The no-fuss transport from Nice airport to town are the two express coach services , the 98 (to the bus station) and 99 (to the train station) Four euro, pay the driver on boarding.Taxi is quiote unnecessary.
Either bus will take you quickly to within a few hundredd yards of your hotel, which is within the centre of the town. Neither will actually drop you off outside your hotel, but the 99 has a slightly better route incoming in that it has a stop before the end of the line which is slightly closer. Consult the hotels location map to get the lie of the land.
Here is a useful link - you can enter the address and it gives you a street-view so you can "walk" from, say, the hotel to the road with the bus stop etc.

Can't help with the transport as we used the train and then walked - you've picked a great hotel there, we stayed for 4 nights in 07.
If you have only small luggage (if you have heavy luggage, the bus driver may or may not refuse you in the bus), take the free shuttle to P8 (http://www.nice.aeroport.fr/acces_stationnement_en/bus/navette.asp). From this same bus stop (it should be "Les Sagnes"), wait for the bus n° 10 (direction: Le Port - only 1€), which will drop you off near your hotel (get off at bus stop "Longchamp"). Keep in mind, that this isn't a direct bus and it might be crowded, so it might take you around 43 minutes to get to your hotel.
Ops, I meant, the bus driver from bus n° 10 may (or may not) refuse your entry, if you are carrying lots of luggage.
Nice is the queen of the Cote D' Azur. It is the main spot of French Riviera.
It was founded by Greeks. It was named Nikaia. Then there was Romans, and it is French since 1860. There are nice old buildings, charming cafes, stores and lot of people :) Take a walk arround Place Masséna, explore the streets and old part of the ton with no traffic, full of little stores. Experience the spirit of Nice.
Nice is an interesting town and is of course worth seeing. It depends on how many days you plan to stay in this city. If you stay more than 2 days, I recommend that you visit other cities nearby.
For instance, I highly recommend St Paul de Vence, even though it's pretty touristy. You would not be disapointed by this village's charm and beauty. My best friend lives in Ste Maxime, an hour from Nice. It is a city by the sea and I'm happy to enjoy the beaches which are far less crowded than St Tropez, Nice or Cannes. There are a lot of beaches along the coast.
One time, my best friend and I found this small sand beach and there was no one. It was so cool, we had the impression that we owned it !!
I WOULD SAY THAT THERE ARE MANY MUSEUMS....MATISSE/CHAGALL/MUSEUM OF MODERN ART..
BUT DON'T FORGET THAT THERE ARE MANY INTERESTING GALLERIES WHERE YOU CAN DISCOVER NEW ARTISTS..
I RECOMMEND IN THE OLD TOWN..AND GALERIE SAPONE.SITUATED BOULEVARD VICTOR HUGO
Don't know its proper name, if it has one, but what bloody fantastic way to fly.
Sort of one man parachute-assisted microlite with a small rear-mounted propellor and an upright pilot--seat.
He came sailing over the Chateau, virtually silent , in a gravity-defying slow glide, and gently rolled around the sky over the beach and out to sea. All in all must have been up in the air fifteen or more minutes. And I want to know where I can get one because I want one too. However I suspect this one was home-built.
Update April 2009: The church is currently covered in scaffolding whilst its exterior is renovated probably at the snails pace of French "work-schedules" ( arrive ten o'clock, kiss all workmates on the cheek, exchange pleasantaries make a few personal phone calls, by then its 12:00 time for two hour lunchbreak, put in a few token hours before knocking off for the day) - probably for the next year.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Seen from the Avenue Borriglione, this curiously shaped church is dedicated to Joan of Arc.
The design is controversial among local residents. It's called dismissively "the Meringue", reference to its white-ish color and puffy shape
The church was built in the late 1920's out of a relatively new material at the time - reinforced concrete. This allowed a multi--domed construction, creating a voluminous interior. The bell tower resembles a minaret calling the faithful to prayer.
Inside the church are paintings of Eugene Klementief - influenced by Russian Cubism and Orthodox icons.
It stands strangely at odds with the solid bourgeois and belle epoche styles around it, but entirely in keeping with Nice's tradition of eclectic eccentric architecture.
