The Nice center is about the area of Place Massena and the area of Basilique Notre Dame.

Nice, located on the Mediterranean Sea, is the second most visited city in France just after Paris. Visitors of Nice can enjoy many shopping centers, parks, and historical sites. Realistically, however, most people visit the fifth largest city in France for the beautiful views and beaches. Although it might not be considered as ritzy as Cannes or as trendy as St. Tropez, Nice is still an attractive and stunning place to vacation for both the French and for visiting tourists.

"Full of nice restaurants"
Author: , a Hotel Planner from , reviewed on 11-Nov-2013
Score of City:
5.0 / 5

It is a beautiful city by the Mediterranean, full of nice restaurants (Cafe de Turin for sea food, Restaurant Du Gesu for authentic Nicoise cuisine). Beautiful old town with nice antique market and flower markets on Sundays. 30 mn from Monaco or Cannes, 1h away from few ski resorts and Italy. Nice little charming hotels like Hotel Le Grimaldi. I highly recommend this destination outside the really busy summer season, September or June are perfect time to enjoy the sunshine without the crowd. And of course May if good if you want to go to Cannes movie festival or watch the Formula 1 Grand prix in Monaco.

Graph: Next 20 Days of Nice Hotel Prices

Rates shown are nightly rates before taxes and do not necessarily reflect all Nice, France discounts available. The chart reflects the cheapest Nice hotel for each day and each star rating category.

What makes Nice unique is the Italian influence. Nice was originally a part of Italy, but it was used as payment in 1860 to France. Because of its former union with Italy, there is a rich blend of both French and Italian culture in this dynamic city. The rock beaches in Nice also sets this city apart from other coastal havens. The smooth stones are naturally occurring and add an interesting and beautiful attraction to the already beautiful Mediterranean Sea. Visitors can enjoy the beaches walking on the promenade or head up to Castle Hill to get a view of the entire city.

Best Times to Visit Nice, France

With sunshine all year, it's no surprise that Nice is such a popular tourist destination. May through August is a particularly attractive time to visit Nice, most likely because of summer vacation for families. This is not necessarily an ideal time because it is also a crowded and hot time of the year in Nice. Prices tend to hike during May to August as well, making it a less desirable time to visit if your schedule accommodates a different time of year.

If you want to visit Nice when there's less of a crowd, but still sunshine, book a vacation during the early fall. It's still possible to get some sunshine, but you won't have to navigate the crowds and pay the high fares, and you will have a more enjoyable time seeing all the sights without the throngs of tourists in the way.

The early spring is similar in temperature, pricing, and crowds. Winter is also a nice time to visit Nice if you want to see the sights, and although hotel prices and airfares tend to be cheaper, it's a little too chilly to head to the beach this time of year.

Below is a chart of the current pricing seasonality of hotels and motels in Nice, France:

Why Nice, France Should Not Be Overlooked

Whether this is your first time in France, or you travel to the south of France often, Nice should be on your list of places to visit.

You can enjoy the Italian influence and food without having to go to Italy, and get the best of both worlds with French and Italian influences in this historical city.

Nice is known for a lot of things, but being on the budget-friendly side is not necessarily one of them. That doesn't mean that you can't visit Nice affordably; however, you don't want to experience sticker shock when you arrive in this coastal city. If you are visiting on a budget and the location of your hotel matters, you may have to sacrifice space and amenities of your hotel. If you don't mind taking transportation to the beach, you have much more options of hotels with the top amenities still within a reasonable budget.

If you've been saving up for an anniversary of the vacation of a lifetime and budget is not an issue, there are plenty of luxurious options and opportunities in Nice to make you feel lavishly pampered. You can spend your days sightseeing in Nice, enjoying a day at the spa, or renting a boat and going out on the sea. If you're a scuba diver, then there are also plenty of diving companies who will be happy to take you under the sea as well.

There's much more to southern France than drinking wine, and Nice exemplifies all the things you can experience in this pretty city. Whether you're visiting France to party, you want rich history, or you just want to relax and enjoy the sunshine, there is a hotel that will fit your needs and plenty of direct flights from all over the world to take you there. Instead of battling the crowds in Paris, consider Nice for your next vacation. You'll be glad you did.

Nice, France summarized

It's hard to believe that French beauty can go beyond that of Paris' esplanades and chateaus, but visiting Nice, the country's 5th most populous city, can effortlessly prove otherwise. The Addressed as Nice la Belle, which directly translates to Nice the Beautiful, the city off the Mediterranean coast is every bit worthy of the name. Nice is considered to be one of Europe's earliest settlement areas, with archeological sites at Terra Amata displaying the most primitive use of fire. Named after the goddess of victory, Nice's views of the Promenade des Anglais, the paintings at Musee Marc Chagall, and the Place Massenia win more than 4 million tourists a year. France's second top tourist destination is primarily a vacation resort. Festivals further lure tourists from Paris in time for the Nice Jazz Festival and the wild Carnaval de Nice. An excursion into the French Riviera, bathed with interesting museums, lovely oceanfront promenade, and captivating beaches is truly the tourist's benefit from the doubt.

'Young people must break machines to learn how to use them; get another made!
Henry Cavendish, a noted British scientist and engineer whose significance to the world of science is written in golden words as he discovered the presence of hydrogen gas (called by him as inflammable air), was born in Nice, France. These thought provoking words by him have been guiding lights to millions of young students and researchers on a path to ground-breaking discoveries and inventions. 

Nice, in that sense, a very important city. However, one cannot help but feel that the city has perennially been pushed to the back-burner in comparison with other bigger and more popular cities in France, like Paris, Marseilles and Lyon. That said, it must be noted that Nice has come out to be a major crowd favorite in recent years because of its utmost proximity with the Cote d'Azur and the region of French Riviera. 

The most distinguishing thing about Nice is the fact that it is the only city in France to boast atmospheric air quality that can be counted in the ultra-pure region.

Nice will definitely provide you with ample choices when it comes to finding boutique or independent lodging and boarding alternatives to luxury as well as cheap hotels.  

The most notable of these are summer villas. These are luxury or semi-luxury villas built just in order to be let on rent to tourists.

Best Sights of Nice

The commonest reason for travelers to come down to Nice is to shed off their inhibitions and relax in pleasant weather so as to get themselves rejuvenated before they have to face their routine life all over again.  

The most popular sight in Nice is the Old Town of Nice. It is an archaic settlement around which the present state of Nice has grown. It's an amazing experience to walk down the historic lanes of this Old Town, traversing pages of history as you go past innumerable cobbled stone winding lanes. 

Another interesting place to have a rewarding visit is the Castle Hill that offers a panoramic view of the region. 

Things to Remember While Touring Nice 

Nice is, in general, a quite friendly city to tour and see around. So, there is no cheat-sheet necessary as such to keep yourself ready while sightseeing in Nice.
