Studio Jasmin – calme charmant clim Palais & plage

Hotel Description

Look, I’ve stayed in plenty of places around Cannes, and Studio Jasmin caught me off guard in the best way possible. You know that feeling when you find a spot that just gets it right? This little studio on Boulevard de la République – honestly, I almost walked past it the first time because it’s tucked into this typical Cannes building, nothing flashy from the street. But once you’re up on the third floor, everything changes.

The thing about this place is the name actually tells you everything you need to know. It really is calm, which is saying something when you’re smack in the center of Cannes. I mean, you’re literally steps from all the action – the Palais des Festivals is maybe a seven-minute walk, and the beaches are even closer – but somehow the noise just doesn’t penetrate up there. The air conditioning works properly too (and trust me, you’ll need it in summer), plus there’s this charming quality that’s hard to pin down. Maybe it’s the way the light hits in the afternoon, or how the space feels bigger than it actually is. The host clearly knows what they’re doing – everything from the linens to the little touches just feels… considered, I guess.

What really sold me was discovering the neighborhood. La Californie isn’t where most tourists end up, but it’s where you want to be if you actually want to feel like you’re living in Cannes for a few days rather than just visiting. There’s this great little bakery two blocks down that opens at 6:30 AM – perfect if you’re dealing with jet lag and want proper coffee before the crowds hit. The beach access is ridiculously easy too, none of that fighting through the main drags near the Martinez or Carlton. You can literally grab your towel and be on sand in under five minutes. Parking was surprisingly manageable (for Cannes, anyway), and the building itself has that old-school French charm without feeling run-down. I stayed during the film festival season – well, sort of during it, right at the tail end – and while the city was still buzzing, this felt like my own little retreat. The 9-star rating makes total sense once you’re there; it’s one of those places where every detail works together. Not luxury in the obvious way, but luxury in the sense that everything just… functions exactly as it should.

Cannes hotels range from charming boutique properties in the historic Le Suquet district to elegant palace hotels and modern luxury accommodations along La Croisette Boulevard.

  Liegt direkt neben einem Supermarkt
  Liegt sehr nah am Bahnhof und Strand, trotzdem ruhigere Gegend
  
  What could be improved: Ein Duschvorhang oder so wäre praktisch gewesen, das Wasser ist nach dem Duschen oft im ganzen Bad gewesen
