In a nutshell
Absolutely beautiful, memorable, I still dream about it!
Eze bord de Mer - home to U2's Bono
NiceLife Says: Bono - real name Paul Hewson - has been fronting the band U2 for a few decades and has earned him one of the top rankings among the millionaires of rock. His beachfront villa Eze les Roses is on four floors and its grounds back on to the railway station Eze bord du Mer. The...
Jardin Equotique and commanding views
NiceLife Says: Eze Village is crowned by its Jardin Exotique. The four Euro admission is an essential part of a visit to Eze Village not because you are interested in cacti but because it has a monopoly of the panorama, which is one of the most spectacular along this stretch of the...
Quaint tourist shops and artist studios
NiceLife Says: The warren of tiny streets that make up this quaint perched village are home to a large number of artists ateliers, much as will be found in their twin tourist attraction village St Paul de Vence. These boutiques showcase local artists works, mostly paintings in the...
The only thing to do - see the gardens.
ranger49 Says: The gardens are laid out on a steeply sloping hillside with wonderful views looking down to the coast and the the Mediterranean below.In February some of the more tender plants were covered with gardener's fleece. Overall the garden was still impressive even if lacking some...
Flying.Scotsman Says: Like most of the "villages perchés" there is no need for a detailed route as they are small enough to walk along every street without getting lost. So just explore the narrow streets, stairs and hidden corners, which as you have probably gathered is one of my favourite...
Flying.Scotsman Says: This garden is set on the top of the hill in the grounds of the ruined 14th century chateau and has many varieties of succulents and cacti. For those more interested in the views, they are spectacular too. There is a 5€ entrance fee, but the gardens and view are worth the...
Church of Our Lady of Assumption.
Flying.Scotsman Says: Referred to in some guide books as "the church" or "l'eglise" it was built in the 18th century by Italian architect Antonio Spirelli. It has a classical facade and baroque interior. The interior shows signs of age, but is worth a visit. The church is in a lovely setting and...

4 Reviews and 128 Opinions Chateau Eza is awful. Fake plastic wood floor, stains on the bedspread, tired decorating, peeling...
Les Remparts @ Chevre d' Or: excellent food and even better views!
Alikatt Says: First of all, it's stellar in every aspect : the quality of food and service . It offers the most stunning views of the sea below, St. Jean-Cap Ferrat and Villefranche Sur Mer which comes with a pretty penny. This restaurant is for open-terrace dining which is a must during...
Auberge de la Croix du Pape: Great ambience, wonderful food
Jeanlyon Says: We were a party of 14. We had a tuna salad starter and then fillet of beef afterwards. The beef was just wonderful. Then strawberry pavlova, the best I have ever tasted. Good wines and great location overlooking Villefranche sur Mer.
Chateau Eza: Top of the Hill Restaurant
dustmon Says: While walking the mazey streets of Eze, it started to got a little drizzly, and it was lunch time, so we stopped in to this Michelin rated Restaurant nearly at the top of the hill. We had some lovely soup and a small Nicoise Salad each, with a glass of fine wine, it came to...
lotharscheer Says: Bus 112 goes (coming from Nice) only 6 times a day (7.30 9.30, 11.30 14.30, 16.30 and 19) in weekdays to Monaco (Roqueville), none in sundays and holidays, € 1.Bus 82 goes about every hour to Nice, 30 minutes, € 1 (Nice city tarif including 70 minutes of bus or tram in Nice,...
NiceLife Says: The principal access to Eze Village, which sits on top of its own hill hundreds of feet above sea level, is the not terribly frequent bus route 82 from Nice bus station or the even less frequent 112 from Nice Bus Station to Beausoliel above Monaco. When cruiseboats are in...
dustmon Says: We stopped in one of the galleries (there aren't that many total, really) and my girlfriend bought a small painting, and I got a small nude statue---I have never been able to find out anything else about the sculptor tho---any help would be appreciated. It is signed at the...
Fragonard Perfume Factory/Shop: Floral Bouquet of the Senses
dustmon Says: My girl definitely wanted to stop here on our driving tour of Southern France, and it was pretty fun. There is a tour of the factory where they assist in helping one find a scent or two that you like. The shop at the end has soaps, fragrances, and other French goodies, so...
Various shops: Shopping in Eze
Flying.Scotsman Says: There are many small gift shops and art galleries, and 2 perfume makers: Parfumerie Fragonard and Parfumerie Galinard. Several of the shops are dug into the cliffside like caves. Excellent for upmarket shopping or just browsing; the shops themselves are as interesting as the...
You will see two donkeys at the foot of the chateau hill. The plate says they are called Nani and Nina, and they are local.
Honestly, I would not guess they are donkeys, too, without this prompt. Nor did I get quite clear what exactly they are doing there. Unlikely they are any means of transportation these days.
I do hope Nani and Nina get a walk now and then; it must be pretty tiresome to stand in that stall all day long with all those fussy tourists staring :)

This tourist trap is a vacation rental that I contracted with for the end of August and first week of September through Vacapedia.
In addition to paying a deposit, I also paid extra for trip insurance. When health concerns forced me to cancel the trip, I could get no one at Vacapedia or Interchalet, the managing firm for Les Siamois, to respond despite more than 7 attempts to contact them over a period of several weeks.
Not only have they made off with my quite substantial deposit, they charged me for a trip insurance policy which seems to have no value either.
Stay AWAY from Vacapedia, InterChalet and Les Siamois!!! They are a highly unprofessional and unethical organization.

NiceLife Says: For a fine panoramic view of Eze Village right down to the sea at Eze Bord de Mer, walk along the bridge approaching Eze direction Nice, through the road tunnel, and keep walking along the main road until you have the full panorama looking back. If you are headed back to...
Go in September and avoid the crowds
TOPSHELFPUBCRAWLER Says: The most amazing part of Eze is the charm of this medieval village. Sure, its a little touristy, but go in September and enjoy more of the architecture and views, and less of the crowds. Very enchanting. Pedestrian traffic only, difficult to navigate for those requiring...
VeronicaG Says: Can't you just imagine Rapunzel* singing from this window as her long, long hair trailed to the ground or picture the King's son waiting ever so patiently to climb up her tresses and ascend to her chamber? Well, as I said earlier, it takes little imagination to picture Eze...
