. It was a little expensive but very good. It is worth it if you want to eat a big breakfast but not if you only want coffe and a roll. Our triple room was clean and nice. We would definitely stay again.

6.8

our camera got stolen (well we had some much more valuable stuff in the room - but they took the old camera) - they changed locks 1month ago - it obviously didn't help (did they have such problems before? :/)

9.8

The accommodations were perfect for a couple. The room and bed were bigger than I expected. We also had a small fridge and a small sitting area in our room which was great since we were on a budget. The hotel is very conveniently located and quiet enough to get a good night's rest.

8.5

Rooms are small and old furnished, the breakfast in nothing special, but if you see the prices in Nice it is cheap.
