My family planned to live in the hotel "Riviera Villefranche" for 2 days. But on our arrival we were not provided the room according to our booking form (no bay view, no French bed etc.) The owner of the hotel Antonio Parnetti was not polite and helpful with us and at the end of the conversation he said that he... more

Hotel Riviera was a pleasant surprise as we didn't expect much based on the price of other accommodation in Villefranche and this being the lower end. We paid 85 euro for the night for a double room inclusive of breakfast. The hotel is reasonably close to the train station (just walk the right way) to get there directly, so a... more

We stayed two nights in this hotel. It was in our Michelin Guide, and we had no reservation anywhere at 9 p.m. We just dropped in, and they gave us a choice of two rooms, and we took the cheapest. Only 60 euro per night. The staff was helpful and spoke good English. Our room was truly minimal, but we... more

I was a little frightened about what we might find on our arrival at this place...having read some of the reviews, I was prepared for the worst, which perhaps made us so happy when everything with our room went off without a hitch. We were placed into the ocean view room that we'd booked and LOVED our little balcony. The... more

Villefranche sur mer - a true gem. We stayed just 2 nights at Hotel Riviera. Hotel isn't fancy by any means, but worth the price. Friendly staff, nice simple breakfast. Room clean but nothing spectacular, but fab view from our little balcony. 5-10 min walk down to the harbour and beach. Quite a steep walk back. Nice restaurants near by... more

We found the Hotel very basic but clean. The hotel is situated between two busy roads and looks very grubby from the outside although continently placed for the 100 bus from Nice and the Tourist Information Office. We were not aware of any outside space, breakfast was served in a quite pleasant breakfast room. Plenty of pastries and fruit juices,... more

I would not recommend this hotel at all, unless you are simply looking for a place to crash. It is clean and safe, however. I booked through a French agency. Hotel Riviera did not answer any e-mails, and although i called to confirm my reservation, I did not get the room with a sea view that I booked. They don't... more

This was a really nice hotel in Villefranche sur mer. Bedroom was a good size, the bathroom was clean, but small (like most places in France). The view was very good - we asked for ocean view, we got it. It is a little bit of a hike to get to the hotel from the train station, so I would... more

My freind and I have just returned from our stay in this hotel. We booked it through Planigo and booked 2 double rooms with breakfast. Upon arrival at the hotel they told me they had only one double room booked and said the hotel was full. I showed them my paperwork of my booking which they said they had no... more
