The Pool at Hyatt Regency Nice Palais de la Mediterranee

"Now the South Beach-kitsch neoclassical-meets-art deco exterior with its distinctive double tier of pillars is home to grand public spaces: a pool with a colonnaded portico and a lobby with black and gold pillars, polished marble floors, and gigantic arched windows"

"As you might expect from the prom-front location, the sea views here are extraordinary, both from the guestrooms (though not all of them) and from the public spaces, notably the beautiful pool on the third floor"

"Additional highlights include the solarium with indoor and outdoor pools, and the restored Art Deco casino"

"A fitness room and an indoor pool are on the third floor, a sauna and a steam room complete the sixth-floor gym complex, and an outdoor pool is in the courtyard immediately behind the facade"

"Behind the hotel's white Art Deco facade, there's a large indoor/outdoor pool area, modern marble-floored common areas with artistic touches, three gourmet eateries and bars, and a Turkish bath"

"A heated indoor and outdoor pool refreshes guests up on the third floor"
