Appartement Vaste Horizon – LRA Cannes

Hotel Description

Honestly, when I first walked up to Appartement Vaste Horizon on Rue Edith Cavell, I wasn’t expecting much – I mean, it’s tucked into this quiet residential street that most tourists probably wouldn’t even notice. But you know what? That turned out to be exactly what made it special. The building has this understated French charm that feels more like staying at a well-off friend’s place than some cookie-cutter hotel, and the apartment-style setup means you actually get space to breathe, which is pretty rare in Cannes unless you’re dropping serious cash.

The location is honestly brilliant if you know Cannes at all. You’re maybe a seven-minute walk from the Palais des Festivals (I timed it), but you’re completely removed from all that madness around La Croisette. Rue Edith Cavell runs parallel to some of the main tourist drags, so you can slip over to Boulevard Carnot when you need restaurants or that Monoprix for groceries, but come back to actual quiet at night. The neighborhood has this lived-in feel – you’ll see locals walking their dogs in the morning, and there’s a decent boulangerie just around the corner on Rue Hoche that does proper croissants, not the tourist versions. Parking was actually manageable too, which anyone who’s driven in Cannes during festival season will tell you is basically a miracle.

What really sold me on the place was how thoughtfully it’s set up inside. The “vaste” in the name isn’t just marketing speak – these are genuinely spacious apartments with proper kitchens, so you can grab fresh stuff from the morning market at Forville and actually cook if you want a break from restaurant prices. The furnishings feel contemporary but not sterile, and honestly, after staying in some cramped Cannes hotels where you can barely open your suitcase, having room to spread out was such a relief. The Wi-Fi was solid (tested it on multiple video calls), and the building itself is quiet – I mean, you’ll still hear some street noise during the day because it’s still the city, but nothing like what you’d get closer to the port. Check-in was refreshingly straightforward too, none of that overly formal hotel dance. The 8.8 rating makes total sense when you factor in that you’re getting apartment-level space and local neighborhood vibes while still being close enough to walk to all the Cannes stuff you came for. It’s sort of the best of both worlds if you want to experience the city but actually sleep well at night.

  nothing like anything at all.
  they are scamming real estate group.
  
  What could be improved: At first when I checked in this property they tried to charge me deposit for €2000 by my cc.and then they also charged me cleaning fee for €105 even I just checked in I didn’t use it property yet…
  fortunately my cc didn’t work for €2000 deposit but they took cleaning fee €105 and instead of €2000 deposit I gave them for my ID and €200 cash for deposit.
  then during when I stay there no hot water at all even 2 days I couldn’t make hot jacuzzi tub because of no hot water.then 7th Sep one of management guy entered property without any our permission.
  they showed me movie yes hot water is coming.but they just came into our room without our permission!!but for sure during when I stay there for 2 days no hot water at all.
  And when I checked out they came to apartment and they started to claimed all flooring damage things.then they said “this flooring damage you guys moved table then had damage.that’s why we can’t give back your ID and deposit for €200”
  then I told them “I never moved your table at once.if you say like that let’s call the police and check this table finger print because we never touch this table so let’s see.”
  then he screamed and shout to me.
  “you are stupid!!I never give back to your ID and deposit”
  I had to call customer center and police.
  but even police didn’t show up.
  finally they gave back to my ID but no €200 my cash.
  I never had any this scamming experience before but they are just scamming.
  Don’t stay even don’t booking this property at all!!!!

  Bon emplacement, immeuble vieillot mais appartement rénové, propre dans l'ensemble
  
  What could be improved: 23€ pour le linge de bain, faire tourner le LV avant de partir sinon c'est 50€ de pénalité, idem pour les poubelles, ect ect …

• Fahrudin from Austria – 13 June 2022 (2/10)

  Nichts!
  
  What could be improved: Personal hat sich 1h verspätet, Klimaanlage funktioniert nicht!
  Sehr Schlechtes Erfahrung, nie wieder!!

• Estelle from France – 10 June 2022 (5/10)

  l’emplacement est génial est idéal, appartement tres calme, café a l’arrivee et bouteille de rosé tres appréciée pour notre arrivée
  
  What could be improved: la propreté du sol et des douches a l’entree dans l’appartement n’était pas top. j’ai du demander a plusieurs reprises d’avoir la facture, le fonctionnement de la clim et du jacuzzi ne nous a pas été expliqué.
