Looking for a decent airport hotel in Nice..........please note, have (almost) avoided asking for a nice Nice airport hotel!!<BR><BR>Doesn't have to be 5-star - don't even think there are any near that airport........but mid-price range. Merci.

ttt

...and I was going to suggest that you might get more responses if you included the location of the airport in your heading

There's a Campanile motel <BR>envergure.fr

?

There is the nice novotel Arenas. about 120. Will be there in July so cant really give you a definite answer. About 100 dollars

I'm looking for a hotel near the airport because my flight leaves at 06:00 am and I thought it would be safer to be near the airport...<BR><BR>Etap, Premiere Classe and Campanile are full the date I need!<BR><BR>Does anybody know the following hotels:<BR>-Ibis (359 Promenade des Anglais)<BR>-Mercure (Californie street) ?<BR><BR>I would appreciate any any suggetion.<BR>Thanks<BR><BR>Any other suggestion ?

Sorry for topping this one...but before making my reservation I would appreciate your input.<BR><BR>Which one of those 2 hotels should I take to be near the airport:Ibis or Mercure ?<BR>Thanks

Carol,<BR><BR>I would recommend taking whichever hotel guarantees you free shuttle service to the airport at that hour of the morning.<BR>(I am assuming that you will not have a rental car to return at that early hour.)<BR><BR>We had stayed at the Novotel Arenas for our last night, because they guaranteed us a 4:30am shuttle to the airport. We returned our rental the night before and took the shuttle back to the hotel from the airport.<BR>

Carol,<BR><BR>I looked at the hotel locations of the Ibis and the Mercure, and the Ibis is almost across the Promenade from the airport entrance. Not walking distance---but a very short cab ride.<BR><BR>Ibis hotels are very economical, and since you will be getting very little sleep on your last night, you probably won't mind the "tight" quarters offered in a typical Ibis room.<BR><BR>The bathrooms are also very compact.<BR><BR>For what it is worth, I'd spend the extra euros on a nice bottle of wine rather than at a higher-priced hotel at which I may be getting only 5 hours of sleeping time.

We stayed at the Novotel Arenas last Friday night after landing in Nice - meets all of the requirements across from the airport, shuttle early if arranged, quiet, clean rooms. I arrranged by email and was able to negotiate the price down to 84 Euros from originally quoted 105.

Dear FLJudi, how did you mannage the price reduction ?<BR><BR>
