    The aircon made some weird noises if you put on a higher fan setting

    Great location and the room was comfortable and aircon was great for the hot summer days

    We absolutely loved Hotel Solara! The location is perfect, so close to the beach and many great restaurants. The room was very clean and comfortable and we loved the little balcony. However the best thing about Hotel Solara is the staff. They are so friendly, welcoming, and helpful. Especially Barbara. She gave us so many great recommendations and tips, and we were also able to check in early. We wouldn’t want to stay anywhere else in Nice!

    Very friendly tiny hotel in a pedestrian-only street which was very busy and full of cafes. Room was small and adequate but it had a delightful terrace with chairs and table which overlooked the surrounding streets. Staff couldn't have been more friendly and helpful - even providing a plate, wine glass and cutlery for when I preferred to have a meal on the terrace.

    Nothing! Don’t expect very quiet surroundings as there are restaurants within the building and lots of music and sounds of people having fun.

    Everything- especially the location! The building is old and very charming. The rooms are well equipped with a refrigerator and air conditioning - so welcome in the Nice hot summer. We have stayed here a few times over the years . The standard of cleanliness is excellent. The staff are so helpful. What more could you want?!

    Noisy surroundings especially on Saturday, when some music was playing close by until very late (2 am or something). Very warm building + elevator ride.

    Practical room with great central location, with beautiful balcony where to eat the nice breakfast which was brought to the room at the time of your choosing. Close to the beach for evening swim.

    I found the pillows on the bed to be very firm--too firm! Also, the toilet ran a bit--the flush mechanism just needs to be better attached.

    The location, one block from the beach, in the middle of everything, is truly exceptional. My hotel window looked out until the beautiful Niçois architecture, and people strolling the pedestrian area. The hotel actually begins on the 4th floor of the building, which I've never experienced before. You do have to be ok with the extremely narrow elevator to the 4th floor, but as long as you are ok with that, you almost feel like a local in a little hideaway. The rooms have a simple elegance are well air conditioned. Hotel Solara is really a gem and I had a wonderful time exploring beaches and city. The hotel staff were extremely polite, friendly, and attentive.

    Everything! Friendly & professional welcoming staff. Hotel is within secure residential block . Loved our corner terrace Room 11 for both fresh air & watching Nice life from above was a highlight. Restuarants & cafes right on your doorstep. Excellent air con made for a comfortable stay. Location perfect approx 10min from train station & very easy walk into all areas of Nice . Very cosy lift available - 1 person 1 Bag but worked well. Stairs used when no luggage in tow. Highly recommend booking this hotel.

    We had no complaints. Perhaps better shampoo/bodywash? It was a great value for our visit here.

    Wonderful location! Great restaurants and shops just steps away. Delightful staff, they were helpful and welcoming. Secure and safe, we really appreciated the security measures even though Nice is pretty safe. Immaculate! It was great to return to our rooms on a hot day to find them spotless and freshened up.

    Nothing

    The hotel is only a 5 minute walk from Blue Beach and Promenade des Anglais, and about a 15 minute walk to the Old Town, a 15 minute walk to the train, and a 7 minute walk to the tram. There are tons of restaurants right on the same street as the hotel, as well as cafes and ice cream shops. There’s shopping right in the area also. The staff is wonderful, including Galina, her sister, and Jean Louie. They’re all very helpful and nice. The room was modern, and clean, with good air conditioning, a small balcony ( I understand that there are different sizes), a small fridge, and my bed was very comfortable. A very nice continental breakfast is available for a small fee. I would definitely stay here again! It’s also a very safe area.

    The room might be a bit too small for a longer stay, but the location and the balcony make up for it. The hotel has only one iron shared among approximately four rooms, so you’ll need to request it. The shower is very small and doesn’t include body lotion, shampoo, or body wash. We were given four single-use shampoo & body wash testers for a two-night stay, so you may want to bring your own toiletries. Also, the building has a tiny elevator that fits either two people or one person with luggage. The hotel is located on the fourth floor, so be prepared to get some steps in.

    Perfect location — just two streets from the sea and right next to Place Massena and all the shops. Lovely restaurants and a boulangerie nearby. Amazing balcony with a nice local view. Very friendly and helpful staff, they even accommodated our earlier check in. Clean room, and it even has a fridge to chill your breakfast Prosecco:)
