Le Palais de la Mediterranee is a landmark in Nice, the gateway to the French Alps and the French Riviera, and offers far more than most luxury hotels. Newly opened in 2004 after an ambitious restoration project, today's tribute to the grandeur of the 1930s is a stunning nine stories of imaginative yet sympathetic architecture, innovative contemporary ideas, opulence on a grand scale and a myriad of entertainment and leisure opportunities to suit the most discerning visitors. The third floor is the heart of the hotel with a beautifully conceived indoor/outdoor pool, gastronomic restaurant, fitness rooms, cosy lounge and a sun terrace with stunning views.

Mike F., Harrogate North Yorkshire, United Kingdom. August, 2006
"First class location, close to all the key locations in Nice. Rooms of very high standard. Enjoyed some memorable breakfasts overlooking the med. Staff very helpful, did not think the public bar and gym facilities of five star standard although the pool was exceptional."
Debbie, Ireland. May, 2006
