About this property

This bright, spacious apartment is located in the heart of the city.

A large, luxuriously appointed property, ideally located for holiday rental, just minutes from the old town, the Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, the Cours Saleya Flower Market and the beach. The apartment is bathed in light, particularly in the mornings. Artists such as Renoir and Matisse were particularly attracted to this area of Nice due to this wonderful light. The living room is luxuriously fitted with Italian Marble floors. It is contemporary in design with a large L shaped sofa, coffee table, dining table and chairs for six people. There is an American style kitchen with electric oven, hob, microwave, coffee maker, dishwasher, fridge freezer and washing machine. The living area is fitted with a TV and home cinema. Each of the two bedrooms has an ensuite and there is also a separate toilet. It is south facing with boulangeries, and all the necessary shopping facilities within minutes. There are parks both to the front and behind the building, with Promenade des Arts to the front and two parks on Rue Foncet to the rear, one with a play area for children. The number 98 bus from airport will take you to within 2 minutes.


To elaborate further on the location - It is a short walk in view of The Promenade du Paillon. It is minutes to the Old Town, and Place Garabaldi, where you can enjoy a wide selection of outdoor cafes and restaurants. Place Massena and the pedestrian zone is also only five minutes away as is the Promenade des Anglais. The situation could not be more convenient for holidays without a car.

Wonderful central apartment
This apartment is centrally located and quite spacious. Great communication with host. Pictures are accurate. Lots of local information given too. It was very hot when we stayed but fans in all rooms were helpful. We loved our stay. Thankyou for having us.

Beautiful spacious apartment in a fantastic location
We had a wonderful holiday in Mary's apartment in central Nice. it was spacious, light and airy, immaculately clean, well maintained and well kitted out. The local agents Kristof and Claire were great, met us on arrival, were available for answers to question during our stay, and organised taxis with kids seats for us. This apartment worked well for us with two young children, the lift to the door was great with tired little legs, pushchair etc. The agents had provided a high chair and toddler cot for us on request which made it all so easy. The location was excellent, just a couple minutes walk from the central shopping area in one direction, old town close by, public transport and supermarkets on the doorstep and best of all (if you have young kids) we could see two wonderful parks from the apartment windows with great toys and plenty of space for scooters. Also the fountains near place Massena provided hours of absolute joy for the children. We never seemed to have more than a 5-10 mins walk to get back home. Getting to the train station was also very easy by tram, enabling trips to Monaco, Eze and Antibes. Mary had also very thoughtfully provided her personal recommendations for local activities and restaurants which was extremely useful. We would love to stay here again if we return to Nice.

Magnifique
This set up could not have been more perfect for our family. The tram from the airport to the neighborhood was super convenient. The location is very close to the beach. Close to the Old Town. Close to Garibaldi Square. Close to several bus lines that take you all over the city. Best of all, the host was so helpful and informative. Rarely do you stay somewhere and the host provides so much information about how to get around and where to eat. It made our stay that much easier especially since it was our first time in Nice. What an amazing city. We will most certainly be back.

Nachts kann es bei geöffneten Fenstern etwas laut werden, aber in geschlossenem Zustand ist es sehr ruhig. Die Wohnung ist hell und bietet viel Platz. Zwei WCs.

Fantastic apartment in central Nice near Old Town
This is probably the best VRBO I've stayed in so far. It's a 2 bedroom/2 bath apartment with a full kitchen and living room. It's upstairs but there is an elevator. It was super clean and exactly as advertised. Mary was very helpful and responsive and Katherine was lovely when we met and she let me into the apartment, and even left us wine and snacks! It's in a great area in walking distance to Old Town. I would definitely stay here again!

Spacious, airy & quiet 2 BR apartment
This apartment was clean and conveniently located -- a quick walk across the Jardin Albert 1er and we were in Nice's old town. At the end of the day, we were glad to return to our quiet apartment. Large, light-filled living area with comfortable seating and a dining table. Each bedroom has its own 2 bathrooms -- a separate WC and a shower with sink. Beds are comfortable. There is a dishwasher, electric stovetop and a washing machine, but the kitchen workspace is a bit tight. Owner/manager was attentive and responsive. Recommend searching for on-street parking; it's so much cheaper than the parking garages!

Un appartement idéal!
L’appartement de Mary est idéalement situé . Il est dans un quartier agréable qui offre tous les services que nous recherchons lorsque nous habitons dans une ville: boulangerie, traiteurs, cafés, restaurants, épicerie…L’appartement est lumineux, confortable et bien équipé . Mary nous a fait parvenir à l’avance un long document qui nous a servi à planifier nos activités. Nous avons été accueillis par Katherine qui a fait preuve d’une grande disponibilité tout au long de notre séjour. Nous nous sommes sentis privilégiés d’avoir pu habiter dans cet endroit. Nous y reviendrons sans hésitation lors d’un prochain séjour à Nice .

