We spent two nights in this delightful hotel. Our room had a balcony facing the yacht basis and Cap Ferrat and was very attractive if simple inside. The bathroom was new. We were on the fourth floor which was quieter and gave us a better view and good exercise walking up and down; there is no elevator. The breakfasts were... More

My friend and I stayed at this hotel for two nights after staying at a 5 start hotel in St. Tropez. I was a bit worried as to the standards of the hotel since it was a 2 start hotel, but the hotel was recommended to us. I have to say I was very impressed by this hotel. It is... More

The Hotel Darse is a decent value for customers who aren't looking for fancy arrangements. It's clean and comfortable, the hotel owner and staff are friendly and helpful and the continetal breakfast is wonderful (fresh, delicious croissants and pain aux raisins.) Unfortunately, our stay was marred by road work out front, which made it impossible to lounge on our balcony... More

We stayed here for 5 nights at the beginning of April 2013 and had a lovely time. The hotel is situated opposite the marina and next to the citadel. It's 5 minutes walk to the main area with the restaurants and beach area. I found the hotel to be a good base with very good housekeeping. The room was simple... More

We just stayed at this hotel and were pleased on how clean and well located this place is. It's a 10-minute walk to the old town & restaurants, and parking is available on the street. Our stay was pretty quiet, but we are traveling off season. Our room is small, true, but we only come to sleep...most of the day... More

We stayed at Hotel Darse for 7 nights in mid September. We enjoyed our stay and will definitely stay here again – great location, peaceful stay – a great value for VilleFranche for 76 Euros per couple. Location: Across from the old port and 5 mins walk to the port’s pebble beach, 5 mins walk to the old town full... More

After a less than pleasing hotel in Nice, Hotel Darse was a fantastic surprise! We booked 2 sea view, no balcony rooms (French window). Both seemed recently updated - clean linens, nice amenities (free wifi) and stunning views. This was the cheapest hotel on our trip and definitely our favorite. Staff was helpful, breakfast was the usual buffet (cereal, yogurt,... More

We have a flat in Villefranche which we rent to British holiday makers for much of the year. I visit regularly to deal with odds and ends so have stayed in most of the hotels in Villefranche. I used to stay mainly in the Welcome but when their prices rocketed I shot off elsewhere. The Darse used to be very... More

I have stayed in many hotels in Europe, and rarely a 2 star, so I could not believe our Beautiful room with a view was only a 2 star. The value is Amazing also!!! We are a family of 5, so we rented a room with a view as a double, and a garden view as a triple, and it... More
