The locals in Nice have been bred to welcome tourists. It is what they are born to do. And if you look at any form of hospitality, you will know that there is nothing more foretelling than the accommodation on offer. If you think about it carefully, the place you will spend most of your time when you are on holiday is your hotel room, holiday apartment or holiday rental. Even if you only spend 4 hours a night in your room, this is more than you will spend at any museum, beach, bistro or boulevard.



Nice is renowned for its amazing old architecture and culture. This is France in its age-old tradition. The most important thing to do is to find the best place to stay so that you can get the most out of your holiday. However, Nice is also one of the prettiest places in France and has one of the most gorgeous coastlines in the world being just a hop away from St Tropez and Monte Carlo.

If you are looking for accommodation in Nice then there are three ways you can go about it. The first thing you can do is ask a friend who has been there recently. Recently is the key word here because many people are referred to hotels and holiday apartments that were fantastic in the 50s and are now nothing more than a pile of rubble. The only problem with talking to friends about where to stay is that all people have different tastes and all people have different needs.

Another way to find good accommodation in Nice is to just arrive in the city and go hunting for a place to stay. There is a certain charm about this because it is like a mini adventure without you even having to plan one. If you are looking for somewhere to stay, this is a great way to see the city in a new light. You will have to keep in mind where your hotel is situated in relation to other places you are wishing to see in Nice.

The best way, however, to find accommodation in Nice is to look online. This way you will be able to book exactly what you are looking for. By taking your time you will not be forced into grabbing the first place you see just because it is getting dark and your feet are sore from carrying your bags. Many websites specialize in Nice accommodation and you can choose between hotels, self catering apartments, holiday rentals and even backpacker lodges. This all depends on your budget and how long you intend to stay for. Hotels provide more amenities so that you do not have to leave your accommodation in search of food or entertainment. Self catering apartments provide you with more freedom so that you are not bound to any meal times and can come and go as you please. It all depends on what you want.
