Hotels Nice Airport

Location

A few minutes away from the “Nice Cote d’Azur” airport of Nice, theHotel Anis is located on the slopes of a hill from where it is easy to reach the beaches; only a few kilometers separates you from the fascinating downtown where you will be captivated by the friendly vitality of the older part of Nice amongst bistrot, nightclubs and restaurants. If you’re in these parts of the city during the day make sure to take a walk on Cours Saleya, where the flower market is held and typical Riviera products are sold.

Nice is a city rich in history and culture, its museums are dedicated to great artists such as Matisse, in the beautiful Cimiez neighborhood, and Chagall. Contemporary art is held in the halls of the splendid Museé d’Art Moderne et Contemporain (MAMAC) and the works of Monet are a must see at the Museé des Beaux-Arts; the pink castle that holds the Museé International d’Art Naif and the Musée d’Art Asiatique is also very interesting. It is located inside the Parc Phoenix which is close to the hotel.

Nice’s scenery as seen from  Parc Chateau is unforgettable. Its garden is a shaded and peaceful area and visitors may reach the gardens with an elevator. Once there enjoy a good cup of coffee whilst admiring the waterfalls and the remains of the Savoia castle: ideal for a moment of exclusive relaxation. The port with all its restaurants and typical osterias is located at the foot of the hill, towards east, in the Limpya neighborhood.

Walking along the Promenade des Anglais is one of the most characteristic moments of a stay in Nice. Symbol of the Belle Epoque , this large promenade extends for a few kilometers along the coastline and has age-old villas and prestigious hotels (like the famous Hotel Negresco, today classified as a historic monument). The setting sun will give you an unforgettable view of the Baia degli Angeli (Bay of Angels).

Nice is a sunny city and full of life, its carnival is famous worldwide and the celebrations held in June dedicated to Saints Peter and John attract many people in search of music, traditional food and shows. On the hills of Cimiez, in the olive grove of the Roman amphitheater, the prestigious Festival Jazz Internazionale, held for the first time in 1948, offers its audience the best international interpretations. During the month of May, in the nearby Cannes the famous cinema festival is held: an occasion to catch a glimpse of mundane lifestyles or simple curiosity will attract you along the irresistible Promenade de la Croisette. During the same period, the Formula 1 Gran Prix is held on the streets of splendid Montecarlo, in the Principality of Monaco.
