Old Town, Nice: romantic studio apartment with a large terrace

A very romantic apartment. And a real suntrap thanks to the terrace ! Ideal during the winter as well. Enjoy the Old Town of Nice! No need for a car. Very easy access to airport. Bus stops are 1 min walk. Beach less than 5min. The studio is in the heart of the Old Town. A perfect year-round spot from which to explore the Riviera, the mountains, or simply to stay put in Nice itself. The studio apartment is fully equipped--washing machine, TV, radio, a large bathroom with a tub, a fully equipped kitchen & the terrace which is like another room. Towels & bed linen provided. Please note that depending the season and duration of stay there is charge for electricity (from a week stay), based upon meter reading on check-in and check-out. The studio apartment is on the 2/3 floor of an 18th century building, in a pedestrians street. As often in the old town, no lift in the building. West-facing living room, East-facing bathroom. There’s a very comfortable double bed Dunlopillo. One full-length French windows leads on to a south-west facing terrace (11sq m) which acts as a second living area for much of the year. The studio apartment is very sunny. One can eat outside, overlooking an old Italian palace. Full of character. Ideal all year round.


Painters and art of living: So many things to say about Nice ! To counterbalance any overindulgence,you might like to walk up to the Castle Hill park (one minute from the studio) or take the lift situated off the coast road,and you’ll be rewarded with a spectacular view of the Cote d’Azur. Down the other side of the Castle Hill park is the Port with its fishing and pleasure boats, and restaurants. And beyond that again, to the East, there’s a path along the rocks where you can swim and sunbathe away from the bustle of the main beach. Finally, if you’ve still got the stamina and you fancy a bit of culture, there are numerous churches and art galleries/museums: Picasso, Leger, Matisse, Cocteau, Chagall and Dufy all lived and worked on the Cote d’Azur. (The painting of Dufy’s ‘Le mai à Nice’ is of the building next door to me,known locally as ‘La Treille’ because of its gigantic grapevine.) I also recommend the Museum of Asiatic arts, near the airport.

Tram and Piazza Garibaldi: The new Tram is an absolute must! It makes Nice look different, and the same... After all, back in 1953, there was already a Tram. What they have done in 2007 is remarkable. It already belongs to the city. Place Garibaldi (1 minute from my apartment) has also been changed, for the best, I must say. The arcades look even more beautiful. Such a romantic place. This part of Nice is just a masterpiece.
The new Tram line (2) goes from airport to Garibaldi - le Château which is literally 2 minutes from my flat. It will take 25 minutes, which is quite good for a trip from airport to city center.

Bus and email: All bus fares to visit Eze, Monaco, Menton, Cannes, Vence and the villages in the back country are at € 1,5 ! It is the same price in Nice itself, with buses or the beautiful Tram.
If you have a laptop you can catch Wifi at many places for free, or with a special code I have, even for outside.
Do not hesitate to ask me any question about Nice. I've been a resident many, many years, and I still go there as often as possible. You'll also find more details on my website that I update as often as possible.

Wonderful stay in Old Town
This is a cozy apartmentin a great location in Old Town. Wonderful boucheries and and specialty shops are two steps away. So are the crowded charming ruelles. But you can easily avoid that if you like and take an easy path to the port, the Chateau, Place Garibaldi and the Parc Paillon. The apartment itself is in a real neighborhood. A school is next door. Repose on the sunny balcony and enjoy the occasional street noise and the sounds of children playing. Or close the doors for a little more calm. Nights are relatively quiet (the Nice party scene is elsewhere). A very pleasant stay, John and Sandra Atlanta/vermont

Cozy travelers' apartment
The apartment is in Old Nice, with cafes and restaurants right below, groceries as close as one block away. Very near the tram route. Inside, it feels friendly, cheerful, cozy, and informal in a way that embodies a spirit of travel from decades past. A place you could see ex-pat writers or artists living in. The kitchen has all the basics, and the bathroom is much more spacious than most places I stayed in, with a large tub for soaking after a day of long walks and exploration. The balcony, or "terrace" offers a bonus living area, fresh air, and a good view on the surroundings. Attention tall people: the ceiling beams in doorways can be a bit low.

4th visit This time disappointed
We have stayed in this apartment 4 times now & I must say it has deteriorated a lot since our last visit, lots of broken sharp tiles in the floor, bedding very old needs replacing, cleanliness not great place feels grubby, bath mat filthy & generally unhygienic, & a few other issues, advertised as “WIFI” this apartment does not have WIFI that works & owner suggests you log on to a neighbors, for the cost of this apartment we could have stayed somewhere of better quality, I have fed back to the owner & his reply is “he is aware of some of these issues” if he is aware why are they not being fixed & more importantly why are you still charging a high cost to stay here, feel totally robbed of our holiday on this occasion & wouldn’t choose again after many years of staying here… location is great & host is available for contact & replies quickly but they are the only pros to this apartment in its current state

pragtfuld lejlighed /really lovely apartment
Vi har virkelig nydt opholdet i dette pragtfulde studio, perfekt beliggende i den nordlige del af den gamle by. Dejlig altan med sol fra kl. 11 til 18, restauranter omkring gadehjørnet og på trods af 3 omkringliggende kirker er lejligheden forbavsende stille og rolig. We have enjoyed our stay in this lovely studio, perfect situated in the north part of the old city, with a great balcony, sun from 11 to 18. Restaurants just around the corner and with surprising silence. Matthew was very helpfull Erik, Cph-Denmark

Authentic Hideaway
Authentic old tiny apartment. Traditional building with a vintage feel both inside and out. Easy to find from the hosts directions and 1 minute away from the hustle and bustle of the old towns shops bar’s and restaurants. Very quiet at night with only the odd late reveller passing below. Lovely intimate terrace that captures the afternoon sun beautifully. Bed very comfortable, shower is over the bath and there is a climb of 4 flights of stairs but the lady who met us helped bring the cases up to the apartment. Electricity is charged for - our 8 night stay was €10. We loved the quirkiness and eclectic mixed of the interior decor as shown in the website pictures. The host also helped us out with a late checkout on our final day. Would recommend if a vintage romantic hideaway is for you and would defiantly stay again if I came back to Nice which I would like to as it is a fabulous place to be.

