Promenade des Anglais
7 iconic kilometres along the seafront, on foot or by bike, from the port to the airport.
The pearl of the French Riviera, between sea and hills
Hotels in Nice
Nice blends Mediterranean ease, Riviera lifestyle and Belle Époque heritage along the legendary Promenade des Anglais.
The capital of the French Riviera, Nice charms with a unique light that once inspired Matisse and Chagall, the ochre façades of the Old Town, its Provençal markets and the perfect curve of the Baie des Anges. A city where you stroll barefoot on the pebbles after lunch on a terrace at cours Saleya.
Resapass negotiates preferential rates at Nice's finest addresses — Belle Époque palaces overlooking the Mediterranean, boutique hotels in the Carré d'Or, intimate hideaways in the hills of Cimiez — for a true insider's take on the Riviera.
