It has a beautiful facade in the front, and the walkways from/to the train are relatively wide, letting a large group of people go in/out with their luggage. There didn't seem to be much inside, so you have to nearby restaurants for a bite to eat. For our outbound trip, we needed to catch a SNCF train to the nearest Italian town (Ventimiglia). We used our ticket to scan through the gate into the departure area, but was not used after that. The train runs every 30 minutes in the morning, and we caught the 7:50 train. The track doesn't get assigned until 30 minutes or so. There were no elevators with easy access, so needed to carry our bags using stairs. Track E ended up being our stop. The train came on time. It was a beautiful ride through the coast (so choose a seat to the right to see the sights). We arrived at Ventimiglia by 8:40, stopping at the following stations (Nice Riquier, Ville Franche Sur Mer, Beaulieu Sur Mer, Eze, Cap D'Ali, Monaco, Roquebrune Cap-Martin, Carnoles, Menton, Menton Garavan). It was open seating, and there were plenty of choices. There is no overhead racks for luggage, so had to store the luggage in the baggage racks in each car.

Beware of pickpockets…read more This station is very close to Nice Airport and is the best option if you need to take a train westward towards Cannes and Grasse or eastbound to Monaco and the Italian border. You can take a tram from the airport and get off at the tram station (Grand Arenas) across the street. The ride is free between the airport and that station. To reach Saint-Augustin Station, you do need to take the stairs or the lift to reach the area to buy tickets and the train platform. There is a ticket counter and a few ticket machines outside. The machines are a bit awkward to use as you need to turn the controls when making a selection. There are English instructions, but it is a bit difficult to change the setting so I would buy the tickets from the ticket counter if it is open. While the location is convenient, it is a notorious pickpocket location. My mom nearly was pickpocketed in the lift by a bunch of young girls. The lift was too full, which they used as a distraction for their treachery. It was a good lesson learned to be more careful with valuables, but it did start the trip in France on a bad note. Lastly, be aware that trains may arrive in the opposite direction if there is a track issue. Was headed to Ventimiglia, but ending up taking the train on the westbound platform due to this. Did not know what was up until I saw a large amount of passengers walking to the other side of the tracks. Though this led to a chaotic rush with heavy luggage in tow as the train was about to arrive. This station is a convenient location to take a train after arriving from the airport, but you need to be on guard when walking in the area and at the platform when waiting for your train.
