Welcome Hotel

Publishes its own dog guide, from in-room kit to which local coves allow dogs

This hotel is part of the Daisy Curated Collection. Its information has been researched and verified, but Daisy has not yet personally stayed here. When she does, this page will be upgraded to a full Daisy Verified inspection.

Daisy's Assessment
Researched and verified. Not yet personally stayed.
A tall ochre former convent on the quay in Villefranche old town, with balconies over the fishing boats and the Wine Pier bar at water level. Jean Cocteau stayed here and painted the chapel across the quay, and the hotel still runs as a family business rather than a group property. It is the one hotel on this coast that has written and published a dog document of its own, covering what is waiting in the room, what can be borrowed, which beaches nearby take dogs and a local dog sitter's number. For a dog traveller that is a different level of preparation from a line in the terms and conditions.

Why it's in the collection

The Plage de l'Ange Gardien, the last cove at the eastern end of the bay, takes dogs and is reached by a footpath, and the hotel names it in its own guide. The Tour du Cap de Nice walk starts from the same quay and the Cap Ferrat loop is one bay away.

Dogs are welcome in the rooms and the hotel asks you to flag them at the time of booking. There is no hotel restaurant, and room service arrives from partner restaurants on the quay, so most meals happen outside on the waterfront where tables are in the open air. Breakfast is served in the conservatory or in the room.

Where we can't yet confirm a detail first-hand, we mark it plainly rather than guess. A Daisy stay will close every gap.
