Gabrielle - Amazing Balcony Nice, Provence-Alps-French Riviera

Holiday Rental Description

Overview

Gabrielle reminds us of the classic movie 'A room with a View' with Helen Bonham Carter and the enigmatic Julian Sands, but set in Nice. Terracotta rooftops, colourful cathedral domes and Niçoise life is laid out before you from the rooftop wrap around balcony that extends the full length of this studio apartment. The decor is as classic as the movie with unique modern twists. The location is central, with Nice on your doorstep just waiting to be explored. The cherry on the cake as there is a lift too.

Address: 11 Avenue Georges Clemenceau, Nice

Floor/ Building: 5th floor with lift

Outside Space

Imagine waking up and walking out of French doors that lead out onto your own private balcony that wraps around the entire apartment. Choose which view you wish to take in from the two seating areas in the clouds!

Bathrooms

Even the bathroom has views and french windows and of course the essential shower cubicle, toilet and sink.

Living Area

The studio has a comfy king size bed in the middle of the room and is surrounded by original decor such as the marble fireplace and original tiled floors.

The decor is a mixture of classic and modern with oak, gilt mirrors teamed with two cosy velvet armchairs perfect to relax with a glass of wine whilst cooking. A Philip Starck transparent perspex chair to add a contemporary twist.
