Hotel Palais Saleya in Nice, open June–September.
Hotel Palais Saleya sits directly on Nice's vibrant Cours Saleya, a 17th-century market square where flower vendors and produce stalls create a living backdrop of color and Mediterranean energy.
Stone facades and the nearby Promenade des Anglais frame this Old Town location, placing your celebration at the intersection of Provençal tradition and seaside elegance.
The hotel's position on one of France's most animated public squares offers authentic local atmosphere without sacrificing refined hospitality.
An exceptional boutique hotel with an unbeatable location! Our room was clean, modern, and roomy. Microwave and small fridge were great amenities. Staff were onsite 24/7 and always friendly and helpful. For us, the best thing about the hotel was its proximity to the old town and the promenade. Close to several excellent restaurants and a short walk each morning to the Marché Aux Fleurs to pick up baking and coffee and enjoy it in the blue chairs looking at the sea.
