Studio André – Palais & plage, clim

Hotel Description

Look, I’ve stayed in a lot of places in Cannes over the years, and Studio André honestly caught me off guard – in the best way possible. When you’re climbing up to the fourth floor on Rue du Commandant André (there’s an elevator, thank god), you might wonder what you’ve gotten yourself into. But once you step inside, the whole vibe shifts. The air conditioning actually works – and I mean really works, not that half-hearted attempt you get at some places along the Riviera.

What struck me first was how they’ve managed to make a studio feel spacious without any fancy tricks. The setup is just smart, you know? Everything has its place, and honestly, after spending days wandering around the Palais des Festivals or lounging on the beaches, you don’t need much more than a comfortable bed and that blessed AC. The location is where this place really shines though – you’re literally a few minutes’ walk from both the main action and the beach. I mean, you can grab your morning coffee on Rue d’Antibes, hit the sand at Plage du Midi, then swing by the Palais for whatever’s happening, all without breaking a sweat or dealing with the nightmare that is Cannes parking during festival season.

The neighborhood itself has this nice mix of locals and visitors, which I always prefer over those touristy bubbles. There’s a decent bakery just around the corner – the kind where the woman behind the counter will give you a look if you don’t say bonjour properly, but makes incredible croissants. The building can get a bit lively in the evenings (thin walls, typical old French construction), but nothing that drowns out the distant sound of waves if you crack the window at night. What really sold me on the place was the little details – proper hangers in the closet, a shower with decent water pressure, and outlets where you actually need them. Plus, the building’s entrance feels secure without being stuffy, which matters when you’re hauling camera gear or shopping bags up and down. For the price point and that 8.9 rating, Studio André delivers exactly what it promises: a clean, comfortable base in the heart of Cannes where you can actually get some rest between all the chaos this city throws at you.

Reviews

• Daniela from France – 1 September 2024 (9/10)

  Perfect location so close to the beach, bars and center
  Definitely coming back soon

• Yurii from Ukraine – 20 August 2024 (8/10)

  Excellent location, there are many restaurants, shops nearby, the beaches are very close, good new appliances, the air conditioner saved us from the heat
  
  What could be improved: Cleanliness: when we arrived, all the cups and the sink were dirty, there was a lot of dust in certain places in the kitchen, a little dampness in the corner of the shower, the bed linen was in pellets, scale in the kettle. (I’m adding some photos, but they don’t show it as well as in real life)
  It may also be important to someone that there is no elevator, and the apartment is located at the very top of a 4-floor building

• Agne from France – 9 August 2024 (9/10)

  Très bien
  
  What could be improved: Rien

• Lala from France – 2 August 2024 (9/10)

  Studio exactement comme sur les photos.
  La douche peu spacieuse mais tout de même bien agencée.
  
  Emplacement parfait!!
  
  Et des petits attentions comme le café, thé et les accessoires de bain ont été appreciés.
  
  What could be improved: Dernier étage de l’immeuble sans ascenseur mais ce n’est qu’un detail

• Cla from France – 12 July 2024 (9/10)

  La localisation est parfaite, le studio est très bien équipé, la clim et la machine à lavé sont vraiment un plus.
  Le studio est très agréable et joliement décoré, plutôt spacieux grâce à la mezzanine.
  Très bonne communication avec l'hôte, très disponible pour nous guider à l'arrivée.
  La boîte a clé est très appréciable.
  
  What could be improved: L' espace commun ( l'entrée et cage d'escalier) a rafraîchir, je me doute que cela relève plus de la co propriété, mais n'est pas représentatif du studio.

• Livia from Romania – 24 May 2024 (9/10)

  Locatia centrala, excelenta, 5 min de mers pe jos pana la
  Palatul Festivalului de Film, toate dotarie, spatios. Apartamentul fiind la ultimul etaj, are o scara interioara care permitea accesul la zona unde este patul dublu f confirtabil. Un plus il constituie si canapeauna care este extensibila, astfel incat, acest apartament eate util si pentru 4 persoane sau o familie cu 2 copii. Desi apartamentul este intr-o zona activa aproape nonstop, odata inchise geamurie, e liniste deplina, nu se mai aude deloc zgomotul stradal.

• Simone from Italy – 10 February 2025 (8/10)

  La posizione é memorabile 20 metri dalla croisette cosa dire d’altro
  
  What could be improved: Troverei una soluzione per parcheggiare economica x gli avventori

• Marina from Kazakhstan – 28 October 2024 (9/10)

  Очень разумно и комфортно устроенная маленькая студия. Есть все необходимое для нескольких дней проживания. Фотографиям соответствует. Бесконтактное общение с вежливым консьержем.
  
  What could be improved: Квартира на последнем этаже, лестница довольно крутая, с большим багажом было бы сложно. Окна без плотных штор, много света рано утром.

• Pilot from France – 16 August 2024 (9/10)

  Emplacement parfait, clim fonctionnel, cuisine fonctionne lit confortable

• Svetlana from Belarus – 21 December 2024 (9/10)
