Des Alizés 10 rue de Suisse tel 04.93.88.85.08, fax 04.93.16.21.04. Rather dingy, but an excellent-value and hospitable hotel. Ask for a front room with a view of the square. Under €30.

Comté de Nice 29 rue de Dijon tel 04.93.88.94.56, www.hotelcomtedenice.com. In a quiet neighbourhood five minutes' walk north of the gare SNCF. What it lacks in charm is made up for by the spacious rooms and modern amenities. €55–70
