Hotel Palais de la Mediterranee, in the Unbound Collection by Hyatt

The rooms and suites offer a range of layouts, from double rooms to the Prestige Suite. They range in size from 25 to 105 m². Rooms are equipped with air conditioning, a private bathroom, a flat-screen TV and a minibar. Some overlook the inner courtyard; others open onto views of the sea, swimming pool, city or mountains.

Several rooms have a balcony, while the suites stand out for their more generous proportions. The Deluxe Room with 2 Queen Beds can accommodate up to four people and has a seating area. The twin rooms have two single beds, while the king-size rooms have one extra-large double bed. Some bathrooms are finished in marble. With a variety of views, sizes and bed arrangements, these rooms suit couples, families or friends.

The hotel’s facilities combine relaxation, activities and practical services. There are two swimming pools, one of them heated, with a shallow area; the private beach and sun loungers let you enjoy the seafront. The fitness centre, sauna, hammam, solarium and open-air bath offer several ways to take a break. A terrace and outdoor furniture complete the relaxation areas.

The restaurant, bar, on-site café and snack bar offer a range of dining options. Breakfast can be served in your room, and children’s menus and options for special diets are available on request. The 24-hour reception, luggage storage, concierge service and currency exchange are available throughout your stay. The hotel also offers bicycle rental, childcare, room service and facilities for guests with reduced mobility. Wi-Fi is free; on-site public parking is available for a fee.

Nice stretches between the Mediterranean and the first hills of the Alpes-Maritimes. The seafront, lined by the Promenade des Anglais, sets the tone for the day: swimming, walking by the water and taking breaks in the gardens. Further inland, the streets of Nice Old Town reveal colourful façades, markets and lively squares. This urban and coastal setting suits cultural stays as well as trips focused on the beach.

Lido Beach and Ruhl Beach are 70 m and 140 m away, respectively. The Masséna Museum, housed in a 19th-century villa, traces the history of Nice and the Riviera; Albert I Garden offers a shaded walk near the seafront. Place Masséna connects the central promenades with the shopping streets and Nice Old Town. Further away, Castle Hill offers a higher vantage point, with views of the bay, the rooftops of the old town and the port. Nice-Ville train station is 1.1 km away and Nice Côte d’Azur Airport is 3.7 km away; the tram makes it easy to travel between the airport and the centre.

In spring and autumn, mild temperatures are well suited to exploring on foot and taking trips along the coast. In summer, the beaches draw more people, and the heat makes morning or late-afternoon walks more appealing. A day might begin at the market in Nice Old Town, continue in the museums or old lanes, and end by the sea. Train connections also make it possible to explore other towns on the Riviera without a car.
