Home away from home in lovely Cimiez area
😀This apartment was one of the best I stayed in.. Beautifully decorated with antiques furnitures, paintings, leather couches, amazing huge bedroom by French standard and incredibly tall ceilings and long windows.. There is a large balcony with small table for outdoor seating and large modern kitchen with everything you need for cooking if you are so inclined The building is away from street which is a bit noisy and there is a courtyard and trees all around. Peter, the owner was amazing! Extremely helpful throughout my staying, friendly and ready to assist you with anything ( within his limits of course) you might need He gave me a map, a free bus pass as I don’t have a car, and even contacted his personal driver to help me move out ! Best host ever ! Neighborhood is one of the most elegant and expensive in Nice with beautiful villas around, the famous Musee de Chagall and the Winter Palace and much quieter the Next c’è Carre D Or area! ☹️The bus stop is not as close as I originally thought.. it’s on the Main Street Blvd Cimiez and you need to go down ( and climb up) 2 steep roads which can be challenging if you are carrying groceries and it’s hot! The closest supermarkets are 3 bus stops away , one south and one north .. and no pharmacies whatsoever in the whole neighborhood unless you walk down to main streets in city center Th n 5 local bus comes on average every 10 m and most times is was very crowded so I walked downhill and uphill a lot to stay safe ( people were wearing masks but no safety distance) If you walk it takes about 30 m to reach Main ave Jean Médecin at moderate pace Old News c’è is a bit closer Overall I really enjoyed staying at Peters house and I would gladly come back !

Charming and Stylish 1 bedroom apartment, fully equipped, very enjoyable stay
This stylish property is situated about 20 mins walk from Nice Old town in a charming and quiet neighbourhood. The owner Peter was the perfect host for our stay; charming , friendly and very informative about all aspects, from local transport and places to visit, and was accessible by phone anytime we needed. The check in times were flexible, which was excellent for us as we had an early morning flight on arrival, and late evening for departure, and Peter was fully ameniable to our needs. The apartment was spotless and beautifully furnished with Art Deco and contemporary style; a very cosy home away from home. The kitchen was one of the best equipped we have stayed in, and several meals were cooked with the bonus of having a dishwasher, no washing up! The bed was very comfortable and the apartment is very quiet at night. Overall we had a very relaxing time staying here, and it gave us a good base to explore Nice and the surrounding area. Would definitely recommend this apartment, and hope very much to return.

Fantastic Apartment in Nice
We arrived late on Saturday night and were greeted by the wonderful Selma. She showed us around the apartment and then kindly drove us into Old Nice to find some late night dinner. Peter kindly phoned the following morning to check-in and give advice about the apartment and locality. Previous to this he had emailed a carefully selected list of restaurants that we might enjoy (he has superb taste!). The apartment itself is situated in a quiet resendtial area just outside the city centre. There is a small 'corner shop' nearby that sells fresh bread and croissants daily. There is a larger Carrefour supermarket about 10mins walk. Old Nice and the shopping malls are about 25 minutes walk or €7 in an Uber. We took buses to Eze, Monte Carlos and Cannes and these bus stops were walkable from the apartment. The apartment itself is stylish, spacious and comfortable. The kitchen has everything needed for preparing meals at home. The bathroom is modern with a powerful shower. The highlight for us was the balcony. Ideal for coffee at all times of the day but particularly in the afternoon when it catches the sun. The Marc Chagall museum is a block away and has a quaint cafe that does lovely coffee and crepes. Peter very kindly stopped by on our last day to say hello in person. Overall a beautiful apartment, ideally located and a brilliant engaging host. Thank you Peter (and Selma)!

Quiet, peaceful place but only minutes from the centre
The apartment is well equipped, clean and tastefully decorated and in a small apartment block in the Nice suburb of Cimiez. Cimiez is a residential suburb with very few shops, restaurants and bars but it does have four museums, a large park and the beautiful gardens of the Franciscan Monastery which have terrific views over Nice. Because of the absence of nightlife, it's a great place to return to after a day or evening in the big city. Nice is about 20 minutes away on foot (down the hill) or 5 minutes by bus. The no.15 is about every 15 minutes and the 17 (which goes on the main railway station) goes twice an hour. The buses finish around 9pm but there is a night bus to Cimiez every hour from Promenade des Arts (behind Monoprix in Place Garibaldi). The buses in Nice are great. They go everywhere and as far as Menton to the east and Cannes to the west for 1.5 euro - and into the hills to Eze or Vence for the same fixed fare. There is a huge Carrefour supermarket down the hill which will supply all your food needs. Cashpoints, smaller shops and boulangeries are on Rue Lepant which is accessed via some steps off Bld de Cimiez opposite the Roland Garros college signposted 'Gare de Thiers (which is a very quick way to walk to the station). There is a small shop at the other end of Robert Moriez (turn left out of Les Palmiers) which serves bread and croissants etc. We visited the cafe in the Chagall museum a few times which is open during museum opening hours. It's a great place, set in the gardens with olive trees shading the tables. Food is simple - salads, sandwiches, croque monsieur etc - and it's reasonably priced. It's the nearest eating place to the apartment. The apartment itself has air con (essential in the summer believe me) and a lovely balcony where you can have breakfast and dinner. There is everything you'll ever need in the kitchen, and all is of high quality - especially the Royal Copenhagen dinner set. The shower is powerful and the bed is very comfortable. There is wifi which is stable and powerful and the television has UK news channels. The owners, Peter and Michel, are helpful, knowledgeable and very hospitable. Peter kindly arranged a taxi to the airport and as they live locally, they would be on hand if you had any questions or issues. We have rented about 20 apartments in Nice over the past 15 years and this is one of the nicest we have stayed in. Highly recommended.

A little bit of heaven
I used to visit Nice in the 80's with my parents so although the town has changed it was wonderful to find this flat and have the opportunity to explore the south of France again. The flat is near enough the centre without the hustle and bustle, and easy to get to, either with a healthy walk down and a somewhat more challenging walk back up! Or by bus, the stops are nearby. Everything in the flat is interesting, beautiful, stylish, comfortable or all of the above! Peter and Michel are wonderfully attentive owner/hosts without being intrusive. They struck just the right note for me, ready to answer questions or give advice but not on top of me! The change of temperature from icy, windy England to bright blue skies and balmy breakfast on the adorable terrace was perfect. I was very happy to be so close to the Marc Chagall museum, his paintings are so inspirational for me. Also I had a fascinating walk a little way up the hill to the Regina, a big apartment/hotel block which Queen Victoria had built and used to visit in the winter and on to the remains of a very atmospheric Roman amphitheatre, and then on up again to a lovely park surrounding the Musee Matisse, another hero of mine! I would highly recommend a visit, for a weekend or longer but it will be hard to leave Les Palmiers!
