Appartement Bourgeois à 5 min à pied du centre

Hotel Description

You know what caught me off guard about this place? Walking up Boulevard Carnot, I was expecting just another apartment rental, but this bourgeois-style flat actually has serious character. I mean, we’re talking high ceilings, those classic French windows that let in ridiculous amounts of light, and the kind of molding detail that makes you wonder why modern places skip all the good stuff.

The location is honestly perfect if you’re the type who wants to feel like you’re living in Cannes rather than just visiting. Five minutes to the center sounds like marketing speak, but I timed it – it’s actually closer to four minutes of easy walking to reach the main shopping streets. You’ll hit Rue d’Antibes first (that’s where the real shopping happens, not just the touristy stuff), and then it’s another few minutes down to the Croisette if you’re beach-bound. What I loved is that Boulevard Carnot itself has this residential vibe – you’ve got locals walking their dogs in the morning, a couple of neighborhood cafés that don’t gouge you on coffee prices, and it’s quiet enough at night that you’ll actually sleep well. During festival season though, well, nowhere in Cannes is completely immune to the buzz, but this street stays relatively sane.

The apartment itself feels properly French bourgeois – I’m talking about that particular style of elegant but lived-in comfort that you can’t fake. The kitchen actually works (you’d be surprised how many rentals phone this in), and there’s enough space to spread out your stuff without feeling cramped. Honestly, after staying in some of those cramped hotel rooms near the port, having a real living room felt like luxury. The bathroom’s been updated without losing the character, and the shower pressure is – thank god – actually decent. One small thing that impressed me: the host clearly understands what travelers need. There’s good wifi throughout, the kind of lighting you can actually read by, and proper blackout curtains because Cannes gets bright early in summer. The building itself is quiet, mostly locals and long-term renters, so you won’t be dealing with party noise echoing through thin walls. Parking can be tricky in this area (it’s street parking mostly), but that’s just Cannes for you – though there’s a public lot about two blocks away if you’re driving.

Travelers should reserve a hotel in Cannes at least two months ahead of their visit to ensure availability and secure better rates, especially during the peak May festival season when the city hosts its world-famous cinema celebrations.

Reviews

• Mathieu from Mauritius – 10 December 2024 (9/10)

  The space in the room! Great value for money compared to its competitors. Also super well located. Staff friendly and accommodating.
  
  What could be improved: The lack of soundproofing in the room (lots of noise from the elevator and could hear my neighbours talking in their room). Hotel is overall a bit old.

• Eleftherios23 from Greece – 20 January 2025 (10/10)

  Άριστη τοποθεσία. Άρτια εξοπλισμένο διαμέρισμα ικανό να φιλοξενήσει άνετα έως και 6 ενήλικες. Διαθέτει όλες τις ανέσεις του σπιτιού σας. Ζεστά δωμάτια. Μόλις 5λεπτα από το κέντρο της πόλης. Ο οικοδεσπότης μας ενημέρωσε για τα πάντα. Πολύ βολικό για όσους θέλουν να εξερευνήσουν της Κάννες. Πολύ κοντά υπάρχει φιλασομενο κλειστό με χρέωση φυσικά αλλά αξίζει.
  
  What could be improved: Η απουσία ανελκυστήρα καθώς είναι στον τρίτο όροφο του κτηρίου δεν είναι τόσο αρνητικό απλά καλό είναι να το γνωρίζετε.

• Sabina from Italy – 11 January 2025 (9/10)

  Appartamento bellissimo comodo come posizione se dovrò tornare a Cannes lo sceglierò di nuovo. Ottimo che ci sia l opzione extra per il posto auto
  
  What could be improved: Forse con le valigie più grosse le scale per salire risultano stancanti visto che manca l ascensore
