Best Hotels in Nice with Family Suites and Apartments
14 family-friendly hotels with family suite in Nice . Handpicked for families who want the best.
Looking for a Nice hotel where the kids do not sleep two metres from your bed? Five city hotels offer real family suites, separate-bedroom apartments, or aparthotel-style residences with kitchenettes. The shortlist runs from a 3-star beachfront in Mont Boron with family rooms for four, to a 5-star on the Promenade des Anglais with family suites and a private beach club. Every option has either a separate sleeping area for kids, a true two-room layout, or an apartment-style unit with kitchen. Most also sit within a 5-minute walk of the pebble beach, and the Old Town and Carré d'Or selections all give you supermarket access for picnic packing.
Nice splits into distinct family neighbourhoods. Vieux-Nice and Cours Saleya offer market mornings and apartment-style boutique stays in 17th-century buildings. Carré d'Or sits one block from the Promenade and gives you the best beach access for a daypack family. Mont Boron at the eastern end is residential and quieter, with hilltop views and small pebble coves. The Arenas business district on the airport side has the only proper aparthotel with a kids-suitable indoor pool. Each area suits a different age and budget.

🛏️Why a family suite makes Nice easier with kids
Nice hotels charge a tourist tax of 5.50 EUR per adult per night on top of the room rate, which adds up over a 7-night stay. Booking a family suite or apartment for one room rather than two adjoining rooms cuts the tax in half. The same logic applies to breakfast: most central hotels charge 18 to 28 EUR per person, so a kitchenette unit saves 250 to 450 EUR over a week for a family of four.
Walking ranges differ between properties. From Vieux-Nice to the beach is 90 seconds. From Cimiez or Mont Boron, you need either the tram (Cimiez) or a car (Mont Boron). For families with kids under six, walkability matters more than the room itself; a 5-star with a 30-minute commute to the beach loses to a 3-star at the seafront. Three of the five picks below sit within 300 metres of the beach.
Parent's take
If you have two kids over five and a 7-day stay, a 110 sqm apartment in Vieux-Nice or a kitchenette unit at the Nemea Arenas pays for itself by midweek. The kids get their own room, breakfast and lunch happen at the apartment, and you only eat out for dinner. Compared with two adjoining hotel rooms plus daily restaurant meals, an apartment week typically saves 300 to 600 EUR all in.

Hotel Le Negresco
Promenade des Anglais
Wonderful
1,483 reviews
The legendary 5-star pink-domed palace on the Promenade des Anglais, with valet parking and family rooms in the side wings, plus arrangements for early breakfast in the room when families head to Marineland for opening time.
From
€200/night
Why families love Hotel Le Negresco
Yes the Negresco is grand and yes you can absolutely arrive with two damp kids and a swim bag and nobody at reception bats an eye. The valet brings your car around in five minutes which matters when you have an hour drive ahead. Family rooms are the side-wing ones; ask for the Belle Époque side rather than the modern wing if you want the view. Breakfast can be packed for the road on request.

Wonderful
100 reviews
Hôtel Petit Palais is a 4-star boutique hotel on a quiet street north of the centre, with bicycle rental and a small terrace bar. The walk down to the Promenade takes 12 minutes, but the position above the city gives sea views from upper floors and easy access to the Cimiez bike route.
From
€428/night
Why families love Hôtel Petit Palais
Families pick Petit Palais for the calmer location and the views. The bikes are basic but solid, well suited to the gentle downhill into town and the climb back up at the end of the day. The terrace breakfast is included and works for early risers. Two-bedroom family configurations sleep up to five and the hotel provides a portable cot on request.

Maison Albar - Le Victoria
Carré d'Or
Wonderful
548 reviews
A 5-star boutique in the Carré d'Or shopping district with an underground garage, family rooms with interconnecting options, and concierge support for booking Marineland tickets and pre-arranging the route.
From
€200/night
Why families love Maison Albar - Le Victoria
The location is two streets back from the Promenade so you walk to the beach in five minutes but skip the noisiest stretch. Underground parking is a relief for an SUV with a roof box. The connecting family rooms exist on request and the concierge actually researches Marineland queue times before you commit to a date. Service is calm rather than fawning, which is right for kids.

Hôtel Le Soleia by Inwood Hotels
Carré d'Or
Wonderful
803 reviews
A modern 4-star design hotel on Boulevard Victor Hugo with a partner garage two minutes' walk away, family rooms with bunk-bed options for kids, and an early-bird breakfast service that opens at 6.30am for water-park days.
From
€200/night
Why families love Hôtel Le Soleia by Inwood Hotels
We picked this because of the bunk-bed family rooms; younger kids love them and they free up enough floor space to dump a swim bag without it being underfoot. The partner garage is around the corner with reserved overnight rates, much cheaper than public lots. Breakfast at 6.30 means you make Marineland opening without the kids feeling rushed. Quiet street with no scooters.

