Hôtel Vacances Bleues Royal Westminster (Menton, France)

If you really want to make your stay extra special, pay a little extra and request a room with a sea view. You won't regret it!

The hotel is centrally located and near plenty of good restaurants. The rooms are nice, especially if you have a room with a view. Even if your room overlooks the road, you are still in good hands and the soundproofing is great. You will be surprised at the exceptional service and the level of cleanliness.

The breakfast is yummy. The variety is fine too with various types of coffee. Eggs, different jams, yoghurt, fruits, and more are included. Very satisfying and filling.

Though the rooms are lovely and the views make-up for anything it lacks, there is no minibar, no glasses, and the Wi-Fi is not reliable. It kind of places a dent in the attractiveness of the setting.

The primary dining area could do with a good paint job. In fact, in some areas the hotel is a bit shabby. For example, some of the chairs in the dining area are in need of repair.

The hotel lift is slow. If you are at the hotel during the high-season you are in for a long wait. This may seem minor, but if you have luggage and tired, and you simply want to get to your room and relax, this type of situation can be extremely annoying.
