What a fabulous hotel, perfectly situated 10 minutes walk from Nice Ville railway station, even quicker by tram (2 stops away). A short walk through a fabulous shopping area which includes great bars and restaurants to the most stunning beach area. The hotel itself is extremely clean. Our room was so spacious, with a very comfortable bed, work desk, safe, air conditioning, seating area. Yet again, the hotel did not have any tea/coffee making facilities. The staff were very helpful and spoke good English. Breakfast was quite expensive and didn’t eat in the hotel. I would have no hesitation in staying at this fabulous hotel in the future.

A clean, pleasant hotel; the only issue is that they try to clean the room very early. Since it is a vacation spot, this should be done in the afternoon so guests can sleep in, and the cleaning staff talks a lot and very loudly.

On this visit I was placed in a room with French doors that opened onto a balcony with cocktail table and a scenic view. Just as before the room, staff, a/c, and WiFi were all ideal. Hotel Univers is a hidden gem just outside of Old Town.
