Hilton Debuts in Charming City of Nice - Get updated on what's happening in tourism!

Hilton (NYSE: HLT) announced the opening of DoubleTree by Hilton Nice Centre Iconic, a stylish and modern hotel nestled on the picturesque French Riviera. Guests at DoubleTree by Hilton Nice Centre Iconic find themselves perfectly positioned for exploration of the local area and beyond.  

Ideally situated in the heart of Nice, the Promenade des Anglais along the Mediterranean coast and the fairytale Old Town, with rich museums and the must-see Castle Hill, are only a short walk from the hotel. DoubleTree by Hilton Nice Centre Iconic is also well connected, less than 15 minutes from the Nice Côte d’Azur airport and offers direct access to the Nice-Ville Train Station. Cannes and Monaco are less than 25 minutes away making it an ideal base for discovering the glamorous Blue Coast.

The hotel is set in an exciting new mixed-use development set to be a lifestyle destination in the city with entertainment, retail and hospitality experiences. The complex cuts a complementary yet contrasting modern figure in the city with its unusual design inspired by Azurite crystals, which are said to create a positive aura. Upon arriving at the property guests can expect an inviting atmosphere and airy feel as they make their way to the fifth floor for check-in, where they will be greeted by breathtaking views and a signature DoubleTree cookie welcome. The hotel itself boasts 105 stylishly appointed guest rooms, featuring warm and contemporary furnishings with a French twist. Families will appreciate the spacious family rooms, accommodating up to five guests. The fitness center and event space also offer stunning sea views, while the terrace and Iconic Bar provide panoramic vistas of the Mediterranean coastline.

With a world-renowned culinary scene, Nice has plenty to offer from delicious local cuisines and prestigious vineyards within easy reach. Later this year there will be a new addition to the foodie scene, the 5th-floor panoramic restaurant, Pesca, which will open its doors at the hotel for a unique shared dining experience. With a continuously evolving menu, minimal waste, and the best selection of fresh fish available daily, Pesca presents its one-of-a-kind ‘Theatre of Fish’ concept, where guests will be entertained by the resident fishmongers and dynamic pricing set up. 

“We’re thrilled to be adding to our portfolio in the French Riviera, bringing the fast-growing DoubleTree by Hilton brand to this in-demand destination. Nice continues to attract millions of visitors annually as one of the largest cities in France, with its UNESCO World Heritage Status, strong transport links and stunning coastal setting.
