Clémenceau by Olam Properties 3 pcs Rénové 2022

Hotel Description

So I stumbled across this gem on rue Georges Clémenceau completely by accident – well, actually I was looking for a decent place to crash that wouldn’t break the bank in Cannes, and honestly? Best mistake I’ve made in a while. The Clémenceau by Olam Properties sits right on the third floor of this classic French building, and you know what struck me first? They actually renovated the whole thing in 2022, which means everything feels fresh without losing that authentic Cannes character. The entrance is tucked between a little café and one of those French pharmacies with the green cross – you’ll walk right past it if you’re not paying attention.

Here’s the thing about the location that nobody tells you in those generic travel guides – you’re literally a three-minute walk from the Palais des Festivals, but more importantly, you’re on one of those quiet residential streets where actual locals live. I mean, you’ll hear some street noise during the day (it’s Cannes, not a monastery), but at night it gets surprisingly peaceful. The morning routine became this lovely ritual where I’d grab coffee from the corner boulangerie – the owner, Marie, makes these incredible pain au chocolat that are still warm at 7 AM. Walking back to the apartment with fresh pastries, watching the city wake up… that’s the kind of stuff that makes a trip memorable.

The apartment itself is what really won me over though. Three pieces, completely renovated, and you can tell they put thought into the details rather than just slapping some IKEA furniture together and calling it done. The kitchen actually works – I made dinner a few nights because, let’s be honest, eating out every meal in Cannes gets expensive fast. There’s this little balcony that catches the afternoon light perfectly, great for working if you need to check emails or just sitting with a glass of wine from the Monoprix down the street. The shower has proper water pressure (thank god), and the bed is comfortable enough that I didn’t wake up feeling like I’d been wrestling with French linens all night. Only minor gripe? The Wi-Fi gets a bit spotty during peak hours, but that might have been a blessing in disguise. Sometimes you need an excuse to actually disconnect and wander around the Suquet neighborhood instead of doom-scrolling Instagram.

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.
