2 pièces avec piscine, 150 m de la plage.

Hotel Description

Look, I’ll be honest – when I first saw the name “2 pièces avec piscine, 150 m de la plage,” I thought it was just someone’s rental listing that got mixed up with proper hotels. But you know what? That straightforward approach actually tells you everything you need to know, and after staying here, I kind of appreciate the no-nonsense vibe.

The location on Rue Georges Clemenceau is pretty much perfect if you want to be in the thick of things without paying Croisette prices. You’re literally a two-minute walk from the beach – and I mean actually 150 meters, not that “close to beach” nonsense some places claim. The fifth floor means you’ll get decent views (especially if you snag a room facing south), though honestly, the elevator is one of those tiny European ones that’ll make you rethink packing that extra suitcase. The building itself has that classic Cannes apartment vibe – you know, the kind where you feel like you’re staying in someone’s actual home rather than a sterile hotel box.

What really sold me on this place was the pool situation. I mean, finding a hotel with a pool this close to the center that doesn’t cost a fortune? That’s rare in Cannes. The pool area gets great afternoon sun, and it’s actually big enough to swim a few laps if you’re into that sort of thing. During festival season – well, forget about finding a quiet spot, but in shoulder seasons like late September or early May, you might have it mostly to yourself. The apartment-style setup means you get a proper kitchen too, which is clutch when you realize that grabbing coffee and pastries from the boulangerie down the street costs about a quarter of what room service would run you. There’s a Monoprix just around the corner on Rue d’Antibes if you need groceries, and honestly, making your own breakfast on the little balcony while watching Cannes wake up is pretty magical.

The 8.1 rating feels about right – it’s not luxury, but it’s solid and well-maintained. The rooms are clean, the AC works (crucial in summer), and the Wi-Fi is reliable enough for video calls. Parking can be a bit of a headache since street spots are basically impossible during the day, but there’s a public garage a few blocks away. One thing to know: this isn’t a place with a 24-hour front desk and concierge service. It’s more like staying in a well-run apartment building, so if you need constant hand-holding, maybe look elsewhere. But if you want a genuine Cannes experience where you can walk to the Palais des Festivals in ten minutes, hit the beach whenever you want, and still have a pool to escape to when the crowds get overwhelming, this place delivers exactly what it promises on the tin.
