Has anyone stayed here before at Hotel Negresco in Nice? I was hoping to stay at Hotel de Paris in Monte Carlo for the VJ7 pre-cruise, but it's sold out. I'd appreciate any information/opinions on Negresco!

Lawrence: Have you checked TripAdvisor? I am sure you have seems to lots of good info - are you spending one night in Nice before cruise? I liked Nice, certainly not as posh as Monte Carlo but lots of fun I thought. Joanna

Joanna, I will only be in Nice for 1 night. I've actually never heard of TripAdvisor before... :eek: I'll have to check it out. Thanks for the info! And here's to hoping Tony's schedule works out! :D

Lawrence. The Negresco is very famous. This hotel has hosted some of the most important people in the world and has a great history. Every room is completely different. Full of antiques and unique furnishings. I have never stayed there but it is on my list of "must dos" for the future. Everyone on the French Riviera is aware of the hotel. Featured on lots of postcards.

We stayed there about 30 years ago. It's as Ngaire described it. One feels like being in a palace.The hotel de paris is over priced and over-rated. Loews hotel is much better value.

My parents stayed there some years ago, and still talk about it. They stayed on Ngaire's recommendation, and were very happy with the choice!

Do you know anything about the Le Meridien in Monte Carlo? The only reviews I can find are on TripAdvisor, and they're not particularly positive, tho' everybody says it's the only place on MonteCarlo with a beach....

Lawrence - I read somewhere that Le Meridien in Monte Carlo is/was under renovation construction. Obviously, it's anyone's guess if that will be done prior to the Voyager June 7 departure. If it was, it could be a great time to visit. If not, I guess it would depend on which areas of the hotel are affected. Cheers, Anne
