“Hotel Busby feels like a genuine slice of old Nice. Its late 19th-century bones provide a distinct backdrop, and the location, a short walk to the Promenade des Anglais, situates you perfectly. I think the combination of historical touches and practical amenities, especially for business needs, makes it a solid choice.”

Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Hotel Busby is appreciated for its location, with the beach easily accessible on foot and the central train station nearby. Many guests find the rooms spacious, with some offering pleasant street views from their large, fully opening windows. While the building is older and some guests have noted that the bathrooms can feel outdated, the inclusion of kitchen facilities and a shared fridge is seen as a valuable bonus.

I was not impressed with my room. The lack of a fridge was a big problem, especially since the weather was warm. the shower curtain was too short. Water got everywhere when I showered. The breakfast was also disappointing. There were no hot options or fresh fruit.

Excellent Location and Functional Amenities

great locationlocal supermarketfunctional gym
The hotel location is excellent. I walked to the beach in about five minutes. There is a supermarket nearby. I also found several restaurants and shops very close. The air conditioning worked well, which I found important. The gym also had equipment for a workout.
The wall in the bedroom seemed to have received a layer of paint on years of wall paper layers.
