If you want a party hostel in a party town, where you can do heaps of adventure sports, this is the one. The wifi is really slow with so many people using it at the same time. But the free breakfast is really good and the drinks are many and cheap.

An excellent hostel - one of the best I've stayed in. The cook is fantastic too and made some delicious meals. I would throughly recommend this hostel to anyone travelling to Nice.

Brilliant atmosphere down at the bar and the beer was only 2 euros (1 euro during happy hour). The staff were very friendly and helpful and the hostel is in a top location, nicely in between the train station and the beach/clubs. Security cages would have been nice and sharing one toilet and two showers between 8-16 people wasn't ideal. Other than that it was great experience, thanks.

Really good central location. Beds comfortable but room felt really cramped. I have stayed in a lot of small places, but something about the arrangement of the room made it feel worse than usual. There was only two outlets in the room, and one of them was half coming out of the wall! Free breakfasts and €8 dinners were good - dinner itself was really good, but staff time management was not the best. Dinner in particular was suposed to be from 7pm, but I didnt get anything until nearly 8pm.

It was awesome staying at Villa Saint Exupery beach. The staff is helpfull, excellent location, we had a lot of fun during the happy hours at the pub( beer for 1 euro!!!) with live music...I had such a great time in Nice! The city is amazing, pretty close to Mônaco( 15 minutes by train), and Saint Tropez!!!! I´d come back for sure!

Overall this was a nice place to stay: great location, staff, access to the internet. However, there definitely needs to be fans installed in the bathrooms- particularly the 13-bed female dorm. There was mould in the bathroom and no circulation.

The bar was great and the beds were extraordanerily confortable. Everyone was really friendly and helpful. The common rooms could have been a bit cleaner but were still really okay. There are no lockers in the rooms.

There were no lockers, but they were willing to keep stuff at the front desk. Cleanest nicest hostel I've stayed at. Great atmosphere with a bar and great people.

I was disappointed there was no place to lock my luggage in the room. There were cupboards but most of them were too high for me to get my bag into and they did't lock. I really liked the excursions they offered. It's great to go to a hostel and have choices of things to do rather than trying to figure it all out after you get there. The sailing was spectacular. The guides were friendly and everyone was helpful.

Loved this hostel, had a great location. Only 5 minute walk to the beach and basically situated right on the main shopping streets of Nicè. The staff were friendly and helpful. They had really good activities which could be organized through the hostel. The bar joined to the hostel made a nice and convinet way to meet people and the movie room was excellent when you just needed a bit of chill time. I would highly recommend this hostel to anyone.

The staff at the hostel are super friendly, helpful and especially welcoming when you first arrive. The facilities and activities they offer are well beyond that which ive ever experienced before in a hostel. Location and atmsophere are probably the best youll find anywhere in Nice.

The information to find the hostel is not clear enough. I was going by bus from the airport and then is written something like you should go from gare routiére, witch is already on the other side of the town, a waaay further the location itself of the hostel, it was terrible. In a desperated move i started to read the train info, and tried to guess the real location to go: MESSINA. Why not to write \"Close to Messina Station\" in the bus information available?

Great social hostel, with a great bar and dinner, very busy with young travelers to meet. Ensuite bathroom in the room is interesting, as there are two showers and a toilet, but only one person can use it at any time. But great place to base yourself for the Cote d'Azur.

The Staff were all extremely helpful, knowledgeable, and courteous. The location could not have been any better. However, honestly I did not feel that it would be worth paying 45 to 55 Euros per night for a 6 bedded dormitory. I am currently in another hostel where the amenities are far superior and the cost is quite a bit less expensive. In my opinion Hotel Baccarat deserves to be rated Number One.
