I enjoyed my stay at Victor Hugo. The hotel is very convenient and in a good area. My bedroom was the smallest ( and cheapest) but it was ideal for one person. I enjoyed the breakfast although it was crowded at times. Overall a good choice.

We were excited to come to Nice and after reading reviews, equally excited to stay at the Hotel Victor Hugo. Gilles went out of his way to give us many excellent ideas on where to go and what to do. The hotel was clean, the breakfast was great and amply supplied and I highly recommend for anyone planning a trip to Nice.

Perfect location near a tram station, so getting about was easy. Excellent host who was friendly and very helpful, and spoke fluent English, despite me wanting to practice my French!!! Only a small number of rooms so the host could be very attentive, and the excellent breakfast could be taken in the room if desired. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this hotel.

Gilles is a wonderful, friendly host, eager to help with everything from restaurant recommendations to beach supplies. The location is a quick walk to the beach and across from a tram station, as well as a lovely 25 minute walk along the promenade to the old city. The hotel is comfy and quirky, and feels very safe.

The hotel is perfectly located in a beautiful boulevard and directly opposite a local park and the tram stop for the airport. A very short walk to the Promenade Des Anglais and the seafront . Very conveniently located for the main shopping area and close proximity to many, many restaurants . The hotel provided excellent service by Gillies and Cosette who were very knowledgeable about all aspects of travel, and questions related to our holiday there. The breakfast was really very good too! A comfortable room with all facilities including a small kitchenette. Comfortable bed, good air conditioning , TV and fast Wi-Fi. We enjoyed a very good 6 night holiday at the Victor Hugo and we would certainly choose this hotel again on our next trip to Nice.

The Victor Hugo is quite a quirky but historical Hotel. You do get some real benefits here…. Surprisingly beach towels which saves €7 Euro a day on the beach. A free breakfast is also very acceptable. The aircon is excellent for a 2* and the manager Giles is a mine of information. Tea and coffee making facilities were great and whilst the shower was commensurately tight overall this was an excellent stay and we would recommend the Hotel. The only slight down side is the latest arrival is 7pm so bear that in mind

Hotel Victor Hugo exceeded expectations!
We loved our stay at Hotel Victor Hugo. The location was superb: a beautiful tree lined residential neighborhood with stately buildings, but also close to the Prommenade Anglais and Old Town. Giles, the proprietor, was extremely helpful. He is an excellent resource for restaurants, museums, public transport, etc. and came to our aid when my partner realized he had left two important medications at home in the USA. Giles located a pharmacy able to help us on a Sunday when most French pharmacies are closed. An added bonus was "breakfast included". Even though the dining area was a bit cramped, the food selection was more than ample. We would not hesitate to return.

Un séjour impeccable à l'Hôtel Victor Hugo à Nice ! Son emplacement est idéal, juste en face de la station de tram et à seulement 10 minutes de marche de la gare. Le petit déjeuner, bien que simple, est délicieux. L'accueil chaleureux de l'hôte ajoute une touche spéciale à l'expérience. De plus, le fait que l'hôtel soit dog-friendly est un véritable avantage pour les voyageurs avec des compagnons à quatre pattes. Recommandé sans hésitation pour un séjour confortable et pratique à Nice !
