A veritable institution in Nice, Hôtel Le Negresco is a legendary place where art is particularly honored. Nearly 6,000 works of art, dating from Louis XIII to the present day, are on display on both sides of this sumptuous palace!
This establishment is also the epitome of the French Riviera and French refinement. It boasts 2 exceptional gourmet restaurants (one of which is Michelin-starred) located within the hotel itself.

We particularly appreciated the noble materials, the play of lights, the textures. Everything is carefully worked out to offer us a warm and welcoming atmosphere, whether in the common areas or in the rooms. As a bonus, we had a nice view of the beach from our balcony!
