A 2 pas de la croisette Overview

First Impressions

Walking up to A 2 pas de la croisette, you immediately understand why this three-star gem has such devoted fans. The name literally means “two steps from La Croisette,” and honestly, they’re not exaggerating — you’re genuinely just a quick stroll from Cannes’ famous boulevard. I mean, when a place gets a 9.7 rating, you know they’re doing something right. The building itself has that classic French Riviera charm without trying too hard, which I actually appreciate more than some of the flashier hotels nearby.

The Perfect Cannes Location

Here’s what locals know — being close to La Croisette without the insane prices of beachfront properties is pure gold. You can walk to the Palais des Festivals in about five minutes, hit the beach whenever you want, but still retreat to a quieter street when the crowds get overwhelming. Cannes during festival season can be absolutely mad, so having this peaceful spot on Avenue de Grasse feels like finding a secret hideaway. The neighborhood has that authentic French feel with local cafés and shops, not just tourist traps.

The Room Experience

My room was surprisingly spacious for Cannes standards — you know how these coastal towns can be with tiny spaces and massive price tags. The décor strikes this nice balance between modern comfort and French elegance, nothing too fancy but everything works perfectly. What really impressed me was the attention to detail; good lighting for actually reading, proper storage space, and a bathroom that doesn’t require contortionist skills. The beds are genuinely comfortable too, which matters more than people realize when you’re exploring the city all day.

Daily Rhythms and Amenities

Mornings here feel relaxed in a way that’s hard to find in busy Cannes. The staff — and I can’t stress this enough — actually seem to care about making your stay work well. They’ll give you real recommendations, not just the obvious tourist spots everyone mentions. There’s no fancy spa or elaborate facilities, but honestly, when you’re this close to everything that matters, you don’t need a resort-style setup. The focus is clearly on location and service, which works perfectly for couples wanting to explore the area.

Why Guests Love It

After staying here, I totally get why couples rate this place so highly for romantic getaways. It’s intimate without being cramped, well-located without the chaos, and the staff creates this welcoming atmosphere that makes you feel like regulars even on your first visit. You’re paying for prime real estate access at reasonable prices — something that’s genuinely rare along the French Riviera. The combination of that 9.7 rating and the “top location” praise from recent guests isn’t just marketing speak; it’s couples discovering they can actually afford to stay near La Croisette without sacrificing comfort or charm.

  Our host/owner Bruno met us at the apartment, helped bring in the bags, explained all of the details of the apartment and gave us some great restaurant recommendations. The apartment is very large, beautifully decorated & furnished, fully equipped kitchen, fantastic location, easy walking right near to all of the shopping, dining and sights of Cannes. The large parking lot across the street made parking our car a breeze. We highly recommend the apartment and plan on staying there again soon.

• Matthias from Austria – 15 September 2024 (10/10)

  Absolutely stunning apartement, beatiful interior design, very comfortable bed, equipped with everything that was needed. Very central location, just a few minutes walk to the train station, shopping street, beach and old town. Hosts were extremly amicable and the check in was very smooth. Parking at Vaubaun is a bit finicky, use St. Nicolas if travelling with a bigger car.
