It's a great location close to bus & train station.. room size is good. Always really nice towels. However there was very little heating provided and it was very cold. I arrived a day late for my 4 days booking, the owner meet me at reception said he knows am very tired I should go to my room and rest and I shall come back to pay after. Within 10 minutes of getting to room this guy pull payment for 3 nights of my card. On my second night my laptop was hacked, I phoned the owner to ask if someone came to my room when I was gone because there was strange hair on my laptop and the battery was dead. To make my stay worse this guy show up at my room at 12:30 the following day telling I need to go because my booking has expired. When the booking clearly stated after I made him print it of on his computer , I had one more day. He apologised and say it's his mistake however I have to pay him for one more day, and insisting it's not much money just pay it.. As I said to him, if you had kept your word when I arrived and allow me to come sort out the booking in person then this situation would of never happen. However you a cheeky man and cannot be trusted with clients financial details and your internet. It's a great location however the owner is clearly not professional, responsible & trustworthy.. Go stay at your own risk. Please be guided accordingly

probably the cheapest possible hotel
I liked the hotel, especially for the friendly staffs. I would be very nice to have wifi in the rooms (this is just a recommendation to the hotel though they do not claimed to have wifi in the rooms). Rooms are quite large for a single person. cleanliness is also nice. Breakfast is not good, same for all the days (at least in my a week experience). If you make a balance between the cost and comfort then I think hotel de Belgique is one of the best choices.

Overall satisfying.
Very nice place for the price. The train station is two minute’s walk away. My room was clean and serviced daily. Only issue was the late check-in lady on the phone was quite rude, although I had not met that particular person during my stay. The rest of the staff/owner were reasonably nice.

well located one star hotel with cheerful staff
a last minute requirement to find a hotel became a pleasant reality when i checked into the Hotel de Belgique. the reception staff were charming and informative. the hotel suited my price range, has a great location a few minutes walk from both the railway & coach stations and its easy walking distance to the seafront and the beach, to shops and restaurants. the communal areas are clean & bright and free wifi is available here. the continental breakfast is fresh from the boulangerie and served with a smile. being a 1 star hotel, the room is basic but functional. external noise is mitigated but not excluded by the double glazing and shutters. noise (conversation & snoring) could be heard through the walls from the adjoining room. the room was clean. the shower had great water pressure and plenty of hot water but lacked a mount and so it wasn't possible to relax in the shower after a long day as the head had to be hand held. sachets of shower gel (extras available on request) were the only toiletries provided. wifi wasn't available in my room.

Good, basic hotel.
For a single room with internal bathroom and a little balcony to see the beautiful views (especially at night) it was an awesome price. The gentlemen (manager?) at the front desk was incredibly helpful (surpassed my expectations) and the train station was literally less than a minute up the same road. Awesome if you want to see Monte Carlo, Nice, Cannes, Antibes but don’t want to pay for the expensive accomodation there. Highly recommend!

A wee bit of fraud
The owner of the hotel was so nice and the food was good, but we got pretty seriously scammed. We had paid for a Quadruple 2 bedroom suite with a washing machine and had made an hour drive out of our way (and an hour back) just to be able to wash our clothes. It was not a two bedroom, but about 10'x10' with two twin beds side by side. Everyone was gone by the time, but I had been driving 15 hours and had no fight in me anyway. I was exhausted and cried a lot through that night because I had no clean clothes, would get no sleep (we had two separate rooms because there is a snorer in our midst ;-) and I didn't even get to enjoy the French Riviera because the owner told us there would be no open restaurants or the like at 8pm. We had been having a very hard time being seated in France, so I considered it possible. I hate to have to out the guy, because the owner was really nice, but we got screwed.

Low price, high standards.
Returned for the second time in quick succession due to the low prices of the Hostel, the excellent location and the friendliness of all the staff that worked on the premises throughout our stay. The only negative was the weak WiFi connection, though we didn't exactly come to the south of France to sit indoors on the internet all day! The Hostel is situated roughly ten seconds away from the train station and all other amenities and the beach are within easy reach. Totally recommend this hostel if you happen to travel with friends or are wanting a romantic getaway without a huge pricetag. Big thumbs up and thank you Hotel restaurant de Belgique.

Reasonable
You get what you pay for. It is a bit hard to find as the entry door of the hotel is so tiny and it was very hard to find parking around the hotel. Some staff spoke English and was polite and helpful. Some don't speak at all. Be sure to arrive during the check in hours (earlier if you can). It is located conveniently, but there is a train station close by so if you are sensitive to noise, this place may not work for you.

Old but friendly
A little hotel. We had a room with a shared bathroom and a shared toilet. It is pretty old but the staff at reception gave good friendly service. When we came down for breakfast there was no place set for us and they acted like they weren't expecting us even though we booked and paid the night before.

A bed, a shower don't expect more
Needed to stay over night after a transatlantic flight before heading somewhere else. We found just enough of what we were looking for, a bed and a shower, that's it that's all, parking can be an issue, we heard before that sound can be an issue and even if we hadn't had any problem with that we could still perfectly understand why people said that: the train station is just across the street.

Liked: Cleanliness
This was my second time to stay at the Hotel Belgique. I was pleasantly surprised at the upgrading to this establishment. My room was adequate - clean with basic comfort and safety. However, I found only one towel/ a hand towel in my room and when I requested a bath towel I was told that only one towel is usually supplied! Fortunately, the ,maitre, relented and gave me a bath towel which I thanked him for. Madame does not engage well with foreigners.I noticed this on my previous visit some years ago and sadly nothing has changed.- if you speak little or no French then communication is -`zero`- except for sign language! the same lady failed to pass on an important telephone msg to me, from a relative which she received. after I arrived at the hotel,some thing that I did not appreciate and her action could have had serious consequences for me and my family. This hotel suited my schedule and I may stay there again if it suits me but I do think that the Madame de Hotel could make a better effort to engage more cordially with her paying guests just as she does with the non-paying passers by, namely the natives. All other staff were pleasant and helpful. Finally, Menton is a lovely place and well worth visiting - the natives are friendly/cordial! Viva La France! Claire Marie/Irland

It was super cheap and was beyond satisfaction for the price even though it's a one star. The location is perfect since it's right by the train station and only a few steps away from an amazing beach.