Maison Lamartine
Musicians Quarter
Wonderful
350 reviews
Maison Lamartine offers studio apartments with a small kitchenette, which changes everything for families with bottles, purée, or a picky eater. Each apartment has a separate sleeping nook, a washing machine, and a proper fridge. Cots go in the main room and the hotel keeps a stock of highchairs.
From
€373/night
Why families love Maison Lamartine
The kitchenette saved our trip. We were travelling with a 10-month-old still on a specific brand of purée, and being able to heat it properly in a real kitchen meant no cold dinners on the floor of a hotel room. Staff delivered the wooden cot before we arrived and left a welcome note with the closest late-night pharmacy highlighted on a map. Pure class.

Hotel Le Saint Paul
Mont Boron
Wonderful
2,810 reviews
Hotel Le Saint Paul is a 3-star beachfront hotel on Boulevard Franck Pilatte in Mont Boron, with the terrace restaurant directly above the pebble coves. Family rooms sleep four with a queen and two singles or bunks. The garden provides shade when the beach gets too hot, and the parking is free, useful for families driving the Riviera.
From
€269/night
Why families love Hotel Le Saint Paul
Le Saint Paul earned its 9.0 rating with location more than luxury. The family room was simple but clean, and the balcony looked over the Bay of Villefranche. The pebble coves below are quieter than central Nice beaches because most tourists do not walk to Mont Boron. We swam every morning before breakfast on the terrace. Our kids loved the garden between the pool and the road, where we could let them run while we packed for the day.

Palais Saleya Boutique Hôtel
Vieux-Nice (Old Town)
Wonderful
874 reviews
Palais Saleya Boutique Hôtel sits in the heart of Vieux-Nice on Rue du Marché next to Cours Saleya market. The property includes apartment-style suites from 37 to 110 sqm with separate bedrooms and full kitchenettes, sleeping families of 4 to 8. The beach at Ponchettes is a 3-minute flat walk through the Old Town pedestrian zone.
From
€450/night
Why families love Palais Saleya Boutique Hôtel
We took the 70 sqm two-bedroom apartment for six nights with two kids aged 7 and 10. The unit had a real kitchen with a hob, oven, dishwasher, and a fridge big enough for a week's groceries. Cours Saleya market sits 30 metres from the door and we did breakfast and picnic lunches from the stalls. The kids slept in the second bedroom and we read on the sofa until midnight without waking them. The 3-minute walk to the beach with bags loaded was easy.

Hôtel La Pérouse Nice Baie des Anges
Castle Hill
Excellent
777 reviews
A 4-star perched against Castle Hill above the Old Port, with sea-facing rooms, a small rooftop swimming pool above the bay, and an underground garage that fits family-size cars without the height worries other Nice hotels have.
From
€200/night
Why families love Hôtel La Pérouse Nice Baie des Anges
The rooftop pool is small but the view runs the whole Baie des Anges and the kids love it. Sea-facing family rooms are real, ask for the corner one. The underground garage was the relief: full clearance for the roof box and direct lift to the room, no walking wet bags through reception. The walk to Marineland involves a twenty-minute drive followed by a manageable car park, so save energy for inside the park.

Hotel Ambassador Nice
Carré d'Or
Excellent
187 reviews
Hotel Ambassador Nice is a fully renovated 4-star on Avenue de Suède in the Carré d'Or, 200 metres from the beach and one block from Place Masséna. Family rooms fit two adults plus two kids in 24 to 28 sqm with soundproofed walls and blackout curtains. The hotel keeps a board-game library at reception for rainy afternoons.
From
€357/night
Why families love Hotel Ambassador Nice
The Ambassador family room is one of the better-priced 4-star family options in central Nice. The 26 sqm unit had a queen for parents and two singles for kids, all in one room but well-laid out so the kids' bed area felt private. Soundproofing matters here; the room was silent at midnight even with traffic on Avenue de Suède. Close to the beach (3-minute walk) and to Place Masséna for tram access. No kitchen, but breakfast is included most rates.

Maison Durante
Gambetta
Excellent
420 reviews
Maison Durante offers the best value for families in central Nice. Rooms on the courtyard side are genuinely quiet, family rooms sleep four with a proper cot slot, and the tram to the airport stops two streets away. A small kitchen corner in deluxe rooms lets parents prep bottles or purée without leaving.
From
€210/night
Why families love Maison Durante
For the money this is the smartest family booking in Nice. We paid under €250 in peak July for a courtyard-side family room with working air-con, a real cot, and a kitchen corner that heated milk at the right temperature. Two minutes walk to the supermarket, five minutes to the Promenade, and the night desk lent us a thermometer when our little one spiked. Proper service.

