If you're overnighting in Eze (highly recommended to avoid the crowds and enjoy a quaint little village to yourself in the evening when they all filter out), this is one of the two best places to stay. As it's a mountainside village, getting help to get luggage up the steps is super useful. The patio which was open to guests only at the time to have breakfast has a beautiful view of Cote d'Azur right over Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat as the backdrop. The room we had was well equipped with a huge bathroom. The restaurant was unfortunately closed for a private event during our stay, but the front desk staff secured a last minute reservation at Chevre d'Or, which was also an excellent experience. Highly recommend staying here.
