An ideal day at the Hôtel West End in Nice
Facing the Mediterranean Sea, in the heart of the Promenade des Anglais, the Hôtel West End is ideally located for enjoying the gentle Nice way of life. Whether you’re a lover of seaside strolls, a keen explorer or a culinary connoisseur, here’s how to spend a perfect day around our establishment.
Morning: stroll and panorama
At first light, let yourself be carried away by the mild climate as you stroll along the legendary Promenade des Anglais. Breathe in the sea air, then head for Vieux-Nice.
Stop off on the Cours Saleya, where the flower market unfolds its vibrant colors. Stroll through the stalls and discover the local soul of the city. Continue on to the hill of the Château, Nice’s green lung. The climb is amply rewarded by a breathtaking view of the Bay of Angels. Take time to admire the famous artificial waterfall and savor this suspended moment.
Noon: Niçoise flavour
After this beautiful morning, the narrow streets of Vieux-Nice invite you to take a gourmet break. Let yourself be seduced by one of the small, typical restaurants where local specialties take pride of place. At René Socca, a well-known Niçois institution, enjoy socca, pissaladière or zucchini flower fritters. A simple, authentic and tasty cuisine, to be enjoyed on the go or on the terrace.
Afternoon: shopping and culture
The afternoon is the perfect time to explore the boutiques of the city center. Rue Paradis and Avenue Jean Médecin are brimming with everything from luxury ready-to-wear to local designer creations. If you prefer cultural discoveries, don’t miss the Musée Masséna, next door to the hotel. Here, you can immerse yourself in the city’s history while admiring its Belle Époque architecture.
Evening: sunset and a mild Mediterranean climate
End your day in style with an aperitif overlooking the sea, on the terrace of one of the many beachside bars. And why not extend this moment with a gastronomic dinner at the Le Siècle restaurant? The chef offers refined, inventive cuisine designed to tantalize your taste buds.
In Nice, every moment has a taste of vacation and discovery. And around the Hôtel West End, everything is in place for a day that’s as enriching as it is exotic.
