Palais 5min Luxury&Cinema Studio

Hotel Description

Look, I’ll be honest – when I first saw “Palais 5min Luxury&Cinema Studio” I thought it sounded a bit gimmicky, you know? But this little gem tucked away on Impasse Bergerie actually delivers on its promise. The cinema studio part isn’t just marketing fluff either – there’s genuinely a projector setup that transforms the space into your own private screening room, which honestly became my favorite feature after a long day wandering the Croisette. The location is what really sold me though. You’re literally a five-minute stroll from all the Cannes madness – the beach, the festival palace, those ridiculously expensive boutiques on Rue d’Antibes – but Impasse Bergerie itself is this quiet little side street where you can actually get some sleep. I mean, during festival season all bets are off, but most of the year it’s surprisingly peaceful.

The studio itself has that sleek, modern vibe without feeling sterile – think clean lines but with enough personality that you don’t feel like you’re staying in a showroom. What I appreciated most was the attention to practical details that only matter when you’re actually living somewhere for a few days. The kitchenette is small but functional (perfect for morning coffee and those overpriced groceries from Monoprix), and there’s decent storage space, which you’d be surprised how many places skimp on. The bathroom’s compact but well-designed – they clearly thought about how real people move through the space. One thing worth noting: if you’re bringing a lot of luggage, the entrance is a bit narrow, but it’s manageable. The check-in process was smooth, and the hosts actually gave useful local tips, not just the standard tourist brochure stuff.

What really sets this place apart is how it captures that Cannes energy without the astronomical price tag of the palace hotels along the waterfront. You get the luxury feel – good linens, quality fixtures, that cinema setup I mentioned – but you’re paying for the experience, not the marble lobby and army of concierges. The 8.6 rating makes sense when you consider what you’re getting for the money. It’s not perfect – the space is definitely cozy rather than spacious, and during peak season you’ll hear some street noise – but it hits this sweet spot between boutique hotel and vacation rental that works really well for Cannes. Plus, being in the city center means you can walk to dinner instead of dealing with the nightmare that is summer parking around here. If you’re looking for somewhere stylish and practical without the festival palace prices, this little studio genuinely delivers on its promise.

Reviews

• Iryna from Ukraine – 28 May 2025 (9/10)

  This apartment is an absolute gem in Cannes — beautifully designed, elegant, and full of warmth. Everything is made with great taste and attention to detail, and the moment you walk in, you feel completely at home.
  
  The host, Olena, is simply wonderful. She’s incredibly kind, always available, and truly goes above and beyond to make your stay perfect. She offered plenty of helpful tips, was always just a message away, and even helped with things that weren’t directly related to the apartment. Her generosity and sincerity made a huge difference — it felt more like visiting a good friend than just renting a place.
  
  The location is absolutely unbeatable: only 4–5 minutes from the Palais des Festivals, which is amazing if you’re attending the Cannes Film Festival or working around it. And in general, the apartment is right in the heart of Cannes — you really can’t ask for more.
  
  A special thank you to Olena for the thoughtful touches — like the mini-bar she left for me — and for her constant support. I’ve stayed in many apartments in Cannes over the years, and this is by far the best experience I’ve had.
  
  Highly, highly recommended — it’s a true treasure and absolutely worth every euro. Thank you, Olena! 💛

  The most I loved the professionalism of host. All the informations I received from Elena went very helpful. I recommend this place to everyone. Apartment is very nice and confortable. Everything was perfect and very close to the Palance of Festival.

• Janice from United Kingdom – 17 March 2024 (9/10)

  Excellent location and very near to the Croisette. The host had thought about everything to make our stay comfortable. I was also impressed with the midday check-out and 2pm check-in.

• Gary from China – 2 November 2023 (9/10)

  The apartment was located in the heart of Cannes

• Viktoria from Italy – 21 October 2023 (9/10)

  Small apartment that has everything you need, kitchen, bathroom well equipped. Products of high quality (e.g. towel, electric devices). Bed was super comfortable, which to me is always the most important. The apartment even has a cute little balcony. Location is very central and easy to reach from train station. The landlord very friendly, flexible and fast responding. Can recommend and would come back any time.
  
  What could be improved: In the morning there was a lot of noise, doors banging, etc. from the other apartments on the same floor.

• Jozsef from Hungary – 10 September 2023 (9/10)

  The location is excellent and the studio has a very unique style. Elena was really helpful and precise with every detail. Everything was perfect we would definitely come back!:)

• Linda from France – 9 September 2023 (9/10)

  Certainly has the wow factor when you walk in..and all the linens and kitchenware are high end..the cute little terrace was a bonus..as indeed was the unexpected welcome gift of Prosecco to drink there..thank you!Location excellent for restaurants,shops and all the sights and smells of the old town especially the wonderful Forville market.Communication with the host was very good.We found this the perfect place for a short stay in central Cannes.
  
  What could be improved: Perhaps some thought for functionality as it is a tiny studio..eg the bed settee takes up half the room and is not very comfortable..!

• Mónika from Belgium – 13 August 2023 (9/10)

  The studio apartment has very stylish and modern interior with new furnitures and equipements. In the kitchen we found everything to prepare basic dishes. The apartment has relatively small size, but it has very practical layout. The location is just perfect, city center is very-very close. Elena, the host is very kind and helpful, and she helped both during our preparation and our stay. The provided coffee capsules made perfect mornings.
  We highly recommend this apartment to couples who wants to explore Cannes and its neighbourhood.
