Mametas in one sentence
Mametas is an independent bilingual French Riviera guide created and edited by Renaud Muraire, a Niçois, for first-time visitors who want clear decisions rather than endless lists.
PRESS & PROFESSIONALS
A guide that makes the call, then shows its reasoning.
Mametas turns the French Riviera into a decision problem: where to stay, whether you need a car, which hotel fits the trip, which friction is worth accepting and what you can skip without regret.

We timed exactly the same car-free itinerary from six Riviera bases, door to door on official SNCF, Lignes d’Azur and ZOU! timetables: 7 h 53 of travel from Nice, 13 h 57 from Menton. Method, sources, limitations and data are public; figures may be quoted with a link to the study.

Two tools, one way of deciding
Mametas Riviera Fit chooses a base. Mametas Hotel Fit narrows the hotel selection once geography is settled. Reality Check is not a third tool: it is the part of each recommendation that spells out car, budget, season and friction.
The method
Identifiable sources, visible check dates and a clear separation between checked facts and editorial judgement. See Mametas Checked →
