Hotel Description

You know what struck me first about this little apartment on Rue du Châtaignier? It’s tucked away just enough that you feel like you’ve discovered something the cruise ship crowds haven’t found yet, but honestly, you’re still only a ten-minute walk from all the Cannes action. I mean, that’s the sweet spot right there – close enough to stumble back from a late dinner on Rue d’Antibes, but far enough that you’re not dealing with the street noise and tourist chaos at 2 AM.

The apartment itself is what the French would call “bien situé” – and they’re not wrong. It’s a proper two-room setup with this lovely little terrace that actually gets morning sun (trust me, that matters when you’re having your coffee and planning your day). The space feels lived-in rather than sterile, which I appreciate after staying in too many cookie-cutter hotel rooms. The terrace isn’t huge, but it’s perfectly sized for two people to have breakfast or an evening drink – and you can actually see a slice of the Mediterranean if you crane your neck just right. The building itself is typical Cannes residential, which means it has character but also means the elevator is… well, let’s just say it adds to the authentic French experience.

What really sold me on this place was how the owner clearly knows the neighborhood. They left these little notes about where to get the best bread (there’s a boulangerie on Rue Saint-Antoine that locals line up at), which beach clubs aren’t tourist traps, and – this was genius – how to avoid the morning market crowds if you just want to grab groceries. The apartment sits in this quiet residential pocket where you’ll see actual Cannois walking their dogs and chatting with neighbors, not just influencers posing for Instagram. Parking can be a bit of a puzzle (it’s Cannes, after all), but there’s usually street parking if you’re willing to walk a block or two, and honestly, you don’t really need a car once you’re settled in. The train station is an easy fifteen-minute walk, and if you’re planning day trips to Nice or Monaco, that’s your golden ticket. I stayed here during shoulder season and loved how the terrace became this perfect little refuge in the afternoons – you could hear the distant sounds of the city but still feel like you had your own private corner of the French Riviera. For a three-star place, it punches way above its weight, and that 9 rating makes complete sense once you realize you’re getting the location and the local experience without paying Croisette prices.

Many travelers prefer to book apartments in Cannes through local agencies that offer personalized recommendations and insider knowledge about the best neighborhoods for exploring the city’s rich cinematic heritage.

    Nice, well-equipped apartment. Good quality appliances and a comfortable bed. Very close to the Palais des Festivals, which was important to me.

    What could be improved: There was no laundry detergent, but it’s a really minor thing.
