Le Versailles

A 3 day stay at Hôtel Le Versailles for work in the local area was a welcome stop. It is easy to sniff at a 3 star hotel, but this place warrants its star, nothing more, nothing less. sat atop the Bd Princesse Grace de Monaco with panoramic views across the Villefranche bay. The bar and restaurant were closed during our stay and so a venture into the local eateries was needed. The rooms are basic but functional. The swimming pool located on the 4th floor is a good size and finding a lounger was easy enough. Breakfast is a simple but decent fayre, although additional options is €18. All in all a decent stay in a great location.

Gorgeous views from the room and balcony, an inviting pool with comfortable lounge chairs, friendly people at the front desk, and a delicious breakfast. What's not to like? Also, the bed was very comfortable, the bathroom was spacious, and there was plenty of storage space. The housekeeping staff did an excellent job of cleaning the room every day as well. In short, Le Versailles is a wonderful hotel, and we're already planning a return stay for next year! Tip: There's a #15 bus stop just across from the hotel which will take you to the Nice Port in ten minutes, and from there you can walk along the quay to the Cours Saleya in Nice's Old Town (getting the bus tickets is a bit tricky, though--it's best to buy them at the Nice train station or the airport).

The hotel has amazing views of the bay and their dining areas are great. Hotel is within walking distance of the local dining and shopping areas.

This is the second time for me to stay in this hotel, the last stay twenty years ago before the remodel. I liked the hotel then and like it even more now. What a beautiful place, with a lovely bar and restaurant, and a large pool where I could really get a swim. I will definitely stay here again.

Would definitely recommend this hotel Really lovely, friendly staff Beautiful views and a great location Just make sure you understand how to get the bus card Would be happy to recommend and return to this hotel

We had a fantastic stay! The room had two rooms and a large bathroom in between. It was clean, large and perfect for a family of four (7yr and 9yr old boy and girl). The pool was lovely with plenty of loungers and it is only a short walk into the centre of the village. Gorgeous view out over the bay and all the anchored Super Yachts. Pool menu was lovely and fresh- Greek Salad was delicious! Breakfast a bit over priced for what it was however.

I can see why the Hotel is 3 stars, rather than 4, however this Hotel is far better than most 4 stars. Firstly the staff are very friendly, I have never checked in so quickly. The Air Conditioning along with the Bathroom facilities were better than most 4 star Hotels. I would recommend taking the breakfast, it’s served to you, off a limited menu, but more than enough and it’s a lot more relaxing than a buffet. The Restaurant is not part of the Hotel, but again the staff made you more than welcome to sit on the terrace for a drink, you cannot charge to room though, but that’s not an issue.

Stay away. We arrived here for a 6 night stay in July and it has been awful from the beginning. We booked a triple room for our stay, the priciest option but needed the space for our family. When we arrived we were told “you’ve been upgraded!” It turns out that really they moved us to a smaller room with no air-conditioning (in the middle of July) located directly under the restaurant which is incredibly noisy until between 12-1am. The room they switched us to is not only smaller but lists for a cheaper price and no attempt was made to refund the difference. No attempt was made to fix the air conditioning either so my family slept with the windows open at night to try to cool the temperature as much as possible. Still, the temp at night in our room was between 80-90F/26-32C. When I continually asked what could be done the staff just shrugged their shoulders and said either “there’s nothing I can do” or “I don’t own the place.” We love the area - amazing place to visit. This hotel, however, is so bad and unhelpful it’s absurd. If it wasn’t the high season and we could have booked something else we would have. Some additional items in case they’re important to you: they advertise that laundry is available (for a fee) yet we were told that laundry is not available. They advertise WI-FI throughout but it really only works in a few spots. The place looks great on social media and their website but that’s just some good marketing. It’s poorly run, out of date and rundown, and absolutely unhelpful.

Lovely location and amazing view from our room. However the decor is pretty tited and it was fairly pricey. Although i do think that middle of july is peak season and therefore more expensive everywhere. Loved villefranche, it was so pretty and quaint.
