Façade pieces, large pieces of the balcony falling off and on the patio. Weird barricades to block it. None of this was mentioned before the booking. Birds getting trapped in netting that surrounds of a balcony because it’s dilapidated. Weeds Growing out of the balcony. Hotel Refused to give me a partial refund. I had to help birds on many occasions get out of the nets surrounding the balcony. Stressful.

For such an upmarket hotel it was a little disappointing that there was no fridge in the room. Given its location, being able to store cool drinks in the room would be an advantage.
The ironing room needs to be upgraded. It was the size of a closet and the ironing board needed a new cover. If you’re not going to provide an iron and a board available in the room then an ironing room needs to be better.

Spotlessly clean rooms, modern with comfortable beds, excellent housekeeping. The street side is noisy of a night - not the hotels fault but be aware if you pick a room on that side. We found the breakfast to fine - small choice range but fresh and lovely view from the dinning room. Great central location.

Hotel Bleues le Balmoral was built in 1859, so it is an older hotel with many coats of paint and old wrought iron balconies. It faces the Mediterranean to the west and the beach road, so expect some traffic noise.
Not too fancy but the breakfast hall was excellent and well maintained. Beds were soft but comfortable, with lots of pillows and crisp white sheets. Fridges only available in the Deluxe chambres.
Thank you to the day manager, Sabrina, who was very friendly and went out of her way to make sure we were comfortable. French, English, and Italian are spoken at this hotel. Recommended for direct access to the beach, dining hall and location at the edge of \"old town\". SNCF regional train was a 10 minute walk. This hotel was very affordable. Merci beaucoup.

Impeccable. Hôtel très propre, nourriture bonne et variée au restaurant matin comme soir en demi-pension, personnel très avenant et diplomate et installations complètes. L’emplacement est génial à quelques minutes de la gare et adjacent au centre de Menton. Mention toute spéciale à la réceptionniste des soirs du 16 et du 17 octobre très sympathique et qui a toujours offert un service à la clientèle irréprochable. Supervisant moi-même dans l’hospitalité à la réception elle dispose de tout les atouts.

À tout cela s’ajoute la vue sur la mer; wow. Sur l’aile la plus rapprochée la vue est panoramique et j’ose dire qu’elle l’est tout autant dans l’aile principale.

Un incontournable dans la région et avec grand plaisir de revenir y séjourner.

Excellent stay with beautiful sea view from our room. The location is perfect with lots of restaurants around. Staff was courteous and willing to go the extra mile with our requests. Breakfast was basic - coffee with a view of the ocean was the perfect start to our day. I would definitely go back.

Hotel was in a brilliant location with exceptional views .However the rooms were a bit dated and although there were loads of outside areas and well tended gardens it lacked facilities to have a drink or light snack on the terrace. It seemed to cater for an older clientele. .although we are 70 we felt it lacked atmosphere and any entertainment. For such a beautiful hotel we felt it did not reach it.s full potential.

Lovely place, but no small touches

Beautiful hotel, well located, very comfortable beds, good sea view. Bit the hotel had absolutely none of the little touches that wouldn't cost much money - some tea/coffee making facilities in the room, a little bottle of water, some hair or body soaps etc. Yes there was a bottle of body wash screwed to the wall in the shower. But the room lacked any of those little touches that make you happy when you first open the door!

Avoid this hotel - badly out of date

An out-of-time hotel badly in need of renovating. Everything about it is cheap, from the mattresses to the soaps in the bathroom, the bedding and everything - very poor. A/C barely works and the shower is scolding hot then ice cold. The pricing is way too high for such a hotel. Location is good but I'd rather pay more for an Uber to the centre, or walk than to stay here again.

Cut my stay short due to illness, was glad to get out of the place, no refund given as I would expect from a poorly run and managed hotel.

Avoid this hotel.

Enjoyed our stay at this hotel. The staff are wonderful ! The property is well Maintained. Our room was clean, but could benefit from a little facelift. Beds and pillows very comfortable. The breakfast/restaurant gallery is a major bonus. Not only is the gallery beautiful with marble floors overlooking the water, selection was great. Served fresh scrambled eggs, sausage, pastries, deli meats, cheese, cereal, fruits, etc.
Fantastic location, beach, restaurants, shopping all at your doorstep.

I want to express my deep dissatisfaction with our recent stay at your hotel. Despite the ideal location, several factors significantly marred our experience.

