We stayed for 1 night and found it to be great. This is a modern if a little basic hotel with everything you need. Spotless and reasonably priced given the location. The restaurant on the side was superb, had we stayed longer we would have eaten there every night. One big advantage, the road outside, directly on the waterfront has... More

Situated right on the French Riviera just a 10 minute drive from either Monaco to the west of San Remo, Italy to the east. Nice is right down the road just 10 min. past Monaco.

We spent one night here on the 4th leg of our 6-week self-drive European vacation. The hotel was exactly as described on their website. The room was a little on the small side, but we had 2 chairs on the balcony overlooking the Mediterranean Sea. What more could you ask! We arrived on a Sunday evening and were hard pressed... More

This is a very nice hotel and the staff are very helpful. Buffet breakfasts are great value for money, and the restaurant is good too. The room we had was a "superior". We found it a little cramped but the small balcony was a bonus. The bed was comfortable and bedding excellent cotton, but the duvet and pillows were filled... More

Was working in Monaco but the Principality was packed due to a professional fair taking place there. So a room was booked for me at the Prince de Galles, a nice hotel located at the entrance of Menton (coming from Monaco). It is about 20 minutes walking distance from Menton Old Town (I was said, didn't try), and 20 minutes... More

BW Prince de Galles is a spotless hotel located in Menton. Reception is English speaking and very kind. Room and bathroom is absolutely clean, and I had a lovely view from my beachfront room. You do however have a road between you and the hotel, but that was no problem to me. Parking is right in front of the hotel... More

This hotel on the sea front at Menton has a perfect location. Staff were very helpful and friendly. Restaurant was excellent - both food and value. Unfortunately some negative points. The busy road runs between the hotel and the beach and is very noisy (one would think they could re-route this traffice. Also, the room - although a superior room... More

The first time we visited Menton we stayed near the Italian border, the second time was in the old town and this time it was near the start of Rocquebrune Cap Martin.