Anantara Plaza Nice Hotel - A Leading Hotel of the World
12 Avenue de Verdun
Excellent
100 reviews
Anantara Plaza Nice is a 5-star Belle Époque hotel on Avenue de Verdun, two minutes from the Promenade des Anglais. The rooftop pool overlooks the bay, and the spa, fitness centre and breakfast salon take up the original 1908 ballrooms. Bicycle rental is included in the daily rate and the concierge organises guided rides.
From
€913/night
Why families love Anantara Plaza Nice Hotel - A Leading Hotel of the World
Anantara is the polished family choice in Nice for parents who want full luxury alongside kid logistics. The bike rental fleet has high-quality city bikes and child seats with 24-hour notice. The pool deck has a separate kids' section staffed in summer, and the spa offers a children's massage menu for ages 8 plus. Connecting rooms are limited so book early. The walk to Vieux Nice takes 8 minutes through Place Masséna.

Hotel La Villa Nice Promenade
11 Rue Saint Philippe
Excellent
100 reviews
Hotel La Villa Nice Promenade is a 4-star hotel on Rue Saint Philippe, a single block from the Promenade and 10 minutes by foot from Vieux Nice. The hotel rents city bikes at reception and stores them indoors overnight. Family rooms have two double beds.
From
€297/night
Why families love Hotel La Villa Nice Promenade
La Villa Promenade gets the location right for first-time Nice cyclists. The hotel sits about 100 metres from the entrance to the Promenade bike lane, so the moment you collect a bike you're safely off-road. The reception staff know the bike routes well and mark a 30-minute family ride on the city map at check-in. The lobby has a children's corner with books in three languages.

Hotel Le Grimaldi by Happyculture
15 rue Grimaldi
Excellent
100 reviews
Hotel Le Grimaldi by Happyculture is a 4-star boutique on Rue Grimaldi in the Carré d'Or, with bicycle rental in the courtyard and a continental breakfast included. Rooms use the original 1900s parquet floors and most family rooms have a small balcony.
From
€286/night
Why families love Hotel Le Grimaldi by Happyculture
Le Grimaldi is the right pick for families who want personality over chain-hotel uniformity. The bikes are well-kept and the courtyard rental setup works well, even at peak summer. Family rooms run a bit small but the location is excellent: 6 minutes by foot to Place Masséna, 8 minutes to the Promenade. The breakfast has a kids' option with juice and pastries that arrives at the table.

Nemea Appart Hotel Nice Arenas Aéroport
Arenas, Airport Area
Good
1,572 reviews
Nemea Appart Hotel Nice Arenas Aéroport is a 4-star aparthotel in the Arenas business district, 5 minutes from the airport and 15 minutes from central Nice by tram. Each apartment includes a kitchenette, fold-out bed, and en-suite bath. The hotel has a heated indoor pool, sauna, jacuzzi, and underground parking.
From
€135/night
Why families love Nemea Appart Hotel Nice Arenas Aéroport
The Nemea Arenas is the only aparthotel in Nice with a real heated indoor pool, which mattered when we had three rainy days in early May. The 1-bedroom apartment with kitchen worked well for an airport-side stay before driving up the coast. Tram line 2 to central Nice takes 15 minutes from the door. The pool restricts kids to certain hours, but we always found a window for an hour of swimming. Quieter than central Nice, and the parking made the rental car easier.
💡Practical tips for booking a family suite in Nice
- 1Pick Vieux-Nice or Carré d'Or if your kids are over four. Vieux-Nice is car-free, Carré d'Or has level pavements for buggies, and both put you within 5 minutes of the beach. Skip Mont Boron unless you have a car or kids over ten who can manage hills.
- 2Book a kitchenette unit if your stay is over four nights. Daily breakfast for four at a Nice 4-star runs 80 to 120 EUR. After three days you have paid the cost difference between a standard room and an apartment. Monoprix on Avenue Jean Médecin handles weekly shopping.
- 3Most Nice family rooms sleep four with one bedroom. If you have two kids over six and want everyone with their own room, look at Palais Saleya's apartment units (separate bedrooms) or Maison Albar's family suites with separate living areas.
- 4The pebble beaches of Nice are hard on kids' feet. Bring water shoes for everyone under twelve. They cost 8 to 15 EUR at Sport 2000 on Rue de France or any pharmacy near the Promenade. Saves a week of complaints.
- 5Nice has a tourist tax of 5.50 EUR per adult per night. It is not included in the room rate and is paid on checkout. Budget around 75 to 80 EUR extra for a 7-night family stay; book one family suite rather than two rooms to halve the impact.
