Best Luxury Hotels in Nice

Glamorous capital of the Côte d'Azur, buzzy, beach-side Nice is a gorgeously luxurious year-round destination. Cannes and St-Tropez vie for summer visitors with their impressive social calendars, but Nice has something to offer in every season. The town's elegance is historic, and artistic too — this city has hosted those with a penchant for luxury since the 18th century, and flourished during the Belle Époque. Some of the luxury hotels you can still enjoy today were built during that heyday, but there are more contemporary options too, with plenty of glass to make the most of the welcoming sea views, and modern comforts like rooftop pools and family suites. As well as the pleasure of Nice’s elegant esplanades, and restaurants, this is also a city with a lively market and excellent art galleries. Browse our list of the best luxury hotels in Nice and start planning your upscale city break!