A delightful time in Vieux Nice
We had a really enjoyable time in Nice. The flat was light and airy, extremely comfortable and had everything we needed. We felt immediately at home there. My friend and I each had an apartment in rue St Augustin and decided to make this one our base. How did we spend our time? Well, we did the usual things, exploring the area, visiting churches and museums - Dufy, Matisse, the Museum of Contemporary Art - but our main interest was Vieux Nice itself. We loved the atmosphere, the colours, the old buildings, the tiny shops and the feeling that daily life was going on around us - oh yes, and the wonderful bells ringing out at odd times, and of course the dreaded noonday gun - which never failed to make us jump! All in all, it was a most delightful stay and one we shall remember. My friend is an artist and spent much of her time painting on the balcony and in rue St Augustin. So with her paintings, our photographs and many happy memories we shall have plenty to remind us of our stay.

Nice getaway
Good evening Pierre. Gill and I would like to thank you and Mathew so much for making our short stay in nice so enjoyable. We were delighted by the apartment both in its location and the facilities it offered. Its central location gave us an opportunity to revisit some of our favourite places, and to find some new ones as well. We particularly liked the terrace which we used at all times during the day/night. We found Mathew to be most polite, welcoming and helpful, and would like to thank him and yourself for the arrangements you made especially with our luggage and times of departure. We would thoroughly recommend your apartment and will do so on your web site. Our only reservation is-- that is if to many people know about it, we may have difficulty in getting a booking in the future. Which I am sure we will do. Best regards. Robert and Gill

Wouldn’t Stay Here Again
I have never left a bad review, I usually just leave no review if I don’t like a place, but I feel like I need to let others know this is not a top rated rental. I have booked multiple rentals throughout Italy and France and I based my bookings on how good the reviews were for the place, which is why I chose this rental, it had great reviews. The place was filthy. The toilet was clean and I think the sheets were clean, but other than that nothing was clean. The walls around the bed had a filthy grey film. The kitchen smelled like rotting mice. The bathroom had mold. There was an overall uncleanliness and uncomfortable feel to the place. We even attempted to leave Nice a couple of days early because we did not want to stay in the rental but could not change the booking of our rental car. I will say the location was nice, it was easy to access public transportation and we enjoyed walking in the area of Old Nice. So if you don’t care what your rental smells like or whether or not it is clean, you may like it. This place was not a good fit for us.

Great apartment!
Just returned from a week staying in this apartment in the old town of Nice. We had an amazing time! The location of the apartment was perfect - you had the old town on one side and Place Garibaldi on the other and Rue du Pin - excellent choices of places to go out for a drink, coffee or dinner. I highly recommend La Petite Cocotte for dinner, which you can see directly from the terrace of the apartment. Also, conveniently located near the tram from the airport and we used the tram a lot when we were there, and also near Monoprix supermarket. Communication was excellent between Pierre and Jessica and check in was easy. The best thing about this apartment is the terrace- the biggest and one of the few in the old town! And it has a nice big bathtub! Perfect location to base yourself in Nice.

Vacances niçoises
Très agréable séjour dans la vieille cille de Nice. Appartement bien placé à qq minutes du tram et des rues commerçantes. Découverte pour nous qui n'étions jamais venus à Nice. Appartement doté d'une terrasse bien exposée qui fait tout le charme de cette location (attention à ne pas laisser à manger sans surveillance car les goélands sont prompts à se servir !). On a l'impression de venir dans un appartement familial : l'essentiel est là. Gagnerait à être rafraîchi mais bien agréable :-)

Tolle Lage in der Altstadt
Aufgrund der Lage in der Altstadt ziemlich laut von früh um 7 bis Abends um 11. Die Ausstattung ist relativ altbacken, aber wenn man keine großen Ansprüche hat, geht es voll in Ordnung. Utensilien zum Kochen waren ausreichend vorhanden, und der Kontakt mit den Vermieter war super. Da keine Klimanlage vorhanden, natürlich sehr warm tagsüber. Aber dafür konnte man auf der großen Terrasse schön frühstücken. Alles in allem zu empfehlen, insbesondere der kurze Weg zu den reichlichen Restaurants im unmittelbaren Umfeld und zum Meer.

Charmvolles Ambiente
Insgesamt war die Wohnung natürlich in einem sehr alten Haus (Altstadt) und in den Abendstunden war viel los. Gegen 24 Uhr, jedoch als die Lokale geschlossen waren, war es sehr ruhig und auch bis zum circa 12:00 Uhr kam von der Straße kaum Geräusche. Die Wohnung hat er alles, was man braucht. In Deutschland würde man sagen, sie ist vor ein paar Jahren renoviert worden. Wie gesagt, es war alles da, was man brauchte. Der Vermieter hat alles sehr genau beschrieben viele Tipps gegeben und die junge Frau die uns reingelassen hat und alles gezeigt hat, stand auch wenn es Aufenthalt zur Verfügung. Alles in allem ein sehr schöner Urlaub !!
