Mont-Boron, a haven of peace to discover
Nestled between sea and sky, Hôtel Le Royal on the famous Promenade des Anglais invites you to discover Nice from a different angle. A city of a thousand facets, bordered by the sumptuous Baie des Anges and dominated by Mont Boron, Nice appeals to history lovers and nature enthusiasts alike. A stay at Hotel Le Royal is the assurance of a journey through time, between discreet luxury and astonishing discoveries.
An escape between sea and hill
Behind the Belle Époque facades of the Hôtel Le Royal, the city reveals itself in all its forms. You're strolling along the Promenade des Anglais, the legendary thoroughfare bordering the Baie des Anges, but it's Mont Boron that catches your eye, proudly dominating the city. This verdant hill, a true pearl of the Côte d'Azur, stands just a few minutes from the hotel. And what better way to discover the city of Nice than by taking a stroll on the heights of Mont-Boron?
The Parc du Mont-Boron, a vast green setting covering 57 hectares, offers a multitude of signposted hiking trails. Everything invites you to escape: Aleppo pines and Mediterranean olive trees whisper in the sea breeze, while winding paths lead you to the Mont Alban fort. This 16th-century fortress, built to defend Nice against incursions, now overlooks the town and offers breathtaking panoramic views. From its summit, the view stretches from the colorful rooftops of old Nice to Cap Ferrat, with the glittering sea fading into the horizon. A place steeped in history, perfect for recharging your batteries in the midst of nature, while admiring the infinite beauty of the French Riviera.
Mont-Boron, a journey through time
Mont-Boron is also a plunge into a glorious past. Along the paths, you'll travel through the history of Nice, from the days when the city welcomed the European aristocracy in search of sun and well-being. It was here, out of sight, that many prestigious villas were built, like jewel cases of luxury, housing the likes of Elton John. While the centuries may seem to have slipped away on the stones of these residences, the spirit of the Côte d'Azur remains intact: luxury, calm and voluptuousness. The Cap de Nice, just below, invites you to take a bucolic stroll, where sea and hills meet to form breathtaking landscapes.
After a day exploring Mont Boron, what could be more pleasant than to return to Hôtel Le Royal, your haven of peace on the Promenade des Anglais. Belle Époque refinement rubs shoulders with contemporary art, and every moment spent in this hotel becomes a true experience. From your room, the view over the Baie des Anges plunges you into a setting worthy of an Impressionist painting: the deep blues of the sea mingle with the orange hues of the sunset. Here you are, in one of the most beautiful towns in Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur, and everything seems to be in place for you to experience unforgettable moments.
The magic of the French Riviera
What would a stay in Nice be without a trip to the surrounding area? The Riviera is brimming with treasures, and Le Royal offers an ideal base from which to explore them. Just a few minutes away is the magnificent Cap de Nice, offering breathtaking coastal paths and secret coves where the French Riviera merges with the sky. If you fancy a seaside getaway, head for Cap Ferrat with its heavenly beaches, or the Port de Nice, where pleasure boats dance to the rhythm of the waves.
Or let yourself be tempted by a visit to old Nice and its charming alleyways, where history and modernity meet in a timeless ballet. From the Colline du Château to the famous Place Masséna, every street corner tells a story and every colorful facade whispers secrets from another time. Stroll along, amazed by the beauty of this city of a thousand faces, before returning to the comfort of Le Royal.
Living in Nice, between tradition and modernity
Nice is also a city where art and culture are omnipresent. Just a stone's throw from your hotel, you'll find the Musée Matisse, the Musée d'Art Moderne and the Musée Chagall. So many places to lose yourself in for a journey through the works of the greatest masters. The French Riviera has never ceased to inspire artists, and you'll soon understand why as you stroll its narrow streets, admire its beaches and contemplate its sunsets.
At Hotel Le Royal, we know that every detail counts to make your stay perfect. Whether you're here for a weekend or a week, whether you're a hiking enthusiast or just want to relax, Nice has something for everyone. Nice, the jewel of the Côte d'Azur, is just waiting for you.
