The hotel is located just outside the quiet and pleasant village of La Colle sur Loup and offer rooms with a magnificent view on the valley and the village of Saint Paul (which is actually a 5 mins drive from here, if you take the right road).
We stayed in a room for families with an additional bed and a small veranda. The room was ok, although some parts would need some renovation. The owners are very kind and helpful, everything was perfect in service. The swimming pool and the garden are small but clean and comfortable. A PC connected to the internet was available for anybody at the reception at no charge. Parking was also free for guests.
We did not try breakfast, which is served inside (again wonderful view!) or in the garden.
We would suggest this hotel to small families and independent travellers who have a car at their disposal.

The Marc-Hely is a very pleasant B&B situated inland just North of Nice.

The hotel is run by a father and son duo. The rooms are quiet and comfortable and some have views over neighboring St. Paul-de-Vence.
Just one small word of warning. Their website claims that St.Paul-de-Vence is three minutes away. It is not. It is at least 15 minutes drive away and not really walkable.

The family run hotel is excellent value for the price. The rooms are clean and cozy. The view from the hotel to St. Paul de Vence is outstanding. And, the service was extremely good. It is a short drive to Vence and to Nice. There are very good restaurants in the neighbourhood. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone staying in the Nice area who has a car.

This is a well run B&B hotel in La Colle Sur Loupe, a sort of spacious dormitory suburb a few km inland from Nice. The hotel is managed by a helpful father and son team. Most rooms have a good view from their balconies over the valley to the picturesque hill village of St Paul de Vence, which is just 10 minutes drive away. Breakfast is simple cereal and croissants, but perfectly adequate: it can be taken in the conservatory or in your room. We paid 115 euro for two per night all in: which is reasonable for this very expensive area. The hotel is set well away from the main road down its own drive, and there is plenty of (free) parking, and a pleasant garden setting. Whilst we were there the small swiming pool was being readied for the season. The rooms had air conditioning, though we didn't need to try this as the weather was nice and cool when we were there.

The hotel does not do evening meals, but needless to say there are several good restaurants nearby.

If you want a location away from the busy coast, but nevertheless well placed for reaching sites both on the coast and inland, then I imagine this is as good as any. I particulalry recommend the Gorges-du-Loup tour, and a trip to the 'Picasso' village of Mougins. Trips to the Riveira coast are obviously de rigeur, but beware the very busy traffic on the coast roads.

The hotel is part of the Logis de France chain, which we have generally found to be very good value, especially those offering evening meals with half board rates, and they are easily booked on ------
