Westminster Hotel & Spa Nice

The rooms are beautiful for a 4 star hotel! The breakfast in bed is so good for 28 EUROS. Housekeeping comes everyday and the environmental friendly atmosphere is very helpful. The area is very safe and the beaches are PRETTY. The spa has a varieties of services and the massages are great!!!! I would totally come again in the near future.

Very nice hotel sea-front.
We stayed just one night but was a positive experience.
Room seaside is a plus!
Breakfast is delicious and with all kind of food.
Restaurant offers tasty seafood and the service is perfect.
We also used the SPA with a pool, jacuzzi, hammam and sauna.
The hammam was not working but the waiter discounted our fee (appreciated).

I felt compelled to share my experience, especially after reading so many negative reviews about the service / spa availability - let me take you through it all and I advise you, disregard some of the less intelligent reviews you might have seen below.

The hotel is truly stunning in every way. Its location is perfect, you have an opportunity to nip out for a night swim at any point, the beach is just on the other side of the road. Inside, stunning interiors, marble staircase, transparent lift, red carpets and belle époque hall - you might as well be back in 19th century.

The service was impeccable. You must understand that you are in France, therefore avoid coming with attitude that “they must speak English”; in fact, my French is at most quite basic / intermediate, yet on every attempt, I tried to communicate in French and staff tagged along, allowing me to practice the language. Whenever we requested anything, bottle opener, wine glasses, extra hangers - it was delivered and provided immediately.

The room was beautiful, had a large bathroom with a bath, separate toilet, built in wardrobe and a balcony with sea view and city view, despite us not booking a sea view - side view was perfect as it allowed us to see the Mediterranean Sea without the noise from the Promenade. If I had to mention one improvement point, it would be air conditioning, as it is really gentle, so you must remember to shut the balcony to keep the heat out - during the night, it was perfectly fine though and temperature was just perfect.

Now, to tackle the negative reviews:
- spa must be reserved in advance and it is available for an extra fee and you are warned about it at every stage during the booking and at the check in, so any reviews that mention “I was surprised to find out …” - no, you were just not paying attention and it is not the hotel’s fault, it’s yours,
- yes, there are no beach towels available - so what? Take what’s in your room, there are the same towels and while you’re away, they’ll bring the new ones in and then you can swap them - you get the gist.

This was a truly amazing stay and this hotel deserves so much praise - cannot recommend it enough.

Just spent 5 days here at Westminster Hotel and Spa in Nice. We loved the location right on the Promenade with the beautiful azure sea. Amazing views. Easy walking distance to restaurants, cafes, old town and shopping. Tram station and central train station easy walking distance. We were treated with so much kindness from all of the staff and provided with lots of information on where to eat and shop. They happily called restaurants for us to make reservations. We did not use the spa and really had no interest in that. The rooms are typical European size and we had rooms on the back side with no view. Totally fine with that as we were only in the room to sleep. At night we were able to open the window for sea breeze. Would happily stay here again a million times over.

Took the best ocean pic in my life
Highly recommend sea view room
Tiny teeny old room, but I didn't mind it cuz I was out all day!
Had breakfast buffet, with baguette, ham and butter, made my own jambon buerre and that was just the BEST sandwich

We really enjoyed our short stay in this hotel. The best part was the view from the balcony to the promenade des Anglais. Room was quite small but comfortable and sound-proof. Nice staff. The only downside is that we couldn’t enjoy the spa since it was fully booked, so make sure you reserve in advance.
