This is a lovely small hotel, with modern rooms, good aircon, great service. Lovely breakfast (€16 pp per day) great choice. Staff lovely. Food can be ordered via bar staff for lunch/snacks. Cost is similar to cafes for lunch. Mini fridge is stocked with water and a few soft drinks. A lot of people have mentioned there is a supermarket across the road for drinks/snacks/lunch and toiletries etc. This has been very helpful to us, as South of France is £££ and we couldn’t afford to pay for lunch and dinner at a restaurant every day (3 adults, one teen). This hotel is an excellent stay for sightseeing. Train station is 15 min walk. We have been to Monte Carlo, Cannes, Ventimiglia and Eze by train. Next 2 stops will be Nice and Antibes. Trains v busy but after a while you can get a seat. Aircon on trains. You need your passport on trains as police will ask (border town). 20 min walk along La Sablettes beach into town centre. You can also walk up steps into the old town which is so pretty and the church is up there. Many restaurants are available along La Sablettes and town. Beach restaurants are £££ so we only ordered one course each and some sides. They are great for a quick meal after a sightseeing day , as your feet will be tired! Can recommend Caesar on beach front. Trattoria in the business district is great food and more high end, about a 30 min walk. The restaurants on Victoria Square (main tourist area) in Menton are very busy and in one restaurant it took two hours to get food (1 hour to order it!). Saturday night is very busy, lots of places pre-booked. Main problem is (small) pool area. We only wanted to use it on rest days. Around 12/13 sun beds and hotel is now at capacity, it is absolutely packed. People putting towels on the floor and sitting on bar chairs. People reserving sun beds from very early am. Pool area over-capacity. Clearly some groups do not ever leave the hotel, but it really doesn’t have capacity for a ‘fly and flop’ type holiday. So pool a bit defunct for us, which is a shame on rest days. Also the hotel is next to a busy road and you can smell the car fumes by the pool. I had to take my asthma inhaler on the one day we achieved sun beds by the pool. You can pay €35 pp per day to join a private beach club on the beach. This is exclusive of food! We are here to sightsee so didn’t bother with this. This is a beautiful, clean, well-serviced hotel with lovely staff and great service. But if pool time on your rest days it’s important to you, you may find it difficult to achieve this.
Je voulais réserver deux chambres peut être trois, pour Février 2025 du 21 au 1er mars en passant par internet, mais impossible d'aller plus loin que le nombre de chambre et le nombre de personnes je ne comprends pas, dommage nous avions bien apprécié, quand nous sommes venus la proximité de cette établissement des animations de la fête du citron. en plus vous demandez la date de notre dernière venue i n'y a qu'une année complète sur votre proposition..............
Had to stay in Menton for a night due to Italian railway strike. Best diversion ever. Not only is the town itself wonderful but this hotel was a real find. Clean, great facilities for travelers and in an ideal location. The breakfast had a large choice and was all very fresh. The little lobby area offers fresh lemonade which is a refreshing option after a day in the sun. What made this hotel five rated for us was the terrific, helpful staff who understood our predicament and went out their way to make our short stay as comfortable as possible. As a result, we hope to visit Menton again in the future so we can spend more time there. We will hopefully manage to book this excellent hotel.
10 minuti a piedi dalla stazione, moquette a terra, terrazza con vista non bella, stanza fredda ma con clima funzionante. Viaggiato a gennaio, forse in un altro periodo é migliore. Colazione europea soddisfacente dalle 6 alle 10am
Riva Art & Spa is a beautiful seaside hotel with spacious balconies that offer a peaceful place to relax while enjoying breathtaking Mediterranean and mountain views. The balconies have comfortable seating, making them the perfect spot to enjoy a leisurely morning, sipping coffee and watching the sunrise.

Amenities such as TV channels, Wi-Fi, and air conditioning further enhance the guest experience. The bathrooms are impeccably clean and stocked with a good variety of toiletries, adding to the overall comfort. The hotel staff is wonderful—attentive, helpful, and friendly. We enjoyed a delicious and varied buffet breakfast. The hotel also features a rooftop spa with an incredible view of the Mediterranean. The spa offers a range of rejuvenating treatments and massages, providing a truly relaxing experience while listening to the sound of the waves and seagulls. Additionally, the hotel is conveniently located near many excellent restaurants offering a variety of gastronomic delights.
This beautiful boutique 4* hotel is perfectly located steps from the sea but away from the hussle and bustle of the tourists in the village and harbour area. There are very few hotels right in the sea front and of those this is the only perfect one! This hotel in the last 4 years has become my little oasis, my escape from Paris, home away from home when I need to relax, disconnect, and recharge. Everything at Princess & Richmond is Excellent all across the board! Spectacular views, perfect balcony, Very modern rooms, wonderful stall shower, the bed is so comfortable, and the room size is just right. Listening to the sea crash against the rocks just rocks you to sleep. The sunrises over Italy and sunsets in front o the beach are breathtaking. The room is Impeccably decorated and clean and very well serviced. Room service breakfast and snacks is very appreciated! The rooftop solarium and jacuzzi with 360 views from the mountains to the sea are breathtaking and memorising. Perfect. Even the recently redone reception is just gorgeous. The staff are so very friendly helpful and full of recommendations and information. Just lovely. Staff incredibly at your disposition with every question or request. Just lovely. The only thing lacking here is: No restaurant to eat directly at the hotel or order room service after 7pm but snacks for room service are excellent and little cute restaurants next door for a quick bit were very good!!! Only Recommend: adding more non-gluten options to room service breakfast menu and extra big coffee cups in the room ( the Nespresso cups are too small). When staying in Menton this is the only hotel to be at! I 100% without a doubt, without hesitation recommend the Hotel Princess & Richmond.
Good location in stunning Menton. Lovely female staff: Delphine & Zohra - basic but very clean & quiet rooms: 322, 323 (unless your neighbours are noisy) Comfortable beds, good pillows, hot water showers (tiny but manageable if you’re pedantic with the shower curtain 😂 excellent coffee, (sink plugs don’t work) (My cousin and I liked the Richelieu - my Aunt not so much! - so after first night in Richelieu my Aunt changed to the gorgeous Hôtel Miléade L’orangeraie - in a lovely room with a balcony - amazing view, with a bath, same street opposite side, identical Price)
RRobert MOverall a very pleasant experience, staff were very accommodating & helpful. Half board, meals good, although if I was being over critical some of the vegetables were slightly over cooked on some dishes but that’s really the only minor ******.
PPirate811A charming small hotel near Menton station run by a brother and sister who are extremely helpful and friendly. Has a lovely garden -- guess what the trees are.....-- which is a pleasure to sit in and relax and you can even have breakfast out there. Breakfast is delicious all local products. The room, I had at least, was spacious and the bed comfortable with a lovely view of the garden. Very pleasant experience and a decent price to boot. Would highly recommend it.
