Appartement 2bedrooms 3min de Palais des Festivals

Hotel Description

Honestly, when I first walked up to this place on rue Georges Clémenceau, I wasn’t expecting much – it’s tucked into this typical Cannes residential building that you’d probably walk right past. But you know what? That’s actually part of its charm. The two-bedroom apartment feels like you’re staying in someone’s actual home rather than some sterile hotel room, and I mean that in the best way possible.

The location is where this place really shines, and I’m not just talking about the whole “3 minutes to Palais des Festivals” thing (though yeah, you literally can walk there in flip-flops if you want). What I love is that you’re right in the thick of Cannes but on this quieter residential street where you can actually get some sleep. You’ve got the morning market at Marché Forville just around the corner – I’d grab fresh croissants and coffee there most mornings instead of paying hotel prices. The old port is maybe a five-minute stroll, and honestly, sitting at one of those waterfront cafés watching the yachts is worth the trip alone. Plus, you’re close enough to La Croisette that you can easily walk to all those fancy beach clubs, but far enough away that you won’t hear the late-night party crowds stumbling home.

The apartment itself is pretty solid for what you’re paying – nothing fancy, but everything works and there’s actually space to spread out, which you don’t always get in Cannes. The kitchen’s basic but functional if you want to cook (those Forville market tomatoes aren’t going to eat themselves), and having two proper bedrooms means you’re not fighting over bathroom time. I will say the building’s a bit old-school French, so don’t expect a fancy lobby or concierge service – it’s more like staying at your friend’s place, complete with the slightly temperamental elevator. The 8.2 rating feels about right; it’s not going to blow you away, but it does exactly what it promises without any major disappointments. During festival season this area gets absolutely crazy busy, but the rest of the year it’s got this nice neighborhood vibe where you can pretend you’re a local for a few days.

Reviews

• Galia from France – 3 March 2025 (8/10)

  This is a great appartement! It is big, two real bed rooms, seperated by a the living room and kitchen area. The kitchen is big enough, fully equipped. Shades on windows, so you wont wake up from the sun, comfortable beds, big enough bathroom. We had no noise problems. I was worried because currently it has a bed notation on booking, but there is really no reason for that, this is a great appartement.

• Karen from United Kingdom – 17 March 2023 (8/10)

  Fantastic property in a perfect location for visiting Cannes, either for business or vacation. The hosts were wonderfully accommodating to our early arrival and stayed in touch in the days leading to and during our stay. The apartment is very clean and in a wonderful old building right next to the marina and restaurants. You can see the marina from the living room window. :). Fully equipped kitchen and bottles of water, coffee and biscuits on arrival were a very welcome touch. Good sized bathroom and bedrooms and comfortable beds.
  
  What could be improved: Nothing. Everything was great – didn’t want to leave! Will definitely book again for a future trip.

• Ana from Romania – 11 August 2024 (9/10)

  Very, very good location. We had a good stay here.

• Csaba from Hungary – 29 October 2024 (2/10)

  Good restaurants nearby.
  
  What could be improved: The corridor smells bad. While we were there, an ambulance took one of the neighbors and they left a pool of blood in front of the house door. The worse was, one of the neighbors returned home from a party around 3AM, and they started an afterparty in their apartment that lasted until 8AM. On a simple Tuesday!!
  I was there on a business trip. At the end the owner promised me a VAT invoice, but after 1 month he admitted he is unable to give me one, so I could not charge the cost to my company, it became a private expense and it costed me 30% more, because the amount has been paid by a company card.

• Ritahonan from Ireland – 3 January 2024 (1/10)

  Location (other than no parking) would have been excellent.
  
  What could be improved: The code provided didn't work. Host by phone gave us multiple other possible codes to no avail. After more than a half hour we finally left and found a hotel. Host said they would come to try to sort the entry out but we would have had to wait another 40mins and it was late at night.

• Martina from Germany – 16 April 2024 (8/10)

  Die Lage in der Nähe des Palais des Festivals et Congrès und die Freundlichkeit sowie gute Erreichbarkeit der Vermieter.
  
  What could be improved: Nichts

• Noémie from France – 2 March 2023 (7/10)

  Bien agencé, proche du palais des festivals
  
  What could be improved: Stationnement dans la rue compliqué mais ce n'est pas la faute de l'hôte. Le parking payant est à 5min il a donc fallu marcher avec les enfants + bagages… mais Cannes est faite ainsi !

• Elio from Italy – 23 May 2024 (7/10)

  What could be improved: Non contatto e niente fattura

• Marie from France – 13 February 2023 (7/10)

  Appartement très bien placé, juste à côté du port, et des restaurants et situé proche de tout.
  Bon rapport qualité / prix.
  
  What could be improved: L’appartement n’a pas été chauffé avant notre arrivée, étant au mois de février il faisait un peu froid mais une fois les chauffages allumés tout était ok.
