Nemea Appart`Hotel Riviera Nice Aeroport

Do not stay here!! Downright the worst hotel experience in my lifetime! Incompetent staff, drunk night receptionist, rooms were not cleaned properly, hallways were dusty, pool had particles floating in it, faulty lifts, and lights in the corridor didn’t work. The smoke detector in our room was stuffed with tissues from a previous guest, how was this not sorted before our arrival? In addition, there were also no lights in the corridor, which is a fire risk. Other guests were having to shine their way around with phone torches! Not to mention I had booked a twin room, but it was not available until the third day of our stay! There was zero communication between the receptionists, as every time I tried to ask for my originally booked twin room, I was told there were no twins available. For the first two days, me and my friend slept in separate rooms, as we demanded there was no way we were going to sleep together in a double. As the second room was not officially put into the system, someone else was given access to the room, and they walked in when my friend was in there. The room had not even been made, rubbish and dirty sheets were everywhere. When my friend asked the night receptionist for a new room due to the mess, he refused and handed my friend sheets to make his own bed! When we got back to our double rooms the next night, we found that both our key cards did not work. The night receptionist was completely incompetent, drunk, and slurring his words. He spent most of the time staring aimlessly at a PDQ machine, like he was on a different planet. He wasn’t even checking that I was assigned the room I was asking for my card to be activated for. Anyone could’ve just asked for a room card to my room, and stolen everything! A fellow guest checking in explained to me he had been checked into a dirty room, and then told there were no other rooms available, so he was forced to find alternative accommodation! My belongings did not feel safe in any room at any point during my stay, knowing reception were aimlessly issuing the cards. The next morning, after being given our actual twin room we were meant to have in the first place, the room had a broken skirting board, of which I had to inform reception, as they had asked for a €150 deposit when we checked in! A lot of things were missing in the room, such as lightbulbs and plugs in the bathroom. The lifts didn’t work half the time, so we were forced to walk up 7 floors. The luggage room was also not secure, as it was unlocked and bags were not being properly tagged. Anyone could have just walked in off the street, gone into the luggage room and taken my bags… As for the leisure facilities, the sauna was too hot, I had to reduce it from a dangerous temperature, plus the actual pool area and jacuzzi didn’t look clean either. Overall this place was an absolute shambles. Not a single positive thing to write about. There is inadequate management and no structure in place. Probably the worst hotel I have ever stayed in. You should avoid at all costs, and find somewhere better to stay in Nice!!

We booked this hotel before reading the reviews and were very anxious about what the hotel would be like. On arrival the main lobby of the hallway is pleasant with good aircon and seating areas. The only downside is the entrance of the hotel, there was a lot of dropped cigarettes that hadn’t been cleaned up. The reception was not particularly welcoming and check in was lengthy as they only gave us one room key. You also have to pay a €150 deposit which I find to be quite unusual. The room itself was clean, and the aircon worked well, although it did drip slightly. The bed was clean and comfortable and despite being so close to the airport it was pretty quiet. The only minor downfall was the hallway carpet outside the rooms wasn’t clean and the TV in our room was broken. The shower was also pretty low pressured which wasn’t great. No issues with the wifi or other amenities in the room. The hotel was also conveniently located near the tramp stops making it very easy to travel into the centre of Nice. In my opinion this hotel is definitely not a 4 star, but for a couple of nights stay whilst visiting Nice it is more than adequate.
