The hotel was magnificent, a one of a kind experience.

My son and I had a positive experience in the Negresco overall. It is a beautiful place truly a museum.

A singular hotel experience, unlike any other. Highly recommend La Ronde for dinner, which represents excellent value and has the most charming decor. Likewise, the wood-panelled Relais Bar is stunning and is the only bar in the world that makes a decent (though pricey) Hemingway Sour! We enjoyed our stay thoroughly. It is an unforgettable hotel experience.

A recent PBS documentary on World War II directed by Ken Burns, brought to mind a week I spent in April 1945 when the hotel was an R & R hotel for combat soldiers. It was memorable to exchange dirty combat fatigues for a clean olive drab uniform, luxuriate in a huge tub of hot water, and sleep in the comfort of a huge bed decked with soft pillows. The cuisine in the Chanticler restraunt consisted of GI rations but prepared with a French touch. Spam was sautied in cognac. The waiters hurried about with flasks of wine as the GI's clamored, "Garcon, encores, tout suite."

The initial service here was awful, especially by the doorman who greets you when you first enter the hotel. Arrogant, rude, and will look upon you with disdain if you appear that you cannot afford to stay at the hotel or are not a guest. I can easily afford to stay there and was dressed casually but appropriately the day I went to visit. However, I chose to take my business elsewhere where they do not judge their guests by age, status, race, or dress.

This hotel is unique in many ways. First of all, the location is just down the highway from the airport, yet right across the street from the beaches of the French Riviera (by the way, the beaches are rocks, no sand). The staff went way above and beyond. They were extremely friendly and were very helpful. When my mother-in-law didnt answer her wake up call, they sent someone right up to check on her. The art is a little of everything, but without a doubt one of the best private collections Ive ever seen. Im talking several hundred pieces, and quality art that you would see in museums. I thought the price to stay there was a bit high (about 400 Euro), but we had a room on the 4th floor over looking the beach. What a view, the water is a deep blue. We woke up at 3:00 AM and my wife looked out the window and said, It must be safe, theres a couple women down there walking by themselves. I looked out the window and noticed a couple prostitutes walking and trying to catch the attention of passing motorist. However, dont let that sway you. Its a very classy hotel, in a world class neighborhood. The street market is just a couple blocks away on the weekends and is a blast to shop. It was very clean, didnt see one single bug; however, there is a fat cat laying around in the bar. And, the bar is a very nice one. I would definitely stay here again. We had a great experience.

My wondeful family and i have just been on the most fantastic holiday to Nice where we stayed in the magnifico Negresco, it is truly amazing and if your reading these reviews please do not take heed from the ones that advise against staying there! The hotel is the most spectacular and wondrous place we have ever had the pleasure to stay in, our daughter(15 months old) was treated like a princess and even got to meet Madam Augier herself and she is the most gracious of ladies!
