Studio Léa

Hotel Description

You know what struck me first about Studio Léa? It’s tucked right on Rue Georges Clemenceau, which honestly is one of those streets where you feel like you’re actually in Cannes – not some tourist bubble. I mean, you’re literally a three-minute walk from the Palais des Festivals (yeah, where they do the film festival), but you’re also surrounded by those little French cafés where locals grab their morning coffee. The building itself has that classic Riviera charm – nothing flashy, but it’s got character. When I checked in, the staff actually remembered my name by day two, which is pretty rare these days.

The rooms are what you’d expect from a well-run 3-star – clean, functional, with that European efficiency thing going on. What I really appreciated was how quiet it gets at night, even though you’re right in the city center. The windows are actually decent quality, so you don’t get the usual street noise that plagues most downtown hotels. And honestly, the AC works properly, which… well, if you’ve stayed in older French hotels in summer, you know that’s not always a given. The bathrooms are compact but smartly designed – everything you need without feeling cramped. One thing though – if you’re the type who needs tons of closet space, pack light. It’s definitely more studio-style living than a sprawling hotel room.

Here’s what really sold me on the place: the location is just ridiculously good for exploring Cannes properly. You can walk to La Croisette in about five minutes, but you’re also perfectly positioned to wander up into Le Suquet (the old town) without dealing with the coastal crowds. There’s this little bakery called Boulangerie Julien literally around the corner – grab a pain au chocolat there in the morning, trust me. And if you need groceries or forgot something, there’s a Monoprix nearby that stays open later than you’d expect. Parking can be a bit of a puzzle if you’re driving, but there’s a public garage about two blocks away that’s not too brutal on the wallet. The 8.6 rating makes total sense to me – it’s not trying to be the Carlton or the Martinez, but for the price point and location, it delivers exactly what it promises. Perfect if you want to actually experience Cannes rather than just stay in a hotel that happens to be in Cannes, if that makes sense.

Reviews

• Exceptional – Michael from United States – 13 September 2024 (10/10)

  The location is wonderful. An easy/fast walk to the marina. A small laundry machine is within the apartment. Air conditioning works well. Nice coffee maker. Good shower water temperature and pressure.
  
  What could be improved: Everything was good

• Superb – Maximilian from Sweden – 2 July 2025 (9/10)

  Had great amenities
  
  What could be improved: As a tall person, maybe not the most comfortable way to get into bed as it is cramped in the bed nook, and my head touched the ceiling in the shower, but otherwise great

• Overall an enjoyable stay and great value for money. Would recommend! – Emi from Canada – 28 July 2024 (9/10)

  Location was fantastic, very central but still on a quiet street. Very easy to access to and from the train station and walking distance to all central Cannes.
  
  What could be improved: Neighbours could be loud in the evenings (not a fault of the booking but something to note!)

• Pleasant – Aleska from Ireland – 13 December 2024 (6/10)

  Location great, only came for few days with friend, the room is tiny, if you unfold the bed it takes the whole room , we are not fussy and enjoyed our stay, we had everything we need.
  
  What could be improved: Bed wasn't comfortable to sleep and bed set wasn't in good condition ( old, well used ) would be nice to change time to time .

• Bien – Sandrine from France – 30 April 2025 (9/10)

  L’emplacement proche du centre.

• Отлично – Dmytrenko from Ukraine – 16 August 2024 (10/10)

  Чисто,хорошее расположение,персонал быстро отвечает на вопросы
  
  What could be improved: Рядом дорога

• Very good – Arianna from Italy – 9 August 2024 (8/10)

  La posizione era veramente top a pochi metri e minuti dalla spiaggia e in centro.
  C’era tutto il necessario per una settimana
  
  What could be improved: Il letto sul soppalco troppo costretto

• Soggiorno a Cannes presso studio Lea – Patrizia from Italy – 24 July 2025 (8/10)

  la posizione della camera. La camera che pur essendo piccola in 2 e non di più ci si può stare aggiustandosi. La mini lavatrice e' eccezionale. Non c'è un balcone per stendere ma un filo in bagno che si tira e si stende qualcosina.
  
  What could be improved: La location fuori la stanza, probabilmente la devono ristrutturare. L armadio è praticamente inesistente. 4 grucce non di più. Sopra nel soppalco non si può dormire. Pericoloso per bambini possono sicuramente cadere dai gradini alti per salire e per gli adulti non si può stare perché il soffitto avrà si e no 50 cm dal letto.

• Vacanza corta solo 3 giorni ma di puro relax. Siamo stati bene – Lombardi from Italy – 10 January 2024 (7/10)

  posizione centrale e comoda
  
  What could be improved: tutto ok

• Superb – Swales from United Kingdom – 16 July 2025 (9/10)
