Holiday Inn Nice Port Saint Laurent

A huge seafront mall with food and kids stores works especially well on a rainy or brutally hot afternoon.

A proper brick stop inside the mall is useful when kids need something aimed entirely at them.

A small striking museum with sculptures and objects that works well as a short cultural stop rather than a whole day.

Larger rooms and easy airport access make this especially practical for arrival nights or families with a car.

A giant greenhouse, animals and broad lawns make this an easy half day when you want more than a standard park.

Watching horses race can be exciting for older kids, especially during family oriented event days.
