Le WindsoR — Jungle Art Hotel

At 11 rue Dalpozzo, in a 19th-century building 500 metres from the Promenade des Anglais, WindsoR — Jungle Art Hotel is a delicious anomaly in Nice's hotel landscape. This 4-star property resembles no other — it is a living contemporary art museum where each of the 33 rooms has been designed and decorated by a different artist. Ben's room, Glen Baxter's room, the Mexico room with jacuzzi and garden view — every stay is a new artistic experience.

Le WindsoR's secret is its tropical garden — an oasis of bamboo, fruit trees and lush vegetation in Nice's city centre, with a heated outdoor pool (May to October). The lobby transforms with temporary exhibitions and ephemeral installations. The hotel for travellers who want their hotel room to be an artistic experience as much as a place of rest.
