Boscolo Exedra Nice
The classic exterior of this five-star palace on Boulevard Victor Hugo is beautiful, but it doesn’t really prepare guests for the interior: a bright, white confection accessorised with striking pieces of modern art. Pretty rooms (112 of them) continue the theme, and come equipped with minibars, TVs, bathrobes and slippers, and free wifi. There’s an Italian restaurant, La Pescheria, and an elegant bar, plus an otherworldly spa with a pool, sauna, Turkish bath, treatment rooms and fitness area.
