Promenade des Anglais Negresco (apartment)
Home descriptionThe apartment, ideal for a short break or longer vacation at any time of the year, has been lovingly restored and exquisitely furnished by the present owners for their own holidays, and is currently available for the discerning visitor seeking accommodation of outstanding quality in a spectacular location directly on the sea front. Designed to sleep up to four adults in comfort, the 600 sq.ft. apartment has the original 1930s herringbone parquet flooring in all areas except the kitchen and bathroom, elegant glazed doors between the light airy rooms, a collection of antique, Biedermeier, Art Deco and modern designer furniture, a fully fitted Italian kitchen and a stylish bathroom with Italian azzurro di Caltagirone ceramic tiles. Each of the three main rooms features the carefully restored 1930s plasterwork and a display of original artwork, mainly Polynesian. The apartment has an unusually favourable position at the front corner of the building, providing sea views to the east, south and south-west that are truly breathtaking. “C’est magnifique” is the most frequent reaction of those who have seen the apartment since refurbishment was completed..

In the other direction, Antibes, the historic old town surrounded by ramparts, is easily accessible by bus or train, and the fast train to Cannes takes just 15 minutes. Otherwise Cannes can be reached by means of a leisurely drive around Cap d’Antibes and Juan-les-Pins. Inland there are also some fascinating hilltop towns and villages, such as Eze. But visitors should leave time to explore Nice itself, that is a place to return to at different times of the year, especially as the city hosts some world-class art collections such as the Matisse Museum and the Chagall Museum. When Matisse came to Nice, he was particularly struck by "the radiant colours and luminosity of the daylight"., and he wrote: "When I realised I would see that light every morning, I could not believe my happiness". Nice / Promenade des Anglais areaAs one of France’s most famous and cosmopolitan holiday destinations, with its remarkable climate Nice is a magnet visitors from many countries who are keen on swimming, walking, cycling, rollerblading and sailing, or simply strolling along, basking in the sunshine and the holiday atmosphere and admiring the views. This particular stretch of the Promenade is dominated by the famous dome of the Hotel Negresco, dating back to the Belle Epoque and reminiscent of a wedding cake, and offers a variety of hotels, restaurants, pavement cafés and piano bars, some with a dance floor. Stylish entertainment is available in either of the two casinos, and it is a leisurely walk along the front to Vieux Nice, the old town with a wealth of fascinating shops, historic buildings, churches and squares that has been attracting artists, writers and musicians for centuries, and where on most mornings you can wander through the flower market in Cours Saleya, or the antique market on Mondays. When the market stalls are packed away, the whole area is given over to restaurants and pavement cafés, where you can order a meal as you watch the world go by, or admire the waterfall on the castle hill framed by Mediterranean pines. The focal point of the Cours Saleya is the Palais des Rois Sardes, dating back to the time when the Savoy dynasty held sway Nice, and indeed the Italian influence is still evident, not just in the local cuisine but also in the people, the dialect and the street names.
