Where to Stay in Menton, France
Are you wondering where to stay in Menton, France?
Menton just might be one of the most beautiful towns along the French Riviera.
This charming town with candy-colored buildings is located at the far end of the French Riviera, just a 10-minute drive from the border with Italy, which gives it a bit more of an Italian influence.
Not only is the town itself stunning, Menton has what I think are some of the best beaches too. Plage des Sablettes is right in front of the Old Town and has a great boardwalk stretching along the beach where you’ll find places to grab a bite to eat, shops, restrooms, and changing facilities (a rarity at many beaches!)
Plage du Casino and Plage du Borrigo are two more good beaches about a 15-minute walk away.
Best Hotels in Menton
So where should you stay in Menton? One thing to know about this town is that it doesn’t have any super-posh and ultra-luxurious five-star hotels. It’s not really that kind of French Riviera destination.
You’ll still find some nice hotels in Menton, but just nothing over-the-top. The benefit of this is that Menton is definitely one of the more affordable French Riviera towns you can stay in.
Most hotels in Menton are located about a 15-minute walk from the Old Town, closer to the train station.
Here are my top picks for where to stay in Menton, France:
- Best overall: Hôtel De Londres
- Best luxury hotel: Hôtel Riva Art & Spa
- Best on a budget: Hotel Parisien
And here’s a full breakdown of the best hotels in Menton.

Hôtel De Londres
Hôtel De Londres is the top-rated hotel in Menton and a great place to base yourself. This charming hotel is located just steps away from the beach, so you’ll enjoy proximity to the beautiful Mediterranean Sea.
The rooms at Hôtel De Londres are modern and comfortable with fun, colorful touches. Some of the rooms offer private balconies. This is an excellent place to stay in the heart of the town.
Hotel Napoléon
Another good place to stay in Menton is Hotel Napoléon. This hotel is on the quieter side of town, closer to the Old Town and the Plage des Sablettes. Personally, I like the location of this hotel a lot!
You are just a couple of minutes from the beach, and there’s also an outdoor swimming pool at this hotel. Guests will enjoy the airy, modern rooms, some of which have private balconies with sea views.
Hôtel Riva Art & Spa
Hôtel Riva Art & Spa is on the more luxurious end of what you’ll find in Menton, while still being reasonably priced. This four-star hotel is located on the waterfront just steps away from Plage du Borrigo.
You can book a variety of spa services at this hotel to indulge in some rest and relaxation. There is also an enclosed rooftop terrace with sun loungers and a hot tub that’s the perfect place to relax and unwind.
Hôtel Vendôme Menton
Hôtel Vendôme Menton is a very conveniently located hotel that is close to several beaches and just minutes away from the Old Town too. I think this is one of the most central locations to stay in.
Not only does it make a great base for exploring Menton, this hotel is a relaxing place to come back to at the end of the day, with comfortable rooms — some with sea views. You can also enjoy breakfast or a drink overlooking the Mediterranean here, or relax in the hotel’s waterfront garden with lounge chairs.
Hotel Parisien
Hotel Parisien is one of the more budget-friendly options in Menton, and it is still quite nice. This hotel is a little more basic, but it still offers comfortable rooms and a very convenient location.

Hôtel Miléade L’Orangeraie
Another option for where to stay in Menton is Hôtel Miléade L’Orangeraie. It’s not on the waterfront, but you’re less than 10 minutes of walking from several beaches and close to the Old Town.
The hotel itself is lovely and it is surrounded by beautiful gardens. There’s also a terraced bar where you can enjoy a drink. Breakfast is included each morning during your stay at this hotel, a nice perk.