First and foremost, the room's quality did not meet our expectations. It fell short of what we had hoped for, and we found it lacking in cleanliness.

Furthermore, we were appalled by the aggressive behavior of the housekeeper, who barged into our room at 11 a.m. without even knocking, despite the check-out time being 11:30 a.m. This situation was unpleasant and entirely unacceptable.

Additionally, I would like to acknowledge that the receptionist who welcomed us at 3 a.m. was very kind and understanding. However, we were deeply disappointed by the intervention of the front desk manager, Sabrine, who responded to our complaint with indifference and a blatant lack of respect. Her attempt to justify the housekeeper's behavior only aggravated the situation and discouraged us from considering future stays at your establishment.

While we understand that mistakes can happen, we hope that you will take our feedback seriously and implement measures to improve the quality of service and staff at your hotel.

In conclusion, we are profoundly disappointed with this experience and are not inclined to return to your hotel in the future. We hope that you will learn from this situation and strive to enhance the quality of your services

Choose your room

The hotel was comfortable however my single room with a sea view was more like a monks cell than a nice hotel room. One single bed pushed up against the wall and a desk on the other wall. No coffee making facilities or any other amenities.
The view from the balcony was great just over the road to the beach. Unfortunately the windows weren’t sound proofed so a bit noisy.
I’ve stayed here before and the room was much better so probably just bad luck I got that room.

Rude staff, poor hotel

From the outside the Balmoral looks a nice hotel, however, that’s where it ends!
Our room was tired, small and extremely dated!
The curtains let in most of the light from the hotel lights and we might as well slept with the lights on. Our room was at the front of the hotel with fantastic sea views from the balcony but come night time and again from 6am, the road in front was a moped racetrack, with the old windows letting all of the noise, making sleeping impossible!
The female member staff on checking out was the most miserable and rudest member of hotel staff that I’ve ever met! She clearly needs another career other than customer service!
Breakfast was also very poor!
My recommendation would be to stay clear of this place and look for something nicer with better staff elsewhere.

good value in great location ,excellent service.

I stayed 2 nights on business during a very busy period of MYS MONACO .
The room rate was commensurate with the room so I was not expecting luxury .
The mattress was poor and the en-suite shower small and a little dated ,but very clean and good for a short stay .
The clientele were elderly , and the staff were extremely accommodating and friendly .
Breakfast buffet was standard fare .
I managed to park outside pay and display , twice ,which was great for a quick get away in the morning .
There was a good restaurant next door .
Beach view looked good , but I had a side street room which was a fine as I was only their to sleep .
Nice outside garden .
Overall good location on the seafront , very good value for location and inclusive of breakfast .

The location is absolutely great as the annex rooms (where we stayed) have a balcony right on the waterfront boulevard, but there lies the only issue - noise. The street in front of the hotel is quite busy with trucks, scooters, etc. starting at about 6:00am. The french doors, although they are double paned, do a surprisingly bad job of insulating the noise. I'd suggest asking for a waterfront room in the main portion of the hotel, not the annex portion. Although it's farther from the water and the view is definitely not quite as dramatic, the distance should provide some welcome relief from the noise. IF view is more important than being able to sleep in past 6:00am (maybe you're an early riser and will welcome the built in alarm clock), make sure to ask for an annex room that's on the 1st floor (USA 2nd floor) as they have much bigger terraces (especially the westernmost two rooms - 119 and 120 I believe.)

Loved the location in the city center, just behind the beachfront and at one end of pedestrianized Rue Saint-Michel filled with shops, restaurants and cafes. The main beaches are just beyond, on the other end but still walking distance.

The property is dated -with no visible renovations- but it is clean and retains some charm. Our room had a small balcony with partial sea view, as there is a building blocking the view. There is no lounge, bar, or even a sofa at the entrance/lobby area.

The patio garden is attractive, faces the beach, and you can take your breakfast outside. It is a very basic breakfast buffet. This was a last minute booking and I still think it was a good value.

The hotel seems to cater to an older crowd. We loved Menton so much, charming and crowd-free, we decided not to cross the border into Italy and got to know the town a little better. It did not disappoint. Just wished we had booked that reservation at Mirazur!

Good choice for Menton hotel

We enjoyed our stay here. Our room was quite small but the view of the sea from the window more than made up for that. The hotel was originally a grand old Edwardian mansion and the breakfast room in particular is lovely. The location of the hotel is excellent; one entrance is on the sea side the other on a pedestrianised shopping street. We would stay here again, if we return to Menton.
