Best Western Plus Hôtel La Marina in Saint-Raphaël, open June–September.
Perched directly on the Côte d'Azur coastline, Best Western Plus Hôtel La Marina commands sweeping views of the Mediterranean Sea and the Bay of Saint-Raphaël from its waterfront position at Place de la Marina.
The hotel's 4-story structure rises above the bustling port, offering unobstructed sightlines across azure waters and rocky coves that define this Provence coastal landscape.
Modern amenities meet seaside charm in a setting where guests can hear waves lapping against the shoreline throughout their celebration.
A clean and nice hotel in a cool location by the harbour. The hotel doesn't have much of a soul but there isn't much to complain about. Our second stay there. The swimming pool can get quite cool in autumn but it's nice and rather large. Be aware that when the wind blows the sailboats in the harbour turn into whistling sirens and can get quite loud but it allows you imagining spending a night out in the sea without beeing sea sick! 😃
