Hôtel Locarno Nice

Hotel Locarno is a welcoming location, located in a quiet area. We paid by card when we checked in. We received an invoice. The hotel is located 5 minutes from the very beautiful promenade of Nice. We were there in February, during the Nice Carnival. The staff at the reception and at the restaurant were dressed for the carnival. The breakfast was good, a buffet, enough food. All day long you can drink free coffee, tea, juice from the machine in the restaurant's dining room. There are many tables and chairs where you can sit in the hotel lobby. Across the road from the hotel is a pastry shop (Armand) with good products. In the room (210) we had a radiator, TV and a small fridge. The bathroom had a shower and hot water all the time. We also had a balcony with a table and 2 chairs. We took tram 2 from Nice airport, about 30 minutes, to the university center station, from where we walked 10 minutes to the hotel. We left our luggage in a room locked by the reception staff.

Fantastic stay at Locarno! The room was smaller than expected, but the view from the room out to the street was very nice. The AC was good and the temperature in the room was comfortable, and the room was cleaned very well. Very quiet hotel as well, and we slept amazing. Staff was incredibly kind and friendly; they were always happy to help and answer questions. There's also beach towels you can rent for free from reception, which was great! Our flight was in the evening, so we had all day in Nice even though we had to check out of our room at 11, but there's a shower room with towels and a toilet in the reception area that you can use even after you check out, which was really good (and we also got an extra towel each to shower with when we requested it), so we could go to the beach again during the day! The location is good, as it's right by the beach, and a bit away from the really touristy areas, so it's more relaxed and not so crowded outside. Overall, we were pleasantly surprised by the hotel and what it offered, and I would definitely stay here again!

Friendly and polite receptionists. Great location, close to the beach. Clean room and sheets. Powerfull AC. Good wifi. Terrace on first floor. Lots of options and good food at breakfast. Towels and beach umbrellas. You can take a shower on the ground floor.

Staff at the hotel were very helpful and friendly. Classic room was very compact and although fine for a few.days I would not want to be staying for a week. We found the breakfast to be very good, lots of choice and regularly replenished throughout breakfast. A slight criticism, would be that the hotel shower was a little underwhelming, not really hot or powerful enough to make make it good. Hotel is located about 5 Mins walk from Tram stop and Nice"s public transport was excellent. I would stay here again as I feel hotel was good value for money.

Excellent location - 5 minutes from Promenade des Anglais and about 20-25 minutes stroll along the promenade to the Old Nice area. Our room - a triple - was a good size with a proper 3rd bed, not a sofa-bed and all were very comfortable. Bathroom had both a bath/shower and separate shower room. Breakfast was good with a range of cereals, fruit, yoghurt, croissants, pain au chocolat, breads, cold meats, and some hot food (boiled egg, scrambled egg, sausage and a spinach-based sauce thing!). There is a small terrace on the first floor with tables and chairs, but there isn't really a view as it just overlooks the road next to the hotel. But it does allow you to sit outside if you don't have a balcony, like us.
