Better to stay in Central
Nice or Vieux Nice?
Also, can anyone recommend a guide for Nice and the small towns in the area?
Thank you.
I’ve always stayed by the Old Port, just beyond the eastern end of the Promenade d’Anglaise. The best restaurants and bakeries are in that neighborhood, the tram is accessible at Place Garibaldi, and like the vibe there.
I’ve not hired a guide to tour Nice, but Rick Steves’ guidebook has good information, for the city and nearby places like Monaco, Villefranche, Saint-Paul-de-Vence, and Antibes.
