HÔTEL BUSBY * * *
Accommodation built in 1905 in the heart of Nice's life.
The Busby Hotel dates from the Belle Époque. It benefits from considerable assets, even if its slightly outdated appearance in terms of decoration will make some people smile. We appreciate first of all the volumes of the rooms, very vast for a 3-star category. The district is pleasant, in the heart of Nice's life. Another positive point: the calmness since the building gives on a private garden. The rooms are comfortable and can accommodate up to five people. The staff is friendly and the services offered are gradually being modernised as much as the rooms.

The ratings and reviews below reflect the subjective opinions of members and not the opinion of The Little Witty.
Now let's start the list of the negative points:
- The room is basic: old-fashioned furniture, no decorations except for one frame, holes in the walls, and needs paint jobs everywhere. The curtains are made of the same material as the bedspread and are too short, letting in light. It's very different from the pictures you see when booking the room and doesn't reflect reality.
- The bed has a good mattress, but they only provide one flat sheet and expect you to use the bed cover as a blanket, which I find disgusting since they likely don't change it after every guest.
- The room was cold with a non-functioning baby heater. We asked for an extra blanket from the closet, but thankfully, sleeping with my partner helped keep me warm.
- The bathroom needs a lot of attention. There used to be a shower door, but now it's a curtain with mildew at the base. When you shower, the stall fills up with yellowish water because it doesn't drain properly. Additionally, the hairdryer was greasy, but I used it to warm up the bathroom since it was cold!
- Lastly, but not least: it's incredibly loud. Whether it's from the street due to old windows, adjacent rooms, or corridors, you can hear every door slam.
