Hotel Vendome

I particularly appreciated Anna at the front desk for her helpful advice and service during our 3-day stay and Grace who provides a good breakfast experience in the breakfast room.

I booked a 3-night stay, though I ultimately stayed 2 nights due to missing my connecting flight. Prior to arrival, the hotel proactively reached out with a pre-stay survey, which I appreciated. It allowed me to share preferences and request recommendations. However, none of this was referenced upon arrival, and the check-in interaction felt quite transactional, focused mainly on confirming the reservation and paying the city tax. Given the travel disruption that shortened my stay, I had hoped for a bit more empathy. A warmer, more welcoming approach would have made the experience feel more inviting. The room itself was very small—more reminiscent of a college dorm. The carpet was heavily stained, including one visible mark that appeared as though it could have been removed with proper cleaning. There was also a noticeable plumbing odor at times, and flushing noises from plumbing were clearly audible. Toiletries were minimal, limited to hand soap and a combined shower gel/shampoo. Overall, based on the room condition and amenities, the experience did not align with my expectations of a three-star hotel.

I had a fantastic stay at Hotel Vendôme in Nice, and a huge part of that was thanks to Carla on reception. From the moment I arrived, she offered such a warm and genuine welcome that instantly put me at ease — something I really appreciated as a solo traveller. Carla was supportive, approachable, and incredibly helpful throughout my stay. Nothing was too much trouble, and her kindness made me feel truly looked after. It’s rare to meet someone who brings such warmth and professionalism to their role, and the hotel is very lucky to have her. She is a real asset to the team. Because of Carla, I would happily return to Hotel Vendôme. For any future travellers: if you have the pleasure of being greeted by Carla, you’ll be in very good hands. She is a wonderful host and made my experience memorable for all the right reasons.

Very cosy hotel. Perfect location, clean rooms, polite staff, especially Anna from the front desk. The rooms are clean, but not particularly spacious. They have a Nespresso Coffee machine in the rooms. Around the hotel is calm. It is valuable for its status. If you don't search for a lavish hotel, this one is a good choice.

Lovely getaway with historic touch. Good and quiet location, arrangement of breakfast can be improved.
