Bed and Breakfast Sous L'Olivier
406, Chemin de la Colle Supérieure , 06500 Menton, France – Great location - show map
Amazing opportunity to be between the mountains and the sea in a quiet exquisitely crafted get away bedroom, living room, luxurious bathroom and gardens. Lucy is an energetic and welcoming host. Breakfast served graciously at her family table. We were completely happy to explore Italy and Menton from this home away.
ItalyThe second night we had dinner at the property.It was very good.
United States of AmericaLucie and her parents are amazing hosts and wonderful people, and they’ve built a fabulous place with lovely details everywhere you look, whether you’re inside your suite, relaxing in the back garden, or enjoying a truly delicious breakfast in the front garden. Really a special place! The views from up there are quite something, and the walk down to the center of old Menton (about 20 min) is simply gorgeous. Be sure to ask them where to get a taxi back up (you are unlikely to flag one down at random and need to go to one of the designated stands). Menton, really the whole area - in fact the whole region - is a terrific place to visit, and this is the perfect place to stay in Menton.
United States of AmericaLovely small hotel in the hills above Menton, with beautiful views of the surrounding valleys. Very quiet and comfortable. The owner was delightful -- very friendly and welcoming, and willing to help with local activities. The breakfasts were delicious. She also made us dinner one night, which was very tasty. We very much enjoyed the quiet hillside location, but it is a 30-minute walk to town. A car or cab may be needed.
FranceIt was a beautiful location with a spacious and comfortable room. Very peaceful and relaxing. Walk to town wasn’t too bad. Lucie was a wonderful host. Very friendly, helpful and accommodating. Breakfast was very fresh and delicious. Eggs straight from the hen house were the best I’ve ever tasted. If you walk to town I would suggest popping in to a restaurant or cafe and asking them to call you a taxi for returning to your room.
United States of AmericaLucy and her parents were wonderful, generous hosts who went out of their way to be helpful. The breakfasts were sensational and served outside in the very pleasant surrounds. This Bed & Breakfast was very clean and comfortable; and had lots of interesting touches such as an array of books plus some artistic pieces. The outdoor seating area is beautifully planted out and there is plentiful outdoor furniture for enjoying an evening wine or meal. There is a designated kitchen space with refrigerator, microwave, cutlery and plates, which was a very useful facility. We thoroughly enjoyed our time here and would definitely recommend it to visitors to Menton.
New ZealandThe garden was amazing, took my breath away. The room was beautifully decorated, perfect temperature and comfy bed. The breakfast was delicious especially the freshly made pancakes.
United KingdomLuci is a very enthusiastic and warm host willing to make suggestions to ensure an authentic experience. The setting is idyllic and removed from the tourist crush of Nice and Monaco. The facilities are excellent for the independent traveller A car is advisable unless you are quite fit.
AustraliaA wonderful place on the hills above the town of Menton. Lovely comfortable rooms set in a beautiful garden with a fantastic view of the surrounding heights. The hosts were delightful and welcoming and did their utmost to ensure our stay was as enjoyable as possible.

En 1998, mes parents trouvez enfin, le terrain qui leur permettraient de réaliser leur rêve: construire une maison. Une maison qui nous ressemblerait, à nous trois, entourée d'un grand jardin pour recevoir tous les amis. Rêve réalisé au bout de 10 ans de réflexion et de labeur. C'est en 2010 que j'ai décidé d'ouvrir une chambres d'hôtes. L'occasion de pouvoir faire vivre le lieu, de partager cette espace mais surtout de faire de belles rencontres.
Notre goût pour l'architecture et l'histoire de l'art nous ont permis de réaliser notre maison de rêve. Passionnée par ma ville et son patrimoine, je serai votre guide pour toutes les richesses touristiques de notre région.
La colline de la Colle supérieure surplombe le centre historique de Menton, balcon sur la méditerranée, ce chemin , il y a quelques années à peine était encore un sentier muletier non accessible aux véhicules. c'était une charmante campagne mentonnaise, couverte d'oliveraies et de citronneraies. Aujourd'hui bien que quelques villas est colonisées cette colline,le quartier reste agreste et très calme: un petit paradis, mais le paradis se mérite, il vous faudra y accéder par une route sinueuse et étroite pas toujours facile pour les personnes qui n'ont pas l'habitude des routes de montagne.
