Hotel Royal-Riviera in Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat, open June–September.
Perched on the French Riviera's most coveted peninsula, Hotel Royal-Riviera commands sweeping Mediterranean views from its clifftop position in Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat.
Floor-to-ceiling windows frame azure waters and dramatic coastal rock formations, while manicured gardens cascade toward private beach access.
This Belle Époque property delivers refined elegance across 53 rooms, with celebration spaces ranging from intimate garden terraces to grand ballrooms.
The heated pool, the location right by the beach, the beautiful rooms, the views over the Med and the cap - all of this is very much le top. But I’ve never quite had such an experience (in over ten years living in France) with the hotel staff. Welcoming, kind, warm, supremely competent and just all round excellent - there are quite a few fancy places in Paris that could take lessons from these guys. We hope to be back, un grand merci !
