Hyatt Regency Nice Palais de la Mediterranee

The Hyatt was an outstanding place to stay and in a great central location. The hotel and view were amazing and the staff was top notch. Next trip to the region we will be staying here again. Highly recommend!

Positives + large suite-sized room + two full glass floor to ceiling accordian style doors that fold back for open air views and access to double-sized balcony that extends the full length of the room. Even when windy outside, the balcony is protected from the wind. + very clean + elegant, classic, traditional décor with a cream, red, and gold accented color scheme + incredible sea views from room and balcony + lovely orchid and complimentary bottle of wine + frig in room and free bottled water daily + excellent A+ high quality sheets and pillowcases + great location on the Promenade des Anglais; walkable to everything – beach, walking promenade path, old town, all restaurants, etc. Negatives - Coffee station takes up way too much space; takes up full counter top and first shelf of a piece of furniture; need that room for placement of belongings but coffee station is spread out and hard to take out, especially with water remaining in the coffee maker from a prior guest - Only 1 luggage rack; there is no room for the second suitcase nor for the carry-ons. Hotels need to provide much more storage space for luggage and personal belongings & clothes - Bathroom is not as nice as the room; seems that perhaps the room was renovated and the bathroom was not. Everything is beige; shower in particular is old and very small with doors that do not fit tightly together. Hard to get the product out of the little bottles of shampoo, lotion, etc – even though it is Fragonard, if you can’t get it out of the bottles then what’s the point - Breakfast is 36 euros – very expensive relative to quality. Better to go out. - La Baieta Beach Club is attached to the Hyatt; they tried to overcharge us by 10 euros per person on the second day compared to the first day, and compared to the posted price list. Beware of price variability and likelihood of club staff pocketing the difference. - No CNBC or any other business TV channel

hotel is right on the Promenade, facing the sea, very good location, but it is a strange set up, because there is no visible restaurant at ground floor like nearby hotels; the only restaurant is on third floor; the room was comfortable, clean and quiet, but no nespresso machine, nothing on the mini bar, very strange for a 5 star hotel
