| I think we did not like the area of Juan Les Pins mostly. Becuase it is a popular area, the room was pricey. One would expect more for what we paid. We had clean beds, working toilet and shower with hot water. The towels were TERRIBLE the first day - sand paper - but nice a fresh the next... go figure... I would suggest NOT staying in Juan Les Pins, but rather somewhere else on the Cote D'Azure - namely Nice or Monaco |

| This hotel was awful. The room desparately needed renovating. It needed paint, new carpet, you could see the dirt accumulated on the top of the cloth chandelier. Worst of all, though, the bathroom smelled like urine, as if no one ever flushed the toilet. It got worse every day. The hotel is across the street from a very popular open air Polynesian club with live music until about 3am. You had to sleep with the shutters closed and the air conditioning on to not here the music. Otherwise, the location was great. I would not recommend this hotel unless it was renovated. |

| i think this hotel badly needs a repaint and refurbishment. Even for a budget hotle it is very shabby. I also found the owner very defensive when I asked if the hotel had a late check out facillity. ( which I fully offered and expected to pay for) He was quite terse with me, which I found very rude. I was also treated with suspicion just because I am a single traveller which in these times i found very unfriendly. The rooms at this hotel are also very, very small. The room was smaller than my bathroom at home. However as i didn't request a different room, as I found the blase attitude of the owners and staff off putting. I shal never stay there again, or recommend it to anyone. |

| The receptionist doesn't speak English. Yopu have to keep your keys with you all day because there's nobody in reception almost any time. The room was so small that you can´t open the door completely because you find the bed. The toilet was dirty and in a very bad care. If you can find another hotel, please choose it. If you pay 60 euros per night for a single room you don´t deserve those circunstances. |

| Again this hotel was very hard to find and I really think that Venere must make the maps of these hotels more accurate. The hotel was very clean the staff were very welcoming but the facilities in the room were very poor and cramp. |

| Al mio arrivo al Savoy non ho trovato propriamente quello che mi aspettavo dalla descrizione e dalle foto riportate nel sito internet. L'hotel è ampiamente al di sotto della sua categoria 2 stelle. La camera che mi hanno assegnato non era matrimoniale, ma bensì con un letto a 1 piazza e mezza appoggiato per di più alla parete e talmente piccola che la porta d'ingresso non si poteva aprire completamente. Il "bagno" (se così si può definire) è davvero il pezzo forte!!! Ai pedi (molto ai piedi)del letto è stata eretta a mezza altezza una paretina in legno con due porte a soffietto: una per la doccia e il lavandino, l'altra per il wc, quest'ultima talmente stretta che che, provando a sedersi sul water, cosa non facile perché le ginocchia andavano a sbattere contro la parete antistante, dotata inoltre di finestra con tendina trasparente, non era più possibile chiudere la porta. Figuriamoci la PRIVACY!!! Nessun ulteriore commento sulla pulizia, che, a mio avviso, lasciava alquanto a desiderare. Questo mi ha costretto a cercarmi un'altra sistemazione, cosa che purtroppo sono riuscita a trovare solo dalla notte successiva. Quindi ho lasciato l'hotel la mattina seguente spiegando le mie motivazioni, pagando 65 euro + tassa di soggiorno per la sola notte di cui ho usufruito. Tengo a precisare che mi sono stati chiesti 60 euro per il diritto di prenotazione via internet, cosa a me del tutto nuova, che chiaramente mi sono rifiutata di pagare dopo avergli fatto vedere le copie della mia prenotazione. Comunque non hanno fatto nessuna insistenza, forse ci hanno provato??? Spero vivamente che vogliate cancellare questo nominativo dalle vostre proposte, al fine di non rovinare il vostro nome. |

| We found the hotel to be tidy, but ancient--and not necessarily in the charming sort of way. The door to the bathroom was of the accordian sort that refused to close, and it was impossible to shower without spraying water everywhere. Furnishings looked as though they hadn't been updated in nearly 30 years, and for €90/night, it was a waste of money. The man working at the desk seemed to speak no English whatsoever, but was very polite. When our air conditioner worked, it dropped the temperature in the room from 28 C to about 25 C ... Pay €10 more and stay somewhere 3-star! |

