Hyatt Regency Nice, an icon of the Promenade des Anglais

The restaurant is called Le 3e and offers guests five star Mediterranean cuisine created using the best local and seasonal ingredients. It’s one of ‘the’ places to be seen in Nice, especially during the summer months when the seafront terrace is open. It is open for main meals between 12pm-2.30pm and 7-10pm and there is a snack menu available from 2.30pm-11pm. The bar is located on the third floor and serves an array of classic cocktails and you can also ask to have one custom-made especially for you. There’s often a pianist in attendance as well as plenty of plush furnishings to ensure comfort goes along with the elegance of the establishment. There is a small tapas menu and the entire area is open from 11am-midnight.

The hotel also has both a beautiful indoor pool and a cooler outdoor pool. During the summer the terrace is opened up so you can relax on sun loungers around the pool, but during the winter months, you may instead wish to head inside to the heated pool, surrounded by loungers. There is also a sauna and Turkish bath for you to relax in, or if you want to be a little more active, there’s a fitness centre to accommodate your needs. For something completely different, head to the casino, where you can while away the hours on the slot machines or various table games perhaps taking in a show or concert in either the Venitien or Azur Salon.
