New, clean, tidy and completely equipped appartment
We got the warmest welcome from the friendly owners. It was a great start of our three-week vacation in Nice. The lady explained everything we should know about the appartment and its surroundings. Her husband translated her explanation to us. The appartment was completely equipped with all the things we needed during our stay such as a laundry machine, hair dryer, ironing board etc. The kitchen was also stocked with various complementary items. Frankly, we have never been to a holiday appartment as complete as this one. There is a small lift to get to the appartment. The tramstop Virgile Barel is situated next to the appartment, as well as a patisserie. An Intermarché and an Aldi are nearby. If you take the tram to Vauban, you'll find an XL Lidl. To get to old town Nice, take the tram to Cathédrale Vieille Ville or Opera Vieille Ville, where a lot of affordale restaurants are located. Walk behind the naked statue at Opera Vieille Ville, and you'll find yourself in the middle of Promenade des Anglais. Walk left to find Castle Hill, and continue on to find the port of Nice. We loved to stroll in the early morning when the Promenade was still quiet and the temperature was still bearable. If you want to go to Monaco, take the tram to Port Lympia. There, take bus 100, ask people on the street or Google where the busstop is because it has been moved. Try to get a seat on the right side of the bus to give yourself the best views on the way. Get off in Monaco at Place D'Armes to get to old Monaco or get off at the Casino the new part of the city. To go back to Nice, take bus 112 at the Casino. We also took bus 100 to go to Menton, which is also worth visiting.
If you want to travel further outside Nice, go to the tramstop Parc Phoenix, where you can catch the bus to Grasse, Cannes, Antibes or Vence.
Back in Nice, take bus 15 at Promenade Des Arts (nearby tramstop Garibaldi) to go to Villa Rothschild at St. Jean Cap Ferrat, which is also nice place to visit.
Bus 82 at Vauban goes to the picturesque village of Eze.
Try to use public transport as much as possible sinds it costs only 1,5 euro per ride (as does your ride to Monaco). Or buy a 7 day Ligne D'Azur ticket which costs €15. The traffic in and round Nice is always busy so sitting in the bus is quite relaxing. We'd love to come back again someday to Nice and to the same appartement. Thank you so much Bruno and Marie Pierre! -Chris and Laila.
