Standing tall on the seafront, the Napoléon is Menton’s most stylish sleeping option. Everything from the pool to the restaurant-bar and the back garden (a haven of freshness in summer) has been beautifully designed. Rooms are decked out in white and blue, with Cocteau drawings on headboards. Sea-facing rooms have balconies but are a little noisier because of the traffic.
The two top-floor suites with sea views are sensational, with floor-to-ceiling windows, larger balconies and great views from the bathtub!
