Studio Vue Mer au coeur du Suquet

Hotel Description

Honestly, when I first saw the address on Rue Panisse, I wasn’t sure what to expect – I mean, it’s tucked right into the heart of Le Suquet, which is basically the old town part of Cannes that most tourists rush through to get to the beach. But you know what? That turned out to be exactly what made this studio so perfect.

The place itself is small (it’s called a studio for a reason), but whoever designed it actually gets how to use space. The sea view isn’t just marketing fluff – you really can see the Mediterranean from the window, and honestly, waking up to that blue every morning never got old. What I loved most though was how quiet it stays despite being right in the middle of everything. Le Suquet has this village-within-a-city feel, especially early in the morning when you can hear the church bells from the nearby Église Notre-Dame d’Espérance before the day crowds arrive. The narrow cobblestone streets around Rue Panisse are steep – and I mean properly steep – so pack light if you’re planning to walk everywhere, but that’s also what keeps the area feeling authentic rather than touristy.

The location is actually genius once you figure it out. You’re literally a five-minute walk down to the Palais des Festivals (where they do the film festival), maybe ten minutes to the main shopping on Rue d’Antibes, but up here in Le Suquet you get those little local cafés and that incredible view from the castle ruins at the top. I spent way more time than planned just wandering these old streets – there’s something about the way the light hits the pastel-colored buildings in the late afternoon that makes you understand why artists have always loved this coast. The studio itself feels like someone’s carefully curated pied-à-terre rather than a typical rental. Everything works properly (which isn’t always a given in these old buildings), the wifi is solid, and there’s enough kitchen space to make coffee and light meals, though honestly with all the restaurants within walking distance, I barely cooked. Fair warning about parking though – it’s Cannes, so street parking is basically a competitive sport, but there are paid lots nearby if you’re driving. The 9.7 rating makes total sense once you’re there; it’s not luxury in the marble-and-chandeliers way, but it’s that perfect combination of location, character, and actually being comfortable to live in for a few days.

  Wonderful apartment, perfectly located on the most charming street of Cannes’ historic center. Excellent restaurants just in front of the entrance, but very quiet in the apartment itself, which is very tastefully decorated.
  
  What could be improved: Nothing.

• Marion from France – 18 May 2025 (10/10)

  Logement parfaitement soigné, très bien aménagé. Beaucoup de soins et de petites attentions de la part de l’hôte. L’accueil est 5 étoiles ! Il est aussi situé dans le coeur du quartier le plus charmant de Cannes à 7 min à pied du palais des festivals et de la croisette. La vue est vraiment jolie, appartement lumineux et bien pensé.
  
  What could be improved: Rien à redire, tout était parfait.
