Old Nice, a stone's throw from Le Royal hotel
Have you ever dreamed of strolling through one of the most beautiful old towns on the Côte d'Azur? Vieux Nice, just a stone's throw from the Hotel Le Royal, is perfect for those wishing to immerse themselves in the history and culture of Nice. Its narrow streets and colorful facades have a typically Mediterranean feel, where every step invites you to discover a piece of Nice's rich past. Whether you're here for the first time or a regular visitor, this district never ceases to surprise and charm!
A journey between history and modernity
A stroll through Old Nice
Stroll through the cobbled streets of Vieux Nice and let your senses guide you. What about a stop at the famous Cours Saleya flower market? Here, the scent of fresh-cut flowers mingles with the spicy aromas of local produce, and the bright colors of the stalls catch the eye. The architecture is equally appealing. The Palais Lascaris, a Baroque jewel, houses an art museum and offers a fascinating plunge into history. Continue on to Place Rossetti, where the church of Sainte-Réparate overlooks the square, a true tribute to the history and beauty of Nice.
Why not climb up to the Colline du Château? This verdant park offers exceptional views over the city, the port and the Mediterranean Sea. It's the ideal place to take a deep breath and enjoy the peace and quiet away from the hustle and bustle of the old town.
An immersion in Nice culture
The hidden treasures of Vieux Nice
Vieux Nice is also about tradition and craftsmanship. Whether you're a history buff or simply curious, you'll be amazed by the district's cultural wealth. Why not drop by Place Garibaldi or the Palais de Justice? These emblematic monuments will take you back in time. A stone's throw away, the Musée d'Art Moderne de Nice exhibits contemporary works in a historic setting, creating a unique dialogue between past and present.
When it comes to gastronomy, don't leave without sampling the famous socca! In the hidden streets of Vieux Nice, you'll find restaurants serving this must-try dish. And if you're looking for fresh produce, take a trip to the Cours Saleya market: the fruits, vegetables and spices are an invitation to cook up tasty Mediterranean dishes.
Where Vieux Nice meets the sea
The Promenade des Anglais nearby
What could be better after exploring Vieux Nice than to take a break on the legendary Promenade des Anglais? Just a few minutes' walk away, this iconic promenade runs along the seafront, offering breathtaking views of the Baie des Anges. You can feel the sea breeze on your face as you take in the panoramic view. A great place to relax, it's ideal for a stroll at the end of the day or a morning jog.
As you make your way up to the Promenade du Paillon, a veritable green corridor, you'll discover a serene space in the heart of the city. Between shady gardens and fountains, it's the perfect place to sit and contemplate the beauty of Nice. Here, the bustle of the old town mingles with the tranquility of nature.
Vieux Nice by night: another facet to explore
When the sun sets, Vieux Nice takes on a whole new light. As night falls, little squares like Place du Palais and Place Masséna become meeting places where locals and visitors alike gather for a drink or a good meal. Do you like a cosy atmosphere? The neighborhood's restaurants and bars invite you to extend your evening. The Place Rossetti, illuminated by string lights, is a popular spot for locals to enjoy an artisanal ice cream while listening to street musicians.
Prefer a more cultural evening? The Opéra de Nice awaits you for an unforgettable show, or indulge in a glass of wine in one of Vieux Nice's hidden wine bars, for a more intimate and warm moment.
