    Where to Stay in Menton: Best Areas & Hotels for Every Budget (2026)

    July 23, 2026 /

    I visited Menton on a day trip from Nice, so I didn’t spend the night there. But before my trip I looked into where to stay in Menton, the different areas, and after walking around the town for a few hours, I got a much better idea of where I’d stay if I came back.

It really comes down to the kind of trip you’re planning, whether you want to be right by the sea, in the middle of the action or somewhere a…

    I stayed in Nice while exploring the French Riviera, and from the beginning I knew I wanted to visit Menton. I’d seen photos of the colorful Old Town for years, and it looked exactly like the kind of place I’d love. It ended up being one of my favorite villages on the French Riviera. The best part?

    July 23, 2026 /

    If you’re planning to spend a few days in Menton, don’t just stay there the whole time. As much as I loved Menton, one of the best things about it is actually its location. You’re right on the French-Italian border, just minutes from Monaco and within easy reach of some of the most beautiful places on the French Riviera. Most of these day trips from Menton are incredibly easy to do by train, but you can also drive or book a guided tour if you’d rather not organize everything yourself. Whether you’re looking for glamorous Monaco, colorful villages like Èze, beautiful beaches or even a quick trip into Italy, there…
