Plein coeur Cannes – 4 couchages

Hotel Description

Look, I’ll be honest – when I first walked up to Plein coeur Cannes on Rue du Vingt Quatre Aout, I wasn’t expecting much from a 3-star place. But you know what? Sometimes the best finds are the ones that surprise you. This little gem sits right in the heart of Cannes, and I mean *right* in the heart – you’re literally a two-minute walk from the Palais des Festivals where all the film festival madness happens. The street itself is one of those narrow, typically French roads that feels authentically Cannes without being touristy fake, if that makes sense.

The apartment (because that’s really what this is – a proper 4-person setup, not just hotel rooms) actually feels like staying at a friend’s place who happens to have incredible taste and location sense. The space is smartly designed – I mean, they’ve managed to fit everything you need without that cramped feeling you get in so many European city accommodations. What really got me was how quiet it stays despite being so central. You’d think with all the restaurants and bars around (and trust me, there are some fantastic ones within a block), you’d be dealing with noise all night, but the windows do their job well. The 9 rating honestly makes sense once you’re settled in – it’s not luxury in the flashy sense, but it’s that kind of thoughtful comfort that makes you want to extend your stay.

Here’s the thing that’ll matter to you practically speaking: the location is unbeatable for actually experiencing Cannes rather than just checking it off a list. You can walk to the famous Croisette in about five minutes, but you’re also perfectly positioned to duck into those little side streets where locals actually eat and shop. The morning market at Marché Forville is close enough that you can grab fresh ingredients if you want to use the kitchen (which, by the way, is actually functional – not just a mini-fridge with delusions). Parking can be a bit of a dance around here, like anywhere in central Cannes, but there are options within a reasonable walk. During festival season, well… good luck with that, but honestly, during Cannes Film Festival, you’re not driving anywhere anyway. The rest of the year, it’s manageable. What really sold me on this place was how it strikes that perfect balance – you’re in the thick of everything when you want to be, but you’ve got a genuine retreat to come back to, not just another anonymous hotel room.

• Chia-hua from Taiwan – 13 November 2024 (9/10)

  It's a very cozy and lovely apartment in a perfect location. Fully furnished with all kinds of kitchen utensils as well. It's only 5min walk to Palais which is a good feature for people attending the exhibition or festival in Cannes. This apartment is also very close to the train station, department store, shopping area, and there's a variety of restaurants in the neighborhood.
