How can I get cheap hotels in French Riviera?

Best tips to find a cheap hotel in French Riviera

If you're looking to travel to French Riviera on a budget, you'll be happy to know that you can find hotels for as low as $81. Of course, that price is affected by amenities, star rating, and even the time of year you visit. At most, hotel prices can be as high as $174. Staying a short amount of time in French Riviera is an effective way to reduce hotel costs.
When you cut your vacation down to just a few days, you don't have to worry as much about hotel prices since you don't have that many nights to stay. For budget hotels in French Riviera, 3 to 4 days should be all the nights you need. That's generally enough to enjoy the city's top attractions, though there's certainly enough to do to warrant a week-long trip.
When booking cheap hotel rooms in French Riviera, it's typically best to book about 3 weeks in advance. Book further in advance than that and you could be paying too much for your room, as hotels will often overestimate future demand. However, if you wait too long, you might find that the hotel has been completely booked.
When you utilize search filters on Expedia, you'll be able to narrow down your results in a flash. These search filters cover a wide variety of factors you may be interested in when it comes to finding a cheap hotel in French Riviera, including amenities such as Free Breakfast, 2-star rating, or proximity to local attractions. You can even set filters for price limits to ensure that all the displayed results are within your budget.

Top French Riviera Hotel Reviews

Mercure Nice Promenade Des Anglais

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing hotel in an incredible location (Promenade Anglais, directly in front of the water) with reasonable rates. We stayed in a room that had a garden view and partial water view, which was well worth it. The interior was clean, modern, and spacious (for Europe) with great AC. The best part, however, are the staff. Dorothee in particular offers outstanding local recommendations for bars, beaches, and restaurants. She is the best! Adrian is also very kind and helpful—he will call local places for you if your French is rudimentary. We highly recommend this hotel and look forward to our next visit!"

Hôtel La Villa Nice Victor Hugo

8/10 Good

"A generally well kept boutique hotel that does the basics well. Room was spacious and clean. We were happy with the location as it was only about a 10 minute walk to the beach promenade and close to transportation and restaurants while still feeling like we were away from tourist crowd. Air con works very well while breakfast was ok but overpriced. You don't really have much to do with staff. Would stay here again."

Hotel Beau Rivage

10/10 Excellent

"Such a great location. Highly recommend if you need a place in Nice."

Fairmont Monte Carlo

10/10 Excellent

"Simply the best"

Albert 1'er Hotel Nice, France

8/10 Good

"Bad!"