| We could not use the private beach without paying for beach beds. The room was so tiny only one of us could move about the room at any one time. There was nowhere to put our cases and we had to move them every time we wanted to pon a window or wardrobe. |

| rooms are quite small even in triple ones, bathroom was incredibly tiny and shower curtain was filthy. Beds are OK, TV useless, location great. Overall, if you going to be on the beach or walking around all the time ( and location is perfect for that ) then hotel is more than OK. |

| Unser Aufenthalt im Hotel Savoy in Juan-Les-Pins war alles andere als erholsam. Das ganze Theater begann schon beim Zimmerbezug. Das Zimmer war winzig, Der Ventilator mit Staubfäden bedeckt, so dass es einem grauste ihn zu benutzen und lieber in der brütenden Hitze schmorte. Auf dem Bettüberzug befanden sich noch Krümel und alles sah ein bisschen heruntergekommen aus... Nach der 12-stündigen Autofahrt freuten wir uns auf eine erfrischende Dusche...diese Freude verging aber schnell wieder als wir das Badezimmer sahen. Die Plastiktür fiel praktisch auseinander als ich sie schliessen wollte...der Duschvorhang war mit einer schwarzen Schicht versehen...Schimmel. Wir meldeten dies sofort dem Hotel-Personal, welches sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend den Duschvorhang sofort ersetzte und die Schuld auf die Putzfrau abschob. Jeden Morgen wurden wir liebevoll von einem Poltern an der Tür geweckt, die Putzequipe die unser Zimmer reinigen wollte. Was die allerdings genau reinigten bleibt ein Rätsel, denn die Handtücher wurden, wenn überhaupt nur schon zusammengelegt und an die stangen gehängt. Eines Abend benötigten wir das Glas im badezimmer rein Aspirin-technisch und liessen es auf dem Tisch im Zimmer stehen. Am nächsten Tag war es zwar wieder im Badezimmer, die Aspirin-Reste waren aber noch unversehrt im Glas erhalten. Es wären noch dutzende solche Beispiele aufzuzählen. Die Krönung von allem war dann noch, als wir am letzten Tag für eine nacht überraschend das Zimmer wechseln mussten, den Grund wollte man uns nicht angeben. Schlussendlich lenkten wir im Sinn von "schlimmer kanns ja nicht werden" ein...und das ganze begann von vorne: Schwarzer Duschvorhang, Ekelerregende Flecken auf dem Teppich, Dreckige Wände, 2cm Staub auf dem Schrank etc... Also bitte: Das Hotel Savoy ist, trotz idealer Lage NICHT EMPFEHLENSWERT UND IN JEDEM FALL ZU MEIDEN. |

| The owner Jean Pierre was charming and very helpful. The property can only be described as sad. The decor must have been 20-30 years old since last decorated. Indeed my wife and I commented it would almost be worthwhile buying the property so it could be redecorated as it could be improved immeasurably.What was most disappointing were the facilities available. The web site unfortunately gives one the impression there was an outdoor pool,tennis,golf,private beach, water sports, gym and sauna??? It turns out these are leisure facilities in the general area!!! The web site should be amended to indicate that these facilities are not directly associated with the hotel. After all in most coastal towns you could reel of such a list and more! The hotel really had no facilities other than a bedroom and a small smoke filled area for breakfast. The owner brought breakfast to our room and throughout our visit was kind - he made it bearable. I guess the reasonable price should have told us not to expect much - but the website misled us. Our love of France remained intact, if a little dented. Mike & Pam Clark |

| The hotel was on a very busy street but was right in the middle of several nice resteraunts and was close to the beach. There was a parking garage nearby but the price was rather steep. The bathroom was rather cramped and the room was nothing to write home about, but who wants to spend much time in a hotel room when you are on the Riviera. |
