Best Four Star Hotels in Saint-Laurent-du-Var

I am currently staying a that the Holiday Inn Nice in order to make an early flight tomorrow. I chose this location for one night only for the convenience to the airport. However, as a self-proclaimed 4-star resort, I am very, very disappointed. I arrived at 1430 (check in is at 1500) and was told my room was not ready. Fine, I am early. I am happy to wait for 30 minutes. The front desk agent told me he would call me when it’s ready if I wanted to enjoy the area. I agreed. However, at 1600, no call so I decided to walk back. As I enter I see the agent leaving the hotel in street clothes—no call. I asked the new agent about my room and he had no idea he was to call me. He called housekeeping to verify if my room was ready and again, STILL not ready! I was asked to wait in the lobby until it was ready. If check in is at 1500, the room should be ready at 1500. I received no apology for their error. I reserved a Premium Queen Seaview at a cost of 400 Euros/night. The room is frankly gross. There are long hairs in the shower (I’m bald—not me!), mold growing around the tub, stains on the walls, and stains on the furnishings. I wish I could find a more profound way of describing the hotel other than gross, but I cannot. See my attached photos of the actual room. The lobby is deceiving. You walk into a remodeled, modern space and think , “nice, this will be a good stay.” But beware, as soon as you enter your room, it all goes downhill. Not only is the room gross, but there is not a coffee maker in the room, the shower products are empty, and they do not provide any lotion. Additionally for a 4-star resort, I would expect something more than paper cups in the room (glass cups and a wine opener, perhaps?). The hotel markets having a free airport shuttle. However, the shuttle does not run convenient to flight departures, so I have to pay 40 euros for a 4 minute ride to the airport. Again, disappointing. Lastly, the hotel provides free access to the Bay Star Beach Club (owned by the hotel it seems). I was excited to check out the beach on my last night in France. However, the beach club is very small with extremely dated (and dirty) furniture. Smoking was supposedly not allowed, but guests were smoking everywhere and staff did not interject. The provided towels have holes and are stained. It was very unpleasant. Overall, I would not recommend this hotel is ANYONE! There are many more hotels by the airport at 50% less cost. Avoid at all costs!

Seit mehreren Jahr(zehnten) unser Hotel für 1Woche Cote d‘ Azur, tolle Frühstück-Restaurant-Terrasse mit angrenzendem Pool, riesiges Einkaufszentrum in der Nähe, Dutzende Restaurants fußläufig erreichbar, Strand (auch Sand) in ca 300 m Entfernung mit viel Abwechslung durch Blick auf landende Flugzeuge, abgeschlossener kostenloser Parkplatz, für Cote d‘ Azur super Preis-Leistungsverhältnis. Ärgerlich sind nur die sich in den letzten Jahren häufenden Strandsperrungen (Unwetter im Gebirge, Havarien) durch die französischen Behörden, aber dafür gibt es ja dann den tollen Pool, dieses Jahr erstmals mit Sonnenschirmen! PS:Das Frühstück wird entgegen dem Trend jedes Jahr besser!

Good: Appartment ok. Clean. We were lucky to be able to access the appartment earlier than check-in hours. Beds quite comfortable. Quite nice balcony. Free parking. The residence has a pool, which is good. It is also situated close to the beach. Less good: Appartment poorly equipped. Pool area not very cosy but functional. Wi-fi practically non-existing, very bad speed. Bad smell from the basin in the bathroom

I found this hotel because we were bringing our cat on this trip and it is listed as pet friendly. It is a bit far from the city center but if you have a car, it’s only 15 minutes drive to the Promenade des Anglais. The room is beautiful (Gatsby feel) and when we arrived, the sofa bed was already nicely prepared for my kids (10 and 16 years old). Everything was very comfortable. In the morning it was raining really hard, so we asked if we could have breakfast, despite not asking for it the day before. They did their best to accommodate us with a complete breakfast. Staffs were very friendly. Parking is convenient. My cat is happy. All in all, I really love this place.

My overall experience was extremely delightful. It was my first time in France and the staff was accommodating. My daughter nor I speaks French but the hotel staff made sure all our needs were handled timely and effectively. The hotel is in a great location and anything you need is within walking distance. The hotel is well maintained and cozy. The buffet breakfast is served hot and fresh every morning. The ambiance and vibe was very superb. I would use this hotel again . It provides all it promises.

In addition to the advance payment they claimed EUR 40 ( then reduced to 30) as a guarantee for any consumption from the fridge bar. Only after they left the credit card (we had not taken anything) they recredited them, and the room was sad and quite cold, and it was impossible to act on a device that was slipped up the temperature. The only positive point is parking, of course, at payment, and we will not return.
