LE CHESTER – Appartement 3 pièces – Cannes proche Croisette bord de mer

Hotel Description

Honestly, I wasn’t expecting much from an apartment rental in Cannes – you know how these places can be hit or miss. But Le Chester completely surprised me, and I mean that in the best way possible. The moment I walked into this three-room apartment on Avenue du Cèdre, I could tell someone actually cared about making this place feel like home rather than just another tourist trap.

What really got me was the location – it’s in La Californie Pezou, which sounds fancy but is actually this quieter residential pocket that locals love. You’re close enough to hear the Mediterranean if you open the windows (which I did constantly), but far enough from the Croisette madness that you can actually sleep at night. I mean, don’t get me wrong, the famous promenade is literally a short walk away, but you’re not dealing with the 3 AM party crowds stumbling past your window. The building itself sits on the first floor – that’s European first floor, so you’ve got these nice high ceilings and decent natural light streaming in during the morning hours.

The apartment feels properly lived-in, if that makes sense. Not like someone just threw together IKEA furniture and called it a day. There’s actual kitchen equipment that works, comfortable seating where you can sprawl out after a long day exploring the old town, and – this was huge for me – really solid Wi-Fi throughout. The three rooms give you space to spread out, which is honestly rare in Cannes unless you’re dropping serious cash on one of those palace hotels. I spent most evenings on what I’d call the main living area, planning the next day or just watching the light change over the neighborhood rooftops.

Parking was way easier than I expected too, which anyone who’s driven in Cannes will tell you is basically a small miracle. The check-in process was refreshingly straightforward – none of that complicated key pickup dance you sometimes get with apartment rentals. You can tell this isn’t some fly-by-night operation. The place stays clean without feeling sterile, and there’s something about the way it’s set up that just works for both quick business trips and longer stays where you want to actually settle in a bit.

What I keep coming back to is how it strikes this perfect balance between being close to everything you came to Cannes for – the beaches, the shopping, those incredible little restaurants tucked into the old quarter – while giving you a genuine neighborhood experience. You’ll walk past the same boulangerie every morning (get the pain au chocolat, trust me), and the evening strolls toward the water become this lovely routine rather than a tourist obligation. It’s the kind of place that makes you understand why people fall in love with this part of the French Riviera, beyond all the glitz and film festival hype.
