Photos and Description of this Nice Old Town (Vieux Nice) holiday apartment
A self-catering holiday rental apartment for two, 5 minutes walk from beach

Our studio apartment is on the top (3rd) floor in a pedestrianised street in the heart of the Old Town. It's light and spacious (15ft x 14ft) with two floor-to-ceiling French doors opening out on to a 15 ft x 4ft south-east facing terrace, perfect for breakfast. The French artist Dufy was so captivated by the street and 'La Treille' next door to us, so-called because of the massive grapevines growing up it - that he depicted it in his painting 'Le mai a Nice', a poster of which hangs in our studio. There's a double sofa-bed, an equipped kitchen area and shower room/WC. We kept the ceiling beams exposed and bought furniture from the local 'brocante' market, keeping the charm. The famous Promenade des Anglais and beach are just 5 mintues walk away. Discover the restaurants, markets, shops and art galleries of Nice. Explore the fabulous Cote d'Azur. Journey inland to the 'perched villages'. Nice is ideal all the year round. There's easy access from Nice airport. AND YOU DON'T NEED A CAR.

Nice is many holidays in one. Just five minutes' walk from the apartment, you've got the seaside and the famous Promenade des Anglais; Cannes, Monte Carlo, Menton, Monaco and the Italian riviera are just a boat, bus or train ride away. Take the bus or train into the mountains behind Nice, with their perched villages rising from the rocks. Or explore the narrow streets of the Old Town with their spice, patisserie and cheese shops; outdoor markets; numerous restaurants and cafes. For a wonderful panorama of Nice, walk to the Castle Hill park, just a minute from our apartment - or take the lift. Beyond the Castle Hill park is the Port/marina with its fishing and pleasure boats and cafes. And beyond the Port, take the path East along the rocks where you can swim and sunbathe away from the bustle of the main beach. For the culture vulture, there are churches and art galleries, too. Artists Picasso, Leger, Matisse, Cocteau, Chagall and Dufy all lived and worked on the Cote d'Azur.

Fab location!

Review Submitted: September 4, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
This charming studio is ideally situated in the old town where restaurants,cafes,food markets and so on are on your door step.You can walk to the port, the beach or at the top of the castle garden where you get the most fantastic view of Nice and the bay.An ideal romantic getaway!
Recommended for:  Tourists without a Car, Sightseeing, Romantic Getaway
Owner's Response: Cinamon must be right about an 'ideal romantic getaway'. My husband's daughter's boyfriend proposed to her while they were staying at the apartment. They walked to the fountain on Castle Hill where he got down on his knees (he would - he's French!), said the magic words, then produced the ring. It fell into the fountain, which was in full speight that day. He managed to rescue it, though. He would! They celebrated their second wedding anniversary last month.

Perfect Location

Review Submitted: June 9, 2011 Date of Stay: May 2011
Being situated in the centre of the Old Town means everything you need is on your doorstep. The beach is a short stroll away as is the Panorama with its wonderful views. We really enjoyed our stay at the apartment which is full of rustic charm and have fond memories of eating breakfast on the balcony soaking up the sun and atmosphere. If you want to live like a local for a week or two then this is the place to stay!
Recommended for:  Tourists without a Car, Sightseeing, Romantic Getaway
Owner's Response: Ah, living like a local for a couple of weeks... It does feel like that in the heart of the Old Town - especially at our end, away from the tourist traps, where real people go about their lives, doing real things. On the other hand, there's everything the holiday-maker could wish for on the doorstep - markets, restaurants, cafes, boutiques, small food and wine shops - and of course the beach. When we bought the studio fifteen years ago, we specified that it had to have a terrace, as eating and drinking outdoors is, well ... living like a local. I'm so glad Tristan and Jemma enjoyed their stay.

Perfect Location!

Review Submitted: May 6, 2011 Date of Stay: April 2011
We have been coming to Nice for years and have stayed in many different properties, but this one wins hands down for its location.....easy walking distance to supermarket, shops, beach, port, buses and surrounded by bars and restaurants. For the money, it is also the best value property we have stayed in. I would, ( and have! ) happily recommend it to my friends, and fully intend returning as soon as possible!
Recommended for:  Age 55+, Tourists without a Car, Sightseeing, Romantic Getaway
Owner's Response: It's wonderful to hear that an experienced Nice holidaymaker like Mary likes the location and considers the apartment good value for money. She has already told me she will be back. So that says a lot....

Fabulous apartment even better location

Review Submitted: May 4, 2011 Date of Stay: April 2011
The location of this apartment could not be better- it is right in the heart of the Old Town. The owner is absolutely brilliant too and very helpful. The only downside are the steps to the apartment are very steep but it helps you work off your supper!!
Recommended for:  Girls Getaway, Tourists without a Car, Romantic Getaway
Owner's Response: I'm really pleased that Kaz enjoyed her stay. I must say when we bought the apartment over ten years ago, the location in the Old Town was a part of the appeal to us - that and the terrace. Being on the top floor (with all those stairs) means that you do get a nice outlook from the balcony, which is unusual in the Old Town. So there are compensations, apart from being fitter at the end of your stay....
Cheers Jennifer

Nice Studio

Review Submitted: April 5, 2010 Date of Stay: March 2010
This was a second visit to the apartment as we had such a wonderful experience here last autumn. This visit was timed to coincide with the Paris-Nice cycling.

Apartment is ideally situated in the heart of Nice old town and is only five minutes away from the beach/promenade de Anglais; seconds away from a large array of restaurants and bars.

The apartment itself is cosy and a thoroughly pleasant place to spend your time, although to be honest we were very rarely there as there is so much to do in the area. When we have been there we have spent most of our time on the lovely balcony basking in the sunshine.

The only improvement I could think of would be to add a washing machine to make longer stays easier, but I have no idea how you would get it up the stairs!

Jennifer has been a pleasure to deal with on both occasions.

Will certainly be visiting again in the future!
