AC Hotel by Marriott Nice

Location - roof top

A bit dark / typical American hotel

Hotel is well placed, just slightly back from the main avenue, across the road from the beach and a 20 mins walk to the old town centre. On arrival, it looks very nice from the outside but quite disappointing when going inside, The lobby is minimal with no facilities...no coffee shop, no bar and a takeaway area for expensive drinks and snacks. All the staff are very pleasant and helpful. We arrived at 10pm and hopeful that there would be somewhere to have something to east and drink. No. There is a bar/ restaurant on the top floor, which serves a limited hot food menu until 1030pm but we were told it was closed...but was open for drinks until 11pm. we did go up for a drink and were able to get a dessert provided, which was helpful. If the restaurant is stated with closing at 1030pm...then it should not close early...but this occurred every night. There is a small circa 10m by 4m pool, unheated, cordoned off, on the roof beside the restaurant with about 25 lilos. It can be quite crowded and often hard to get seating but pleasant when you can use it. We also tried breakfast there one morning and arriving at 945pm, found that the continental selection, including bread, fruit, cheese, etc, was not being replenished and that there was hardly anything left and we had to ask for this to be provided. There was a chef providing hot food but it was very slow and they were not on top of it at all. The bacon had been burnt to a crisp and I had to ask for a fresh selection. Overall...very disappointing. The rooms were clean and quite business type oriented...small room and small bathrooms with a bath and overhead shower. The hotel is clean and functional but a bit disappointing, especially considering the high prices being asked. Not sure I would use it again. I was informed that the hotel is closing over the winter period for refurbishment of the rooms and lobby to provide a coffee/bar area in the lobby entrance area, which will be better for guests...

No Coffee/bar facilities in lobby, inconsistent closing times for restaurant at night,, poor quality and management of breakfast delivery, small room and bathrooms. lack of attention to details..such as electrical switch and bedside desk damage (photos)

Gorgeous pool!

Very dated room, very poor quality switches, no sockets by the bedside. One of those awful glass bathroom doors that are so terrible when sharing the room with friends or my kids. The room just felt dull and not fresh at all.
