The attractive hotel is located in the shopping area of Nice, within a few blocks of Castle Hill and 2.2 km from the beach Promenade des Anglais Boulevard. The 17th-century mansion "Palais Lascaris" is in the vicinity of the Apollinaire, and Nice Cote d'Azur airport is 10 km away.

Eat & Drink

The cosy bar is also available. Choose from an unlimited choice of European dishes at Flaveur which is in close proximity to Hotel Apollinaire Nice.

Leisure & Business

As part of its commitment to guest wellness, this Nice hotel includes a fitness centre featuring fitness classes.

“The jazz-themed bar, complete with live music, is a delightful surprise; the recent renovations clearly aimed for modern comfort. A central location near the Promenade des Anglais makes getting around a breeze, but service inconsistencies can detract from the experience. Overall, this is a hotel with potential, though attention to detail is needed.”

Hotel Apollinaire is often described as offering spacious and well-decorated rooms, some even featuring separate bathrooms. Guests appreciate the convenient location, finding it's a comfortable walk to the Promenade des Anglais and close to the Durandy tram stop for easy access to the airport; the main train station is also nearby. Breakfast is plentiful and varied for most, though a few guests have noted that it could be improved. Many find the hotel a great value for the money.

tasty buffetperfect roomloud buzzingcool fridge
The breakfast included a tasty buffet. The location exceeded my expectations and my room was perfect.
The in-room fridge did not cool. There was also a very loud buzzing sound from some utility, perhaps the AC, all day and night. I emailed the reception and mentioned it in person, but they acted as if they had no clue what I was talking about. No one bothered to follow up about the buzzing sound!

The staff helped with luggage when i arrived. the location is excellent and central. my room was spacious for one person. i used the gym each morning. It had all necessary equipment.
the water bottle refilling station felt inconvenient. i would prefer water bottles being refilled daily. this would significantly improve the experience.

The breakfast had many options. I liked that the hotel was quiet, yet close to shops and restaurants.
The room had poor sound insulation. Noises from outside and other rooms disturbed us. I am a light sleeper, and it affected my sleep because noises were waking me up.

good locationsmall roomunfilled water
The location was good. It was easy to walk around the city.
I found the room surprisingly small, leaving little space to get ready (I expected more). Sharing one mirror in the bathroom wasn't ideal. The staff didn't replenish the water daily. I thought this was a basic service for a hotel of this standard. The water refill station was also outside, which wasn't very convenient.
