The fiancee du pirate is an small owner run hotel high above Villefranche sur Mer in Col de Villefranche. The price is reasonable compared to those on the main sea front. The breakfast was excellent although starting at 8.30am was a little late for us and at 16 euros a person, I thought a little expensive. The owners were friendly most of the time, although their constant smoking in the public areas was a little disappointing. The rooms are as I expected, a little tired in places but the aircon worked well and the beds were comfortable. The pool was lovely, quiet most of the time and a perfect temperature with a lovely view. Walking to Villefranche sur Mer ( where the main restaurants and shops were) down the 700 steps, took some effort and took about 25 minutes and I would say only the very fit would attempt to climb back up in the height of summer so we spend lots of money on ubers instead of walking back, although we did walk on several occasions when the uber vehicles were unavailable. (Def not recommended for those with less than moderate fitness levels though!) Would I stay here again? No, mainly because of the location being so high above the main town. If you are on a budget and want to stay on the outskirts of villefranche, then it's not a bad option but I think you can do better in Beaulieu or Nice itself and then catch the train to the lovely and lively Villefranche sur mer.
