The Belles Rives can be found on the sun-kissed road of the Cap d’ Antibes, nestled in a cove by the water with the Lérins Islands and the Estérel mountains as a backdrop. The gentle frenzy of the Roaring Twenties is still felt here with a party atmosphere that is enhanced by an informal elegance. All the Riviera glamour is united in a place where charm, serenity and exclusivity go hand in hand.

I stayed at the beautiful Belles Rives for an extended stay prior to my son’s wedding held at the hotel. My stay and the wedding that followed were absolutely magical! The history of the gorgeous hotel, the breathtaking view, delightful climate, delicious food, outstanding service, and everything about the wedding and reception were spectacular! And it all wrapped-up with fireworks over the water! I highly recommend this hotel for a special event or just for R&R!

I was disappointed. Paid well over 1000 euros per night and was treated like an idiot. Booked sun beds- no booking found the next day. Lots of trouble. Continued during the stay. Complained about really bad service- no feedback. Prices are out of this world. One beer-17 euros. Will never ever go back. The arrogance is what upsets me the most. When you pay this much, you expect more. Booked a table for evenig party on the beach, offered a low low low table that no one could eat out of. Offered with a smile. My girlfriend said: are they mocking us? Will never return

I have huge affection for the Belles Rives having stayed and eaten there over the past 50+ years. But, as other reviewers have said, it's relying on past laurels, and this year in particular the service and food is letting the place down. We had lunch there today for the third time this summer, and for the third time it was extremely disappointing. The service was non-existent, they ran out of lots of the food choices, including not having any bread (!), and what food was served was either Luke-warm or cold, with chips being served on hot plates, but with cold chips - a clear sign that they'd been microwaved. We had to ask four people just to get a bottle of water, and were given 2 menus to share between six diners. When we finished our main courses, it took over 30 minutes for the staff to clear the table, and they didn't even complete this. Not acceptable for a eu100 per head restaurant. The worst bit was when we paid the bill and told our server that we thought the service today was the worst ever. He said sorry, and then asked if we wanted to give an extra tip!

. Lied to re check in time . The breakfast was included but you had to pay €12 for an omelette. A beach towel is €8 and chairs €75 for guests not just the public. The chairs are packed so tight you are on top of each other. The hotel is trading on its past glory

i really wanted to like it as I’m a huge Fitzgerald fan and I’ve wanted to go for years. Unfortunately it’s way overpriced and so you’re not getting enough for how much you’re paying. The hotel is pretty and nicely perfumed and the staff are very well meaning. However, the rooms are adequate but smaller than at many hotel chains. The one elevator is shared with the service staff so it takes forever and so you end up not even using it. There are a ton of people who buy day passes for the "beach" and that's really the better value. As a hotel guest, you pay almost the same price ~55-60+ euros + they charge you 8 euro / towel / day. (By contrast, I stayed at a hotel in a different town that rented it's guests beach towels for 3 euros for however long the stay was). Then you're paying for food at the beach and the minimum entree is ~35 euros. In your hotel room, there is a sign next to the minibar forbidding you from putting anything in, allegedly for hygenic reasons. I've never seen that at a hotel in my life and it just makes you feel like this is another way they're forcing you to pay for overpriced food. Turndown service was inconsistent and service was slow at the bar. Not a big deal, if you're paying reasonable prices but for what the rooms cost, unfortunately it's just not worth it.
