Very good

I really enjoyed my stay in Nice. I was in the individual room, it was compact but enough space for me, very clean and comfortable. Staff very friendly and helpful. I quite liked the area, there were markets around and it is super close to the train station if you want to visit the other cities/beaches in Cote d'azur like Cannes and Monaco.
There were a limited amount of hotels available in the area at the time of booking. It seemed like the best option based on the pictures which were deceiving. Parking is across the street at the train station. Which was tough to find a spot. It’s not the best neighborhood and not convenient to any tourist areas. Check in was fine and the employee was help and nice. The hotel is run down, dark and creepy. The elevator fits 2 without luggage. We had to haul the luggage with 1 person and the other take stairs. Entering the room there is a desk made of particle board, a bed, 2 small round tables (aka your nightstands), and a chair. There were no toiletries provided. Not even Kleenex. No shampoo etc. just hand soap and body wash. The towels were old brown towels. I’ve never seen brown towels in a hotel. We were so disappointed and upset. I tried to find something else in the area and just eat the cost ($730) but what was left wasn’t much better. We set an alarm and got out of there so fast. If we would have paid under $200 then I would say you get what you pay for. This whole experience ruined it a bit for us in Nice. I’m just thankful it was only one night.

City Break!
Perfect location for exploring the city, and within 10minutes to metro and train stations.
Hotel staff were friendly and allowed us to check in early which was much appreciated.
Room was cosey, quite small but for somewhere to sleep and shower it worked well.
Plugs in the room were temperamental, with neither plugs at bedside tables working.
Balcony was a nice touch especially in the hot weather to allow some air into the room ( as stated its quite small so heats up very quickly ).
Was a great city break and the hotels location made it perfect for the type of exploring holiday we had in mind.
We reserved a triple room (the single bed was a little small…) and found the size of the room more than adequate. Having access to a mini fridge, kettle, hair dryer and safe was extremely beneficial to our trip. A surprise bonus was a closet with shelves in the room!
The hotel location was excellent for proximity to the train station being within a 3 minute walk. Dining and shopping areas were also walkable.
There were 2 nights that were quite warm in the room where the ventilation system did not turn on. (Maybe it was our error!)
Overall we had an enjoyable experience and would stay at this hotel again.
Toilet smelly, water pressure low and unstable, sometimes hot sometimes cold, towels worn out, toilet lighting not bright, air con only hot air out even on cold mode. Only convenience to the nice ville station.
Fantastic stay for the price. Staff was extremely friendly. Would come back.

Nice small hotel situated on a busy street right accross the street from the main train station. A little noisy with the windows open. A good value overall.
Amazing friendly staff, all speak various languages, the hotel is directly opposite the main train station and a 15 min tram ride to the airport, beach is also 10min walk from the hotel
Hotel SoCo is super convenient for the railway station and its totally walkable to the centre of Nice or the promenade. The staff were so helpful and friendly, they made the stay great. The only negative is that I didn't think the breakfast was good value for the price.

Very clean hotel with friendly and helpful staff. Short walking distance to the Nice city center and Promenade des Anglais. Nice-Ville station is right across the street.
Highly recommend this hotel.
Decent small hotel, only 4 min walk from the train station. It’s about a 15-20 minute walk to the beach and boardwalk area. Clean and friendly, has an elevator and 24/7 reception. Great for a quick stopover.
