A must stop for anyone visiting Me ton, especially if you enjoy visiting churches. I stopped in to St. Michel Basilica as I was passing by on a self guided walking tour. The resin anting church bells beckoned me, so I went in. It was a Sunday morning and although I could not understand very well, the language of the service the opening hymn was a familiar tune. It was a blessing to visit; such a beautiful church!

Reviewed By ZahidMalti - London, United Kingdom
Pretty town with fabulous promenade to enjoy the warm sun, deep blue sea, light blue sky and stretches of golden sand. Given the location adjacent to Italy, Menton shares many similarities with the charming towns along the Italian Riviera down to Cinque Terre and beyond and yet a fraction of the tourists. The walk from Menton to Monte Carlo is not too strenuous and offer wonderful views. Easily accessible by train and bus from Nice and Monte Carlo. Definitely worth adding to list of French Riviera experiences.

A casino by the see On one side stand the orange trees, exotic flowerbeds and fountains of the Jardins de Biovès. On the other, the two-mile Baie du Soleil beach, an ideal setting for a Games paradise. Palm trees, archways and Art Deco architecture with Moorish influences will draw you in, and the large carved chessboard of the façade is echoed on the black and white lobby floor. The palatial entrance and baroque-style nightclub contrast with futuristic atmosphere and contemporary lighting. Casino Barrière Menton is good at shaking things up. Now it’s up to you to roll the dice. With Black Jack, English Roulette and Slot Machines, as well as terrace dining and drinking at the bar, there’s plenty to choose from.
