Where refined Mediterranean panoramas and historic romance converge in Saint‑Jean‑Cap‑Ferrat.
Hotel Overview
Nestled atop Cap‑Ferrat peninsula, Hotel Royal‑Riviera is a Florentine Renaissance-style villa dating from 1880, painted in elegant pink and cream. It occupies a gentle slope above manicured Provençal gardens that cascade toward a private sandy beach. With 96 rooms and suites—including 18 in the Orangerie villa—most offer sea or garden views framed by Marronier trees. The décor evokes period charm with modern comfort—soft linens, pale woods and hand-painted tiles.
The Facilities at a Glance
Facilities include a heated outdoor pool framed by manicured lawns, private beach access with water‑sports partners, and a wellness centre offering Thalgo marine treatments. La Table du Royal restaurant serves contemporary Mediterranean cuisine under shaded verandas. Guests may also enjoy the lounge bar with terrazzo floors and cozy seating. Valet and parking are provided; rooms include Nespresso, plush bathrobes and personalized in-room amenities for quiet elegance.
Our Personal Recommendations
We suggest beginning the day with breakfast in the garden terrace as sailboats drift into view. Choose a Sea‑and‑Garden Suite for morning light filtered through palms. After lunch, stroll the shaded gardens down to the private beach, perhaps take a paddleboard. Order dinner by moonlight at La Table du Royal, followed by a digestif in the bar. This is Cap‑Ferrat grace at rest—a place where romance and rest collide gently by the sea.
