Boutique Rural Hotel
Hôtel du Couvent, an exquisite five-star retreat in Nice's Old Town, enchants with its 17th-century convent heritage, reimagined with mindful elegance, where flower-filled gardens and rustic stone walls offer a serene escape steps from Place Masséna's vibrant charm.
The 88 rooms, spread across four historic and new buildings, unfold with understated sophistication, featuring air-conditioned comfort, flat-screen TVs, coffee machines, kettles, minibars, and private bathrooms with plush bathrobes, slippers, and Azzi Glass lavender-infused toiletries. Natural-toned rugs and fresh flowers craft intimate havens, with select rooms offering balconies overlooking the city or gardens. Attentive staff orchestrate seamless experiences, from apothecary classes with herbalist Gregory Unrein to farm visits, fostering a sense of belonging amid Nice's tranquil pulse.
Dining at Le Restaurant in the courtyard or La Guinguette in the garden, led by chef Thomas Vitele, captivates with farm-to-table Provençal cuisine, from pea tarts to grilled lamb with Nôtre Dame farm produce, paired with natural wines. The bar serves expert Negronis under orange trees. A daily breakfast brims with fresh juices, farm eggs, house-baked bread, and homemade preserves. Guests can immerse in curated experiences, from bread-making classes to exploring Nice's artisanal markets, capturing the Riviera's timeless rhythm with effortless grace.
Nestled 600 meters from Plage Castel and near Castle Hill, with Nice Côte d'Azur Airport 8 kilometers away, Hôtel du Couvent offers seamless access with free WiFi. A Roman-inspired spa with caldarium, tepidarium, frigidarium, indoor and outdoor pools, a fitness centre with yoga, and eco-conscious practices like plastic-free policies elevate the experience, ensuring serene renewal in a setting of historic splendor.
