Le duplex – 2 pièces centre Cannes

Hotel Description

Look, I’ve stayed in my fair share of Cannes accommodations, and this little duplex on Avenue de Grasse honestly surprised me. When I first walked up to number 10, I’ll admit I was skeptical – it’s not exactly the glamorous Croisette address you picture when you think Cannes. But you know what? That’s actually what makes it perfect.

The duplex itself feels like staying in a friend’s apartment rather than some sterile hotel room. There’s this nice lived-in quality to the place – I mean, it’s clean and well-maintained, don’t get me wrong – but it has character. The layout works really well too; having that separation between levels gives you space to spread out, which is rare in Cannes unless you’re dropping serious cash. What really sold me though was stepping out in the morning and realizing how central you actually are. Avenue de Grasse might not sound fancy, but walk five minutes toward the port and you’re right in the thick of things. The Marché Forville is basically around the corner (perfect for grabbing fresh pastries), and honestly, being slightly removed from the main tourist chaos means you can actually sleep at night. I stayed during the film festival madness one year, and while the Croisette was absolutely insane, this little pocket stayed relatively sane.

The practical stuff matters too – there’s decent parking nearby, which anyone who’s driven in Cannes will tell you is worth its weight in gold. The check-in was straightforward, no fancy concierge service but everything you need. And here’s something I appreciated: the place feels authentically Cannes without the tourist markup. You’re close enough to walk to Palais des Festivals when you want that movie star experience, but you can also wander up toward Le Suquet for dinner at places where locals actually eat. The rating of 9 makes sense to me – it’s not trying to be a luxury palace, but for what it is, it really delivers. If you want to experience Cannes like someone who lives here rather than just passing through for the Instagram shots, this duplex gets it right.

Reviews

• Superb – Aleksandra from Serbia – 16 May 2023 (9/10)

  The apartment was very cozy and nice place to stay at, very peaceful in the evening. However it was very centrally located – close to the marche Forville, bakeries and the supermarkets, and also just a street above train and bus station if you want to visit something around. Everything is on a walking distance.
  
  What could be improved: We were coming late in the evening, we would appreciate if we had a roll of toilet paper and a small soap in the bathroom.
  There were also only small cooking dishes in the kitchen, but the owner provided us a pot immediately when we asked for it.

• Dla lubiących mieszkać w kamienicach i centrach miast. – Piotrw from Poland – 2 September 2023 (6/10)

  Wyposażenie apartamentu, wszystko nowe. Czystość, lokalizacja jeżeli ktoś lubi mieszkać w centrum.
  
  What could be improved: Apartament w starej części Cannes, kamienica chyba lata 70te. Bardzo mały, pietrowy, wszystko ściśnięte, raczej na 2 osoby niż 4 . Niestety ze względu na problem przy rezerwowaniu innego apartamentu musieliśmy na szybko zarezerwować ten. Nie było możliwości zameldowania po godz. 21.00. Gospodarz nie mógł przyjechać, musieliśmy jeden dzień nocować praktycznie w samochodzie. Booking po wyjaśnieniach zwrócił za nocleg. Bardzo ciężko ze znalezieniem miejsca do parkowania. Generalnie nie było źle dla osób które lubią mieszkać w centrum miast, jako opcja zastępcza ok.
