In the old Nice, nestled in the North-Italian part of Provence, lies a convent from the 17th century with a luxurious garden. Our spa hotel in Nice, France is a picture of light and simplicity. At the Hôtel du Couvent, time is passed by reading in the shade of a fig tree, indulging in a few strokes in the lap pool or chatting with the next table at the guinguette cafe. You can take time to meditate at the Movement Studio, seek advice at the herbalist in the cloister or enjoy a thermal treatment at the Roman baths, before stepping out into the hustle and bustle of the centre of Nice.

In the heart of the old town, secluded and overlooking the Mediterranean, the former Visitation convent welcomes visitors into an architecture steeped in the memory of the place. Once the porch is crossed, they find themselves at the heart of this centuries-old site, among ancient stones, wisteria shade, and the scent of the courtyard’s orange trees. Guests are received under the linden tree and greeted by the aromas and flavors of a glass of natural sparkling wine, our welcome cocktail made with herbs from our garden, or an herbal tea from our herbalist, accompanied by a freshly baked madeleine, warm and comforting. A simple and warm sensory experience, imbued with joyful hospitality.
