My wife and i stayed at Hotel Monsigny for 2 nights during a recent visit to the Cote d'azur. We chose the hotel due to its good value being so central in Nice with a 5 to 10 min walk to the train station and about 15 to the old town and coast. The tram stops only a couple of hundred metres away also. The hotel's reception is reached through the restaurant along the front and the very friendly staff were always on hand to assist. We received a voucher on arrival for a free cocktail at the lobby bar which was nice along with all details we required for our short stay. I requested a quiet room on booking and we were given a room on the first floor away from the lift/stairs and with a side aspect so we could not hear any outside noise with the window shut. Our room i believe was a disabled access room as there was a sliding door to the huge wet room with a fairly tall toilet with hand bars. Yes you have to be careful with the bathroom floor when there has been a shower but we used the spare towel to dry the floor once showered. The room was fine for our stay with a single wardrobe and free safe and the air conditioning was very good. The room was very clean and the bed comfortable. We also had a small private terrace/patio which was nice to sit out on for a little while. The only slight down point for the room was that there are no UK TV channels, but wi fi was good and free. We had breakfast at the hotel mainly for convenience and at 14 euros per head wasn't too badly priced. It was a buffet with small pastries hot drink machines and plentiful fruit juices. The usual fruits, yogurt and cold meats along with scrambled eggs, crispy (American style) bacon and small sausages. Finally, the hotel has a roof top cocktail bar with bar menu and hot tub which is open to non residents. It is very popular and the views ,ambiance and music was very nice. We were lucky to grab a table for an hour but i would always book to be sure. The cocktails we had were very nice if a little pricy at 12-14 Euros, not too bad really i suppose due to where we were on a beautiful warm sunny evening in Nice! The only negative to the roof bar is that there is only 1 lift to service the whole hotel including the bar and its very small and old, not good when you are a bit scared of small spaces. Would recommend a stay here for its location, boutique feel but maybe not for longer than a few days due to size of the room and lack of hotel bar aimed more to residents
We arrived slightly early but they let us in a room that had been finished. It was the room just at the top of the first flight of stairs after the reception it was ok clean and small, the bathroom was tiny and the toilet you had to sit on sideways, I think it was put in wrong and it also had hot water, the cistern was warm. The breakfast was ok not brilliant but we managed to have a couple of things. But we weren't staying all day in the hotel so it was fine for location and price, I found it funny to be given ear plugs but it was noisy, especially when the bin men came round at midnight and somebody used the old lift slamming the door. also we had no fridge and no little milk sachets so I had to keep going down for milk if I wanted a brew, thankfully we took our own coffee etc.
This is one of my favorite Hyatt properties. As Globalists, we were met by the GM after check in and upgraded to a Regency Suite with a separate dining/living room and a large terrace with a bistro table and chaise. The entire staff is very friendly, often addressing us by name. Our concierge Brice was very helpful! We’ve enjoyed a bountiful breakfast buffet each day during our weeklong stay. You could not ask for a better location on the Cote d’Azure. The old city is a 5-minute walk away. The Cezanne and Matisse Museums are must-sees. Hundreds of restaurants and shops are close by. Delta offers a seasonal direct flight to Nice from JFK. We hope to return someday.
Short stay business trip. Arrived just after mid day from a flight from the UK. And the process of getting to the hotel from the airport is easy. I packed light and was happy to walk. The walk from the airport to the hotel is around 15 minutes and I found it rather easy to navigate. Upon arrival at the hotel I was met with a really friendly smile at reception. The gentlemen who checked me in was very friendly and accommodating. I found it really pleasant how he referred to me as my surname. I found this really nice and I have never experienced this when travelling before. So overall on customer service I have to give it 5*. Rooms were lovely and spacious plenty of storage space and clean. I cant fault the room at all. Only issue I did pick up is this is one of the first hotels I have stayed in where I have not received toiletries such as a comb, tooth brush and paste ect. But there is shower gel and shampoo. This is not really an issue but travelling light for business it just helps a little if the hotel offers these. Pool area was very clean and tidy pool was inviting and very refreshing. Location wise you are a short distance from Nice and Monaco which is very nice I walked into Nice town from the hotel along the beach front and found this took around 2 hours grand total of walking there and back. The beach area is very clean and lovely!! Overall this was a very short stay for work but I will definitely be looking at returning to this hotel in the future. Once again thank you for a nice and simple stay and your staff are a credit to this hotel!
