We just returned after 14 day trip to France. 4 nights in Nice. We stayed in Hotel Comfort Boreal which was between 2.5 and 3 star. It was a little small and blankets a bit shabby. However, staff was very friendly and helpful. Also-air conditioner worked great and bath was clean with great shower. Steve was the best-an Aussie. No worries! He was very helpful and accomodating. You may find better for what you want. But for the price and location-it was what we were looking for. I would say very safe. There is some construction on Jean Medecine (sp?)which is main street-but really no biggie. We had previously had a car for 7 days and from reading TA knew we would not really need a car in Nice and could train or bus-that is correct. Parking is terrible-ditch the car. We were able to drop off luggage and then drop off car at train station. The description of hotel was 10 minute walk to Promenade and bus and 10 minute walk (opposite direction) to train station-absolutely correct for what we wanted to do. We walked to Promenade during day and evening. We walked to bus station to go to St. Jean-Cap-Ferrat and Rothschild palace (highly recommended). Very easy-you pay bus driver 1.30 euro a piece right on bus. We also took train to Monaco/Monte Carlo and another day to Italian Riviera-Ventimilla. All great-most of these recommendations, I got right here on TA and it was what everyone said-the information was invaluable-I recommend TA to everyone!

I would recommend the hotel comfort roosevelt which is central but quiet on the corner of Rue Alphonse Karr and Rue Marechal Joffre . I really wouldnt bother hiring a car as trains and busses are cheap and reliable
