If you're having difficulty choosing between the French and Italian Rivieras the three-star Hotel Astoria provides the solution. The panoramic terrace and rooms with balconies offer superb views along both the French and Italian coasts and the unmissable cities of Genoa and Nice are within easy reach, as is Monaco. The hotel is in a quiet, leafy area of Bordighera, a small seaside town on the part of the Italian Riviera famed for its blooms. It has all the mod cons expected of a good, family-friendly hotel, including 24-hour reception, restaurant, bar, private garden, currency exchange and a free car park.
