Hôtel du Couvent, a benchmark for luxury in Nice

  • FAYAT BÂTIMENT Côte d'Azur
  • Hôtellerie

The former Convent of the Visitation in Nice, a 17th-century listed monument, has been transformed into a 5-star hotel. Teams from FAYAT BÂTIMENT Côte d'Azur rose to the challenge of combining heritage preservation with architectural innovation.

A prestigious project in the heart of Nice

The refurbishment of the 3 buildings and the extension of a new contemporary wing were carried out by FAYAT BÂTIMENT Côte d'Azur teams, covering the demolition, structural work and carpentry phases, as well as the logistical management of the site.

The 7,500 m² complex now boasts 88 rooms, including 18 luxury suites with breathtaking views over the Promenade des Anglais. Three refined restaurants, a convivial bar, an artisanal bakery with a period oven, as well as a herbalist's shop and Roman baths enrich the visitor experience. The terraced garden, with its swimming pool, offers a spectacular panorama of the Mediterranean, reinforcing the atmosphere of luxury and well-being.

A place that combines heritage and modernity

Restoration of the roof structure and passageways was essential to preserving the building's historic character. This meticulous restoration work has preserved the soul of the building. The building retains its original architectural features, such as ashlar, light lime walls and Carrara marble, while incorporating modern equipment.

Every intervention has been designed to respect the soul of the place, while meeting the requirements of today's standards.
