The location is magic. The cleanliness is excellent. The staff are indifferent with booking details, and the service in the bar is tardy but overall it’s a nice place to stay.
Great, walkable location with ocean front rooms. Friendly staff. Connected restaurant/bar. Very close to the Villefranche train station. Only downsides - the air conditioning in the room was weak and it was a little noisy at night since the location is so central
The balconies and the views are amazing. This hotel is such a delight - I would absolutely return and recommend to friends and family. As a solo traveller I felt very safe, which is always important.
This hotel is amazing. It’s in a great location and the staff are helpful and friendly. The view of the water from our balcony was amazing and a great place to have coffee in the morning and a nightcap in the evening. Highly recommend!
Amazing attention to detail and service from hotel staff. Beautiful historic hotel with the very best view and great amenities.
Cannot wait to return!
Also love the turndown chocolates from Florian - a local gem!
A perfect spot to stay in Ville Franche Sur Mer! The ideal spot for a little shopping, going to the beach and watching all of the boats and yachts in the bay. The hotel is absolutely beautiful and we loved our suite with balcony overlooking the water. 5 minutes walk from the train station. The only hotel on the water in this beautiful little town!
This is a good hotel with very well trained courteous staff. The seafront location us attractive and convenient to appreciate Villefranche.
There us no swimming pool at the hotel and the beach facilities in Villefranche are limited.
I have nothing but amazing things to say about this property. Location, location, location! But also, the service was A from the check-in team, to the baggage handlers to the restaurant staff. I maintain that the breakfast was the BEST French breakfast I have ever had! We will be back!
Welcome Hotel is the best-kept secret of the French Riviera. It lies in the corner of a little resort-like area at one of Villefranche-sur-mer. Tons of places to eat, train stop nearby, super quiet rooms, amazing breakfast buffet, extra comfy beds, incredible views of the harbor, air conditioning, and incredible staff. What a dream. Can't wait to return to this romantic getaway someday...
