Hotels in French Riviera, France

The French Riviera stretches along the Mediterranean coast of southeastern France, famous for its glamorous resorts like Nice and Cannes. With over 300 days of sunshine a year, summers are hot and perfect for swimming at Pampelonne Beach near Saint-Tropez, while mild winters let you hike the jagged limestone cliffs of the Calanques near Marseille. Don't miss the modern art at the Fondation Maeght in Saint-Paul-de-Vence, or the Tuesday morning flower market in Nice's Cours Saleya-best visited in spring when temperatures hover around 70°F (21°C) and crowds are thinner.
