Okay, I cannot recommend this hotel enough. We travelled as a family of 4 with two boys aged 6 and 10.

We were due to fly and stay in the Eza Vista for the first two nights of our two week holiday. Unfortunately, our flight was cancelled as we were flying on 10th August. Instead, we decided to drive to the hotel from Cambridge UK. We drove non-stop and arrived at the hotel at 4am. The staff had arranged for our key and information to be put in a safe outside of the hotel and had explained how we should enter the hotel prior to our arrival. When we arrived, everything was in place and we quickly accessed our suite without any difficulties.

The suite was amazing! It was absolutely gigantic. We had requested a two roomed suite but in truth, I think we could have gone for a smaller suite. I would say that our accommodation was as large as a small 2 bedroom house! Everything was brand new, the facilies were incredible and we even had a patio area with small garden for the children to run around on. The view was breathtaking and overlooked the sea in the distance (unfortunately too far to walk to!).

The staff spoke fluent English and gave us the most detailed information and even drew a pen line round the route of the Monaco Grandprix circuit so my husband could do his 'boy' thing. They advised on good restaurants and were always available with a smile!

On reading other reviews, I thought this would be a quiet,almost dull location but there was stacks to do. The bakers shop was RIGHT next door and you could sit outside and people watch. Opposite the bakers was a Tabac which sold English/US papers and next door to that was a general store. There are many other small shops in the main town and if you walk up to the castle (which is only just around the corner from the bakers) there are lots of tiny individual shops that wind up the steep hill.

There were also more restuarants than I thought and although the town does quiten down by 10.30/11pm, the restuarants are doing great business earlier in the evening. We had a fabulous meal on the main square.

Back to the hotel. I have to say that the pool area is very cutting edge and although the pool is not large, it is beautifully designed. I was also quite amazed by the design of the hotel and the use of glass instead of walls to the public areas. This really is an amazingly designed hotel and not your average accommodation.

Okay, I have typed this very quickly but all I really wanted to get across is that the hotel is in the middle of things for the town and there is no need to walk far to anything. The local facilities are good, the restaurants are bustling early evening and Eze has a great vibe. I just wished we could have stayed there longer!

If you do stay for any longer than a couple of days, you will need a car as Eze stands alone and I got a vibe that the public transport system is not good in Eze and the connecting roads to Eze are not the sort you would want to walk along!

Only suggestions I can make is that I wouldn't do breakfast at the hotel but instead use the bakery next door, it is far more authentic and 'French' (and of course, cheaper!). The room only had BBC World for UK viewing and there is no DVD player, although my kids enjoyed watching French cartoons! Also, I would suggest if you are a coffee lover (like us!) grab some milk and coffee for the morning from the little shop so you can have a cup when you wake up. I could not find away of getting a coffee without purchasing the full breakfast.

Eze is beautiful, very French and the people are gorgeous. A perfect hotel in a perfect location! Thanks to the other Trip Advisors who told me about this magical place. xxx

Our family of four had the good fortune to stay four nights at the lovely Residence Eza Vista apartment hotel in July 2006. The hotel is only 2 months old, so everything in it is brand new, sparkling clean, immaculate. Air conditioning and wi-fi worked beautifully. Perfect set-up for families, or those who value a frige and microwave to prepare snacks and light meals in the room. The pool is completed now, and it is small but lovely. The pictures on the hotel website do not do it justice. We stayed in the unit with fully equipped kitchen, living room with flat screen TV, two bedrooms, 1 and 1/3 bath (second toilet), and huge terrace facing the sea. I believe they call this the cabine bedroom for the children...in the U.S. we call it a trundle bed, as there are 2 twin beds. Eze village sits high in the hills, 20 minutes east of Nice, and 10 minutes west of Monaco, so the sea is viewed at a distance, but lovely nonetheless.

I cannot say enough good things about this apartment hotel. Wish we had 2 weeks to spend at the Residence Eza Vista, as the area around Eze is just lovely. Not the crush and traffic of Nice or Monte Carlo, but well situated to take side trips during the day.

There are a few shops and restaurants close by. Don't miss the tour of the Fragonard parfumerie, which is just down the hill from the hotel. If you tour Monday-Friday, you can see the production line making the fragrant soaps and shampoos, although they give tours 7 days a week. Mention you are staying at the Residence Eza Vista and they will give you 10% off your purchase.

Also, there is a tiny little house/farm between the hotel and the parfumerie, and the owner has 2 adorable donkeys that like to walk around the village streets nibbling fresh figs off the trees. Don't worry, they are harmless, tethered, and odor-free.

Do not miss the Villa Ephrussi de Rothschild villa and gardens in nearby St. Jean Cap Ferrat - the gardens and the views are stunning.

While there is no restaurant or bar on premises, this apartment hotel was perfect for our needs. They also have underground, secure parking at 10 euros/day.

I booked the Residence Eza Vista on [--] for an addition discount. At 148 Euros per night, this was the nicest place we stayed and best value for money during our 3 week visit to France and Italy. Get there soon before the rest of the world finds out about it.

We stayed at this hotel over Grand Prix weekend May 2006. Hotel only opened a few weeks ago, so a few things not yet fully operational- Pool terrace needs completion only partly in use but will be lovely, relatively small but with beautiful views to the sea and the lovely hillside village of Eze. There is also a terrace with tables and chairs again with full sea view.
This is as apartment hotel providing continental breakfast on request, although just bread croissants and preserves, fruit juice, tea and coffee. No evidence of Bar at this stage!! No restaurant.
Apartments are very spacious, contemporary furnished and all with balconies/ terraces with sea views. We have a four year old so ideal having full kitchen facilities and seperate bedrooms.
Parking is provided in underground car park 10 euros per night.
We found this hotel excellent value for money particularly being so close to Monte Carlo 10 minutes by car, and the other lovely resorts of the French Riviera.
There is a supermarket just across the road, a lovely patisserie right next door, and a pharmacy just across the road so everything just a few steps away.
The lovely village square is a couple of minutes walk and there are a few bars/restaurants here.
All in all a lovely place and would highly recommend it to anyone.
