Hotels in Alpes-Maritimes, France

Alpes-Maritimes stretches from the French Riviera coastline up into the Maritime Alps, famous for its sun-drenched beaches in Nice and Cannes, plus ski slopes in the Mercantour National Park. The Mediterranean climate gives you hot summers (around 80°F / 27°C) perfect for swimming in the turquoise sea or walking the Promenade des Anglais, and mild winters (near 50°F / 10°C) ideal for snowshoeing in Auron or exploring the perfume factories in Grasse. Spring brings fewer crowds and a chance to hike the Gorges du Loup, while autumn is when you can bike along the cliffs of the Corniche d'Or without the July heat.