Wunderbare Wohnung in zentraler Lage
Die Vorab-Kommunikation mit Mary und Katherine und Check-In waren trotz unserer relativ späten Anreise perfekt, im Kühlschrank waren sogar eine Flasche Wein und einige Lebensmittel, das war ganz wunderbar. Die Lage der Wohnung ist perfekt in einem guten Viertel, nur wenige Schritte von der Altstadt und der Promenade du Paillon entfernt, umgeben von sehr guten Geschäften, Bäckereien und Restaurants. Dir Ausstattung und Sauberkeit der Wohnung lassen keine Wünsche offen, wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt.

Wonderful Stay in Nice
We just completed a two week stay in this wonderful apartment. There are so many things we liked about it. The apartment itself is just perfect. All the amenities you could ask for, including a newly installed safe which was important for our peace of mind. The light that streams through the four big windows in the main room is magical and really adds to the stay. Even on the hotter days we were very comfortable. By closing the exterior shutters before we left the day we were about the keep the heat out. The Dyson fans worked very well to circulate air. The location is perfect, close to the old town but not too far from the train station or tram. From Nice we were easily able to do several day trips by train. All communication was excellent. Mary provided us with a wealth of information about transportation, local restaurant recommendations, places to see as well as detailed info about the apartment, grocery stores etc. Katherine was lovely to deal with and, although we had no issues, we felt that she would be there for us if we needed her for anything. Nice is such a lovely city to visit and being able to use this apartment as a home base made our stay so much more enjoyable. We would return in a heartbeat.

Bright and spacious apartment in a central location
We really enjoyed our stay at the apartment, it was centrally located and it made accessing the beach and old town very easy as well as a short walk to the bus, tram and Nice Ville train station. We did not rent a car or bikes during our stay and once we got up to speed on the changes with the transit (all new apps and schedules at the beginning of July 2023) we were able to navigate our way around without too much trouble. The apartment was clean and tidy and the abundance of fans was very welcome as it was very hot in Nice during our stay. The building is in good condition and the surrounding area seemed very safe, we routinely came back from the train station or beach late and never had any concerns. The full kitchen was well equipped and the clothes washer was very helpful when packing light and needing to wear clothes more than once on a trip. We would definitely stay at this apartment again in the future. Thanks.

Wonderful Apartment in Perfect Location
We had a wonderful month stay in Nice and Mary's apartment is the perfect choice in the perfect location. Katherine is wonderful as well making sure we our arrival and exit went smoothly. Mary and Katherine provide you with so much helpful information about the apartment and Nice that you feel at home from the start. The apartment on the 1st floor with an elevator is roomy and comfortable with wonderful sunlight that streams in making it light and airy. So much of what you want to see in Nice is within walking distance or a tram ride away. You are a block from Promenade du Paillon, a wonderful walkway that takes you to Place Massena and to the Mediterranean in 10 to 15 minutes. Also closeby are grocery stores and restaurants and 10 walking minutes from Place Massena and shopping along Ave Jean Medecin. The old town, vieux Nice, is an easy access across Prom du Paillon with many restaurants and shops. My favorite was walking along the Promenade des Anglais and the beautiful Mediterranean Sea. Always some entertainment to be had including piano players, singers, musicians and even a ballet class on Place Massena and Prom des Anglais. We like to travel by train when in Europe and the station was a short walk and tram ride away which made it nice when we traveled to surrounding towns near Nice. My husband and I fell in love with Nice and had a lovely relaxing time there. We hope to return to Nice and Marys apartment in the not to distant future. Thank you Mary and Katherine.

About the host

Why they chose this property

When I viewed the apartment for the first time, I walked from the flower market, passing the Palais de Justice on the way where the square was filled with atmosphere. After a short walk from the old town, I was shown into the apartment (the builders were renovating and at work). I walked into the sejour which was filled with light from four big windows. I looked out one of the front windows and saw the view - Tour St Francis and the hills behind. I then walked through the rest of the apartment and it was equally bright, yet totally private. I loved the fact that there were two double sized bedrooms and two bathrooms. The beautiful old building and the big double doors at the entrance to the apartment were all original. The lift was modern and the building felt good. I went outside and walked around the area and I saw there were gardens at the back at Place Wilson and Gardens to the front one street away. A patisserie with delicious breads and cakes was a few buildings up so I pictured fresh croissants each morning. There were lovely local cafes, a small supermarket, and a general village atmosphere. I felt the area was peaceful as it was slightly away from the tourist trail, yet within a few minutes walk from it.

The agent had many apartments lined up for me to see in my three day visit to Nice. I decided on Rue Gioffredo almost immediately, even though I went along to see all the others. I reserved the apartment at the end of that day's viewing as I found it to be so special I was afraid the next person who viewed would take it! I have been so happy with my decision. This apartment is all that I was looking for!

What makes this property unique

The apartment is completely private from neighbouring ones. It is so bright and the area is all that I would wish for - a village like atmosphere in a city, near all the main attractions and restaurants, so convenient to public transport that I only rented a car once - on my first trip after purchase. The cafes nearby are friendly and I always receive a welcome any time I visit. It is so peaceful in the area that I find, even on a short trip my batteries are instantly recharged. The gardens and squares in the area have a neighbourly atmosphere and are lovely to sit in, perhaps reading a book if one does not wish to go to the beach or the Old Town.
