I truly enjoyed my stay at the hotel. The location was superb, just across the road from the sea shore and a short walk from the center, offering a quieter atmosphere in the evenings.

Rooms

The room we stayed in had a fantastic sea view, and the large bath and separate shower were luxurious touches. Although the room showed some signs of age, likely due to high turnover in this touristy area, it was still comfortable and spacious.

The hotel's location is ideal, especially for Monaco F1 enthusiasts as it is built around the race track. It's also conveniently located near the train station, but the 15-minute walk can feel long after a day of shopping. The small, pebble beach across the road was a nice touch for beach lovers.

I had a delightful stay at this hotel. The rooms were really nice, featuring separate toilets, window shutters, and coffee-making facilities, which are rare finds in French hotels. Moreover, the rooms come with a balcony, adding to the overall comfort. However, the location was a bit far from the center for my liking, making the 15-minute walk after a day of shopping somewhat tiring. The service was top-notch, with friendly yet professional staff who were always ready to assist. As for the dining experience, although the breakfast was sub-par, the option to have breakfast on my private balcony overlooking the Mediterranean was a true highlight. Additionally, the proximity to the beach and the amenities offered on-site were definite positives, but it came at a price that caused slight stress at the end of an otherwise enjoyable stay.
