Negresco hotel Nice
The first proper luxury hotel in France, the iconic Negresco Hotel is a grand dame of European hospitality and an essential part of history. Romanian-born entrepreneur Henri Negresco opened the hotel in 1913 with its stunning pink dome — designed to attract Europe's upper-class crowds. The hotel was designed in the Belle Époque style by architect Édouard-Jean Niermans, with a show-stopping pink dome that has become one of Nice's most recognizable landmarks. Designed by the famous glass artisan Gustave Eiffel.
Originally designed as an abode of royalty, celebrities and the elite from across the world, Hotel Negresco has been a host to families such as Salvador Dalí Coco Chanel or Elizabeth Taylor. The highlight is a collection of art that could fill a museum spanning centuries, making this hotel feel unique and full of character. Lavish interiors of antique furniture, chandeliers, and original artwork create a sensual yet timeless elegance.
The Negresco has maintained its position of luxury in the city. Their dedication to history yet still incorporating all of today's modernism pays tribute to extraordinary service. Even today, it remains a symbol of elegance and old-world glamour - still offering guests to this day an unforgettable experience that embodies all things luxurious about Europe.
