I had a wonderful stay at the Clair Hotel in Nice for two weeks in May 2009. I was in a very clean studio room, which allowed me to prepare breakfast and small meals for myself during the times I was not "out and about"--and the price was great for a budget-conscious traveller. There were grocery stores and cafes nearby. The location was convenient for walking to the port, Vieux Nice, the bus station and the train station. As a woman travelling alone, I felt very safe staying at the Hotel--the rooms face an inner courtyard and the area is accessed through a door at street level which is always kept locked. The courtyard itself was a great setting for sipping coffee or wine, reading a book, checking email or just relaxing after a long day of playing tourist. To top it all off, the owners were wonderful--very friendly, gracious and helpful. If I am ever in Nice again, I will most certainly stay at the Clair Hotel.
An unpretentious 2-star gem with 3-star service.

If your idea of holiday heaven is to wander aimlessly up and down the Promenade des Anglais and gaze across a pebbled beach at the sea, or if you are daunted by a flight of steps, this charming little 2-star hotel with self-catering studios perched at the foot of Mount Boron overlooking Nice is not for you. If, however, Nice means the picturesque port and yacht marina, dinghy sailing at the nearby Club Nautique, or buying cheap local wine, freshly caught seafood, delicious Provencal fruit and vegetables, freshly baked crusty bread and patisserie in the famed Nice markets and artisan bakeries surrounding the city's stunning Old Quarter to rustle up your own feasts and dine on a flower-bedecked patio, Claire Hotel is your shangri la. This unpretentious gem near the port is immaculately run by the nicest hotelier couple it has ever been my pleasure to come across in my forty years of professional travel writing. Deservedly popular with French and Italian vacationers, Clair Hotel offers 3-star service at 2-star prices. We shall return!
