On Avenue Félix Faure, Hôtel Aston La Scala, formerly Grand Hôtel Aston, 4-star, is a historic landmark: its 1868 Niçoise facade signed by Taton housed the Hôtel Chauvain, Nice's most luxurious hotel in the 19th century, and inspired the legend of Sir Thomas Coventry's noon cannon. In the heart of the city, 2 minutes from Place Masséna, the Old Town and the tram; recently renovated.
Location review
The hotel enjoys a very central location, just 200 meters from Place Masséna and 500 meters from Old Nice, making it ideal for exploring the city center on foot. The airport is about 8.6 km away, approximately a 17-minute drive, which is reasonable but less convenient than staying near the airport. The Jean-Médecin area is lively and well connected, offering a good balance between urban life and transport access.
