Review summary

Based on recent reviews

The Holiday Inn Express boasts a fantastic location, being really close to the airport and right next door to both the railway station and a tram stop, making it super convenient for exploring Nice and the South of France. Guests often comment on how easy it is to get around by rail, tram, or bus, and the tram service into Nice centre is excellent. The hotel presents modern, clean, and spacious rooms; some guests have, however, occasionally experienced issues with the breakfast service. it's considered a good value, especially given the convenient access to transportation.

The hotel has a fantastic location near the airport and a tram stop. it helped me avoid airport taxi costs. i found the staff to be helpful and kind. They gave great recommendations.

I experienced slow restocking at breakfast, especially when it came to refilling plates. the coffee machines also had issues, which caused some delays during breakfast time.

Convenient Airport Proximity

airport proximitytrain stationtram accessparking space

I appreciated the hotel's proximity to the airport. The train station was just across the street. I found it easy to travel to other destinations. Tram access was also convenient. The station was only a block away. Check-out time was at 12, a later time that I found uncommon and helpful.

I noticed that finding the hotel entrance by car was difficult. Paying for parking to drop luggage was inconvenient. I wish this process could be smoother.

Facilities

The hotel provided a convenient breakfast buffet that had comfortable seating. I observed the staff continually replenished the breakfast items, this kept the breakfast room clean. There were several options available each morning.

Location

I found the hotel's location excellent because it was close to the airport and train station. The tram stop nearby allowed for easy access to the city center. The adjacent sister hotel has a full-service restaurant, which I considered a plus.
