Hızlı Özet: It's a shiny glass spaceship landed in a gritty train station district—convenient as hell, but don't expect a quiet village vibe.
@quincyslifestyle tarafından değerlendirildi: I just checked into the new DoubleTree in Nice and I'm obsessed! The design is super modern, they had a warm cookie waiting for me, and seeing my name on the TV was the cutest touch. Perfect spot for a solo trip.

Reality check
The 'Iconic' glass facade is stunning, but the 'sewage smell' in certain bathrooms is a recurring complaint that ruins the new-hotel smell.
- You plan to take the train to Monaco, Cannes, or Antibes every day
- You appreciate American-style AC and modern soundproofing in Europe
- You want a rooftop bar scene without the Promenade des Anglais price tag
Temizlik & Bakım

- Housekeeping: Generally good daily service, though some reports of missed coffee refills and rushed dusting.
- Bathroom hygiene: Visually spotless and modern, BUT watch out for the infamous drain smell in some units.
- Maintenance: Brand new (opened 2024), so peeling paint isn't an issue yet, but check AC functionality.

- Odors & scents: Lobby smells like white tea/signature scent; some hallways have had sewage odor complaints.

SSS & Gizli İpuçları
Rezervasyon yapmadan önce bilmeniz gereken her şey.
Is the train noise unbearable?
Not with windows closed. The glazing is heavy-duty. Open the window, and you are effectively on the platform.
How far is the beach?
It's a 15-20 minute walk down Avenue Jean Médecin, or a quick tram ride (L1).
Is the area safe at night?
It's a major train station area. It's generally safe but feels gritty; keep your wits about you and avoid unlit side streets late at night.
Is breakfast included?
Usually no. It's a buffet priced around €29 per person. Most guests suggest skipping it for a local bakery.
Does the hotel have a pool?
No pool, but there is a panoramic rooftop terrace and a fitness center.
Can I store my bags before check-in?
Yes, they have a secure luggage room, which is crucial since you're likely arriving by train.
İçeri Sakıları
- ✨
The 'Metropolitan Club' gym inside the complex is often accessible to guests—ask at reception for a pass.
- ✨
Don't pay for the hotel breakfast; walk 3 minutes to 'Boulangerie Lagache' or 'Paul' at the station for a fraction of the price.
- ✨
Use the tram line L1 for a direct connection to the airport—it's cheaper and often faster than a taxi.
Gitmeden önce bilmeniz gereken 5 şey
💡The 'Iconic' building is still filling up with retail tenants, so parts of the complex feel like a ghost mall.
💡The elevators can be slow during morning rush hour as everyone heads to the train.
💡You might smell the fish market concept restaurant 'Pesca' in the lobby during dinner service.
💡The angular room shapes (due to the exterior design) can make some corners feel tight or unusable.
💡Housekeeping sometimes misses refilling the Nespresso pods—hoard them if you see the cart.
