We arrived at night, the property appeared abandoned from the street. After some time of searching we found a keypad with an intercom button, someone answered and let us in. We entered a dark lobby with stairs and elevator, no lights, upstairs we found a hole in the wall where the reception was, young man spoke English but was new and didn’t know about the offsite parking that was advertised at 10€ per day on the website, he contacted manager who sent address, we moved our car there and there were no signs for 10€ we parked there anyway which would’ve cost 26€ for the time needed (12hrs) we went back to the hotel and spoke to a new man ?manager who didn’t have good English and kept saying he didn’t know about the offsite parking- so I believe this was false advertising. The room itself was large, old style bed and bedding provided. No towels or toiletries provided. Rooms seemed clean enough for the night but glad we were only there for the one night- the surrounding area felt unsafe at night.

This place was close to the rail station. There were shops and stores nearby. Inconvenient because no shampoo or shower gel in the bathroom. Internet did not work. Very inconvenient.

I'm really glad I didn't mind some reviews that I read saying bad things about Hostel Pastoral 'cause it was one of the best hostels I've been in. The location is perfect, near the station, restaurants, markets and a perfect walking distance to the beach and the main touristic atractions. The staff is SUPER friendly, all of them are nice but I must say thatTom is simply the greatest guy I'll find, you can ask him advice for places to visit, beer or anything else. They clean everyday and you can see that - if something is not clean is because of the guests that sometimes completly ignore the simple rules that you have to make the place comfortable for everyone. I highly recommend Pastoral Hostel in Nice!

Very basic hostel, but in a good location: just 5 minute walk from the railway station of Nice. A bit old though, building and facilities would benefit from some renovation/fixing. Room with a shower didn´t include towels (luckily one can rent one from the reception), and the shower was rather old and seemed a bit unhygienic. Reception/staff was friendly and helpful, and we could also leave our luggage at the hostel for a day free of charge. All in all: if you just need a well-priced overnight place to stay for a night close to the station and city center (and don´t require any extra), this might be an ok option.

It’s in a good location near the train station and walkable to the old town and beach. The staff were friendly and helpful and there are kitchen facilities to cook your own food. The bathroom needs work - door didn’t close properly, shower didn’t drain well and you had to hold it as the was no bracket on the wall.

It was positive overall. The price was good, location near train station and staff were quite good.

Excellent location. Easy walk to Nice-Ville Station. McDonald's and supermarkets barely a few hundred metres. Room 17 very quiet. Pleasantly surprise that shared bathroom only meant shared toilet as I had my own shower.

Place is clean and location is ok, but condition is poor. Many things are broken: micro wave oven, electrical socket, shower door lock, toilet door handle etc. One staff member was kind and friendly, but the other was rude and arrogant. Many things are broken, and you think this place is half hostel half joke, but the rude staff member takes it very seriously. Don’t leave your back-bag in the room after check-out even for a short time. The room door might open, but wait until personnel can take your bag to reception. Despite broken things check-out is a formal and stiff protocol. A failure to comply may lead to semi-hysterical response ;D

We did not expect much as we chose this place mainly due to its price. Still, we were very disappointed. We had a private room with a double bed and a private bathroom, but that did not help on the cleanliness of the place. The bathroom was clearly not washed properly (stains all over the place) and it smelled like smoke. Furthermore, the bedding was full of rips and tears and holes. It was so bad that we chose to rather not use the duvet and freeze during the nights. The only positive thing about the room was that it was so nasty that we spent next to no time in the hotel and rather spent it all exploring Nice. Looking past the horrible room, a positive thing about the hotel is that it is fairly closely located to both the train station and the city centre. In addition, the people working there seemed nice.

This location may be nice and close to the train station but that was my only positive about this place. We paid for a private room with a bathroom and the bathroom smelled like an ashtray with a run down and damaged toilet. The bed had evidence of bed bugs (small blood spots) and the staff allows homeless people to hang out in the common areas throughout the night, as we found out at 2:00am when we were being sold shoes while trying to use the microwave. There was a woman that was assulted by another woman in the shared room across from our private room so we were woken up by screaming in the middle of the night that went on for about an hour. The woman who did the assulting was allowed to stay in the hotel in the shared room for the remainder of the night and the staff said there was nothing that they could do. I realize this review sounds made up but it was truly stunningly horrible experience. Avoid this place at all costs and hopefully it will be shut down soon. Stay literally anywhere else.

It was slightly more expensive than average hostels. The bunk beds were not amazing but passable. The service was friendly enough. The room was terribly dirty however, there was dirt and dust everywhere, and i refused to use the bathroom, instead taking showers at the beach, bevause the bathroom was not only dirty, but smelled like raw sewage.

Thomas was great at checkin . Location is close to train station and main shpping district. Approximately a ten to 15 minute walk to city center and beach. Wiuld stay there again

Great staff and location!
