The French Riviera Travel Guide
A trip to the French Riviera Travel can mean glitz, glam and gambling, iconic beach moments or wandering around medieval villages soaking up the local culture along with the Mediterranean sun. It can also mean a stay in a grand hotel or a boutique lodging. A boutique hotel offers luxury and service, but with a more personal attitude in smaller surroundings that usually have lots of personality.Le Saint Paul, in the medieval village of Saint-Paul-de-Vence, 10 miles from the Nice airport, is housed in a 16th-century stone building that was renovated in 2008. Its 16 guest rooms and suites are decorated in updated French style, and each room includes a private bath. This quaint hotel offers two dining rooms, one with a vaulted and frescoed ceiling, the other centered around a fountain. In pleasant weather, meals are served on the stone terrace. Located between Cannes and Monaco, Le Saint Paul offers a convenient location in the quiet of a village. The hotel can arrange shuttles from the train station or airport in Nice.

The French Riviera Travel Guide
With the Alps playing bodyguard against inland winds and the sultry Mediterranean warming the breezes, the Cote d'Azur, or French Riviera, is pampered by a nearly tropical climate. This is where the dreamland of azure waters and indigo sky begins, where balustraded white villas edge the blue horizon, evening air is perfumed with jasmine and mimosa, and parasol pines silhouette against sunsets of ripe apricot and gold. As emblematic as the sheet-music cover for a Jazz Age tune, the Cote d'Azur seems to epitomize happiness, a state of being the world pursues with a vengeance.
