Cool, charming or romantic hotels in Nice, Eze, Menton area?
Hello,
I've just decided to spend a few days on the Eastern Riviera with an old amour (and by old, I mean previous, not ancient). Can anyone suggest what to do with 3-4 days there during the first week of January (brrr!)? We'd like to find a cool/charming/romantic hotel or two (in Nice, Eze, Villafranche,or Menton) at around 200 euros. Would anyone like to make a suggestion? Thanks!

We are just back from a week in Nice and I'd recommend staying in Nice and perhaps doing a day trip to Eze or Menton. There are lots of places that are close by, you can get the bus or train. There is a lot to do in Nice and loads of shops and restaurants. We stayed in an apartment, not sure you'd want that for just a few days. If you are interested, here is the website www.nicepebbles.com

Babette - just a thought about getting to Eze if you end up going (we didn't have time, maybe on our next trip!). The train stops at Eze but the station is right at the bottom, near the sea. Eze village is about 1000 steps uphill. There is a path or a bus will take you up there. If you catch a bus from Nice, the bus will drop you right at Eze village, at the top. The tourist office will give you a timetable and the correct bus number.

I'll second the Windsor Hotel in Nice. We stayed there about 10 years ago. It is charming and as I remember has a nice garden. I like Nice as a base for the Riviera, in general, but it would be nice to stay in Eze village sometime too...
I would visit St. Paul-de-Vence and the open air museum at Fondacion Maeght
