New apartment in Forville with balcony Overview

First Impressions

The New apartment in Forville with balcony sits right in the heart of what locals consider the best part of Cannes — and honestly, they’re not wrong. When I first walked up Rue Roland Garros, I was struck by how quiet this street feels despite being so close to everything that matters. This three-star property doesn’t try to be flashy, but there’s something genuinely appealing about its straightforward approach to comfort. The neighborhood has a distinctly residential character that sets it apart from more touristy areas.

The Perfect Cannes Location

You know what’s brilliant about this spot? You’re literally steps from the Forville Market, which means you can grab fresh produce and local specialties without dealing with tourist crowds. I mean, having that perfect location score of 10.0 isn’t just marketing speak — you can walk to the Palais des Festivals in about ten minutes, hit the beach in five, and still feel like you’re staying somewhere authentic. The Croisette is close enough when you want the glamour, but far enough that you’re not paying Croisette prices for everything. This positioning gives you the best of both worlds.

The Space Itself

The apartment layout actually works really well for couples — there’s enough space to spread out without feeling like you’re rattling around in something too big. The balcony (which, let’s be honest, is why you book this place) catches morning light beautifully, and it’s perfect for that essential French ritual of coffee and people-watching. The kitchen is compact but functional — I managed to put together some decent meals with market finds, though you’ll probably want to eat out most of the time anyway. The overall design maximizes comfort in a thoughtful way.

Practical Matters

Here’s something that’ll save you headaches: they have parking on site, which is basically gold in this part of Cannes. I’ve stayed in places where finding a spot meant circling blocks for twenty minutes, so this alone makes the stay less stressful. The building itself is well-maintained without being precious about it, and the whole setup feels more like borrowing a friend’s place than staying in a typical hotel room. The neighborhood gets lively during market hours but settles into a pleasant residential rhythm by evening. These practical touches make a real difference.

Why Guests Love It

What really works here is the balance — you get that authentic Cannes neighborhood experience without sacrificing comfort or convenience. Couples seem to particularly appreciate having their own space with that balcony for morning coffee or evening wine, plus the freedom to pop down to the market or wander to a local restaurant without feeling like tourists. The location means you can experience Cannes like someone who actually lives here, which honestly beats the hotel bubble experience every time. It’s not trying to be something it’s not, and that straightforward approach really pays off. This authenticity is what makes it special.

Travelers should reserve a hotel in Cannes at least two months ahead of their visit to ensure availability and secure better rates, especially during the peak May festival season when the city hosts its world-famous cinema celebrations.
