The best-rated hotels near Menton, according to travellers
Nestled between the Italian border and the azure Mediterranean, Menton is one of the most quietly elegant stops on the Côte d'Azur.

The hotels listed here have been filtered and ranked purely on real traveller ratings, so you can browse with confidence rather than guesswork.
The range on offer is genuinely wide.

Frequently asked questions
Which hotel near Menton has the highest traveller rating?+
The Maybourne Riviera in Roquebrune-Cap-Martin, located about 5.4 km from Menton, holds the top traveller score among the options currently available. It is a five-star property perched on the cliffs of the Côte d'Azur, and guest reviews consistently reflect an exceptional level of satisfaction. Bear in mind that its nightly rate places it firmly in the luxury segment.
Is there a well-rated hotel directly in Menton city centre?+
Yes. The Résidence Hôtelière Chambord is situated in the centre of Menton and carries one of the highest traveller scores on the list, making it a strong choice if you want to be within easy walking distance of the old town, the seafront promenade and the lemon-scented markets. As a three-star residence, it also represents a more accessible price point compared with the coastal five-star options.
Why do some highly rated hotels appear in Monaco rather than Menton itself?+
The Riviera is a compact coastal strip, and Monaco is only about 7 to 9 km from Menton. Several of the best-rated properties in the region, including the Hôtel Hermitage Monte-Carlo and the Hôtel Métropole Monte Carlo, are based in the principality. They are included here because travellers frequently compare them when planning a stay in this corner of the Riviera, and their real guest scores earn them a genuine place on any rating-based shortlist.
Does a higher star rating always mean a better traveller score in Menton?+
Not necessarily, and the hotels on this list illustrate that point well. The three-star Résidence Hôtelière Chambord in Menton scores higher with guests than several five-star properties elsewhere on the Riviera. Star ratings reflect official classification criteria such as room size and on-site facilities, whereas traveller scores capture the actual guest experience, including service, cleanliness and value. Looking at both together gives you a fuller picture before you book.
