Pamper yourself on the French Riviera at a super-chic Nice spa hotel
Splendid Hôtel & Spa sits in Nice’s city centre, just a five-minute walk north of Promenade des Anglais and the beach. The Matisse Museum is a 15-minute drive away, and the city’s casinos can be reached in around 10 minutes on foot.
Explore the historic streets of the Old Town district, Vieille Ville, and take in the Italian architecture, or ascend Castle Hill for a lovely view over the area, a wander around the castle grounds and a dip in the waterfall. The surrounding area is populated by vineyards, which are best explored by bicycle, and for those who fancy a little less activity and a little more alcohol, wine tastings and vineyard tours abound in the surrounding region.
