Villa Genesis

The smallest room I have ever stayed in among all European hotels. There isn't even a hot water kettle. Extra charge for parking which should be waived considering there is no other facility that's available for guests, including a pool that's not functioning. Overall a very basic hotel not deserving of its asking price.

An excellent hotel in a great location. 2 mins walk to the beach and 10 mins walk to the old town. Everything about this hotel is of a high standard. The staff are polite, helpful and attentive. The pool is lovely and the breakfast is really varied and of a high quality. The building itself is fabulous with high ceilings and amazing chandeliers. I recommend a private transfer to and from the airport which can be organised by the hotel. It’s 120 euros but efficient and comfortable.

I was extremely happy with the accommodation and service at this charming stylish hotel in beautiful Menton, France during August 2025. The hotel is a 45-minute drive from the Nice airport and the hotel staff can arrange an airport transfer pick-up or drop-off for guests for a specified cost. The hotel is in a beautiful building which has been recently refinished and is very elegant. The rooms are clean, modern, attractive and comfortable. The hotel has a security gate on the street and the rooms each have a safe. The breakfast room and nearby small bar area are beautifully decorated. You must pay each time you eat at the buffet breakfast in the hotel but the food is delicious with some rotation of new items each day. Coffee drinks are made by the staff to your specifications. The pool area is very clean and pretty and very relaxing and it has a nearby toilet/shower area. The staff at Villa Genesis are all lovely people who are polite, friendly and helpful at all times. They really make you feel at home. It was fun to have a drink at the bar and chat with the staff member who was making the drinks. A big thank you for the wonderful service during our stay to Daniel, Hugo, Anne-Violaine, Chiara, Giselle, Thomas and all the others whose names we didn’t learn! We really enjoyed interacting with you all! The hotel is quiet because it’s not located on the main street along the beach, but it’s only a short walk away from the beach. I enjoyed the nearby Solenzara private beach facility. I also enjoyed taking a 10-minute Uber drive to the start of the 5 km (one way) Roquebrune-Cap-Martin coastal trail along the waterfront which ends at picturesque Plage du Buse which is a public beach with a little restaurant east of Menton in Roquebrune-Cap-Martin. I really enjoyed Menton’s main city area and the Old Town (30-minute walk) and if I visit this delightful city again, I would look forward to staying at the Villa Genesis Hotel once more.
