This is a two part review of the Le Meridien Nice hotel. Part 1 will focus on the room itself and Part 2 will focus on the dining aspects (breakfast and dinner). I took the public bus in front of Sainte Devote church from Monaco to Nice for a few euros. The journey took 45 minutes, but it was well worth it because a taxi would have been at least 100 euros. The last stop on the bus to Nice is Plaza Garibaldi which is the main square in town.<\/p>\n

From Plaza Garibaldi, I walked to the Le Meridien Nice and it took about 15 minutes.<\/p>\n

\"lemeridiennice1\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I booked the hotel using 17,900 American Airlines miles. The hotel was going for over 300 euros per night which was outrageous, so I used miles. The front desk agent quickly checked me in and informed me there were no suite upgrades because the hotel was absolutely sold out.<\/p>\n

\"lemeridiennice2\"<\/a> \"lemeridiennice3\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I went up to my standard room with a city and sea view of Promenade des Anglais. The room contained two twin beds which makes a King bed.<\/p>\n

\"lemeridiennice4\"<\/a> \"lemeridiennice5\"<\/a><\/p>\n

There was also a small seating area with a table which was pretty unique for a standard room. In addition, there was a mounted LCD TV.<\/p>\n

\"lemeridiennice6\"<\/a> \"lemeridiennice7\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The bathroom was quite small, but ergonomic and functional.<\/p>\n

\"lemeridiennice9\"<\/a> \"lemeridiennice8\"<\/a> \"lemeridiennice11\"<\/a> \"lemeridiennice10\"<\/a> \"lemeridiennice12\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The minibar was prices were outrageous. Who charges 6 euros for a condom?<\/p>\n

\"lemeridiennice16\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The best part about the room was the beautiful view of Nice and the Promenade des Anglais where I was plane spotting.<\/p>\n
