This part of the world is not cheap to stay in - huge villas behind gates and gigantic yachts - and the land prices reflect the fact it is a desirable area. As a result the apartment was very small for the amount charged for it. The complex was rather tired, and the glossy pictures on the Pierre et Vacances... More

Thank you for taking the time to post a review. We are sorry you were disappointed with the size of your apartment. Our website and brochure do outline room dimension, sizes, furnishings and equipment available, but the price of accomodation does factor in the location. We have logged your review on the resort and mini-market and will pass your comments... More

After reading some of the other reviews on Trip Advisor I was a bit worried about having booked this Pierre & Vacances residence. However, we had previously stayed at a super residence in La Baule and hoped that the one at Villefranche sur Mer would be just as good. It was! Although we were only a party of 3 (2... More

We booked this place mainly because of the wonderful location and in addition they accepted our dog. We booked a 1 bedroom apartment with sea view. This apartment had a beautiful sea view, but had an unbelievable small bedroom facing the noisy Bass Cornice. Also, there were broken tiles, especially in the living room and the apartment was not in... More

Stayed in a couple of other lovely hotels in Villefranche before our booking for 4 nights in L'Ange Gardien. Arrived to a friendly reception, nice enough pool with a good view. Then went to level -3 to see the suite (sized for 6 to 7 people). It was tiny, smelt damp, was dirty, the beds were so short my husband... More

My family and I stayed here for 2 weeks in July. We spent a week here in June last year, and enjoyed Villefranche so much that we decided to return, but this time for 2 weeks. The accommodation is fine as long as you are expecting space which is small but clean and functional. We experienced a lot of noise... More

The residence is only 3 storeys high and looks attractive. The studio apartment was small, about caravan size but with a proper bathroom and a cabine with bunks, but we slept on the couches which were very comfortable although the blankets provided are not so nice as they are smelly, fluffy and irritating. The decor was fresh and the equipment... More

The apartments have been recently refurbished. We stayed in a studio for 5,but i certainly wouldn't recommend it for more than 2 people. They were small but very clean. Studios have one set of bunk beds. We didn't use them-slept on the couch. The kitchens are small but well equipped with dishwasher etc.. We would definitely go for a one-bedroomed... More

Booked this through Expedia. Arrived in reception to see good swimming pool and sitting area with outstanding view of the lovely bay of Villefranche. However ... went to accommodation. All of the rooms were filthy; kitchen area VERY unhygienic and bathroom even worse. Bedroom is a cupboard or cell with a tiny barred window and a bed which fills this... More

My family and I have just returned from a one week holiday in Villefranche-Sur-Mer staying at Pierre & Vacances. I would not recommend this 'hotel' to anyone and never want to go there again. Whilst it is set in a beautiful bay with spectacular views of the sea it has the most basic and dirtiest accomodation I have ever stayed... More

Now i know why this place was not expensive. The rooms are tiny (the master bedroom is claustrophobic size, we never used it), the main room looks like a corridor (to the balcony) with two small beds on each side. Then this place is for the do it yourselfer, next time I will go to a real hotel with standard... More
