Platja de la Palud

Oh I LOVED this hotel! It was so charming and characterful. We were welcomed warmly and professionally. The rooms were individual and ours had a really high ceiling and air conditioning, with a decent en-suite shower room. Despite having beds for 4 people it felt very spacious. The breakfast buffet was amazing, with lovely coffees freshly made to order, and the breakfast room was stunning! We had an excellent meal at a restaurant just down the street and would love to return when we are in Turin again.

Great value. We asked for a twin room, but got given a queen bed. In the end this didn't matter as it was large enough, and also a nice bed. The bathroom room could do with some improvement, as there isn't space to hang things. However the shower was good. Staff changed the towels everyday. Staff were helpful in sourcing an iron & board for us when needed, from reception. I think prior guests had smoked either in the room, nearby, or perhaps this is the cleaners? It wasn't overly strong, but some of our clothes caught this scent until we washed them upon returning home. It wasn't a big issue, within 30 seconds of entering the room, you'll adjust and no longer smell the smoke. The area was perfect if you want to be situated within walking distance of everything that is convenient. You have a tram stop less than 5 minutes walk away, which can take you to the airport. Also Old town is an easy stroll. The A/C doesn't seem to get as cold as it's supposed to. My theory is that the window isn't properly sealed when it's closed, and maybe this means warm outside air enters the room. It does eventually catch up, but takes a long time. You need to leave the A/C on 24/7. At least this was the case for Room108, I can't speak for others. If you keep it turned on, then returning to the room gives you a pleasant relief from the hot streets of Nice (summer time). Check-in & check-out processes were super easy. The toilet has a swivel seat, which is ideal in a small room.
