Stayed at Choiseul - Nice, France.
|
Nice is very pleasant although we only spent the one night there before moving down the coast. Best to avoid (from previous experience) during high season, from both a traffic and a 'crowding' point of view. Best bars and restaurants, naturally, are near the seafront- around 20 mins' walk. Buy a 'Carte Isabelle' at the railway station opposite the hotel for a day's unlimited travel (valid until midnight) on all stops between Ventimiglia (Italy), Monaco-Monte Carlo, Nice, Cannes, St Raphael & Frejus. A real bargain at 10 Euros per person, between early June & end of Sep. Do it on a Friday and catch the market at Ventimiglia, one of the best across Europe. Ventimiglia is around 50 minutes from Nice, Monte Carlo around 30 minutes, and St Raphael around 1 hour 20 minutes. The view from the train along the coast, especially between Nice & St Raphael, is fantastic on a good day. One of the best days of our holiday by far!
There are also good coach services from the seafront connecting Nice to most major attractions in the area, but we hired a car for 2 weeks and this was the best way to do it!
