“Cannot fault our stay at the Prince De Galles Menton. The room was beautifully presented and clean with an amazing view over the sea. Staff on reception and at breakfast are very helpful and polite and really make the experience at the hotel great. Will definitely be returning in the future and it is a perfect hotel to stay at if you are visiting the south of France and places like nearby Monaco. Thanks for a perfect holiday.”

“Our stay was made truly memorable thanks to Elodie at the reception. From the very first moment she welcomed us with genuine warmth, and throughout our stay she remained consistently professional, attentive and most importantly solution-oriented. Whatever we needed, she handled it with a smile and made everything feel effortless. It is rare to meet someone who combines kindness and efficiency so naturally. Elodie is a real asset to this hotel and the reason we will absolutely come back. Thank you!”

“Absolutely wonderful — will definitely be back! What a fantastic stay! We had a room with a sea view and it was absolutely breathtaking waking up to that view every morning made the whole trip feel extra special. The staff were incredibly warm and attentive, always going out of their way to help with anything we needed. You could really feel that they genuinely cared about making your stay as comfortable as possible. Everything about this place was top notch the room, the service, the location. Honestly one of the best hotel experiences I’ve had in a long time. I will 100% be coming back on my next visit. Highly recommend!”

“Compact hotel on the seafront in Menton exceeded expectations. Beach (stony) just across thexroad, few minutes walk along the promenade to town centre with numerous restaurants if not availing of Hotel restaurant. Elegant contemporary (if typically french small) rooms, good aircon and compact bathroom. Complementary mini-bar (water, juices, Coke, Sprite savoury nibbles and even a beer) and lobby refreshments during the day an excellent gesture, surprising and much appreciated. Gym with 2x treadmills, weights machine, free weights, towels, complimentary drinks. Both private & on-street parking available (paying). Public transport runs by the door too. We only stayed the one night at end of our trip but it was very pleasant stay.”

“I very much enjoyed our stay here when we visited Menton. The rooms were comfy and views were incredible. Reception was warm and welcoming! I enjoyed the lemon water available in the lobby as well as the cakes provided in the evening. It was a bit of a walk to Menton, but was not an issue.”

“I had the pleasure of staying at the Prince of Wales hotel for one night, and it exceeded expectations in every aspect. The property is beautifully designed, showcasing a refined sense of décor that creates a welcoming and elegant atmosphere. What truly sets this hotel apart, however, is the impeccable attention to detail and the exceptional service provided by the staff—friendly, attentive, and consistently professional throughout my stay. The room was spotless and thoughtfully appointed, offering a high level of comfort. A special mention goes to the bath towels, which were of outstanding quality and added a touch of luxury. Breakfast was well-prepared, offering a generous variety of options to suit all tastes. Overall, this experience was nothing short of delightful, and I would not hesitate to return in the future. Sincere thanks to the entire team for making my stay both pleasant and memorable.”
