Don’t hesitate to stop by for a drink at the grand hotels. Contrary to what one might imagine, they are very welcoming places.
Here are the most beautiful hotel terraces on the Côte d’Azur:
Hotel Belles Rives, Juan les Pins

Located in Juan-les-Pins, facing the sea, this terrace is a magical place for lunch or simply a drink; on weekends, the Thea Time formula at 24 euros gives you access to an all-you-can-eat pastry buffet and cool drinks as well (between 3pm and 6pm). In the evening, for an aperitif, the place is ideal.
La Véranda, Grand Hôtel du Cap Ferrat

In the heart of a magnificent garden of Mediterranean plants, La Véranda welcomes you every day for an exceptionally relaxing moment. Warm staff who are attentive to your needs.
Bar Gordon Bennett, Hotel Réserve de Beaulieu sur Mer

Come for just a coffee in this magical place where you will forget the time… facing the sea and at the top of the pool of this famous hotel, this place remains unspoiled because it is little known.
La Terrasse, Hotel Versailles, Villefranche sur Mer

Overlooking the bay of Villefranche, with Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat opposite, the view from this terrace is magical! You can simply have a drink, lunch or dinner; the welcome is excellent, and so is the meal. A true place of relaxation and beauty.
Le 360 Lounge Bar, Hotel Radisson Blu, Cannes

Whether by day or by night, come relax as a couple or with friends in this chic and magical place. A terrace overlooking the entire bay of Cannes and facing the Lérins Islands, absolute tranquility.
La Terrasse du Méridien, Hôtel Méridien Nice

Facing the Baie des Anges, this terrace is one of the most beautiful in Nice. Wonderfully located and easy to reach (Méridien car park), you can simply have a drink or lunch, and stay as long as you like. A moment of absolute relaxation and undeniable charm.
Le Blue Gin Monaco, Monte-Carlo Bay Hôtel

One of my favourite spots on the Riviera. Here you forget everything to enjoy an exceptional moment. Facing the sea, calm and serenity, luxury and sensuality. In summer, evenings with a DJ. Chic and trendy.
Horizon Deck restaurant and Champagne Bar, Fairmont Hôtel

Facing the sea, on the top floor of the Fairmont hotel (formerly the Loews Hôtel), this venue is well known to lovers of beauty and luxury. Whether for lunch, dinner, or simply a drink, come spend a magical moment surrounded by beautiful people.
Bar Eden Roc, Hotel Eden Roc Antibes

This legendary landmark of the Côte d’Azur has welcomed the greatest stars. This magical place is very exclusive, so dress very elegantly; high-end prices. Open from April to October.
Terrasse de la Voile d’Or, Hôtel la Voile d’Or Saint Jean Cap Ferrat

“A cheek against the sea,” said Jean Cocteau… this legendary hotel has welcomed the greatest stars. Whether for a drink or a meal, this place is a haven of serenity and undeniable elegance. Very romantic as a couple or festive with friends or family, you will spend a magical moment.
