To ensure your accommodation during the event, we highly recommend you make your reservation as soon as possible

There are other hotels available in the region such as Hôtel Mercure Nice Promenade des Anglais, Le Splendid, AC Hotel by Marriott Nice etc. but due to the high demand in June, their prices may be high, and somme rooms may be booked quickly.
