Categories

Cleanliness
9.2
Repeatedly described as clean, neat and well cared for; one review noted a sloppily repaired bathroom but overall cleanliness is praised.
Service
7.4
Majority of reviews praise very helpful, attentive and friendly staff (director Odile mentioned by name), but a serious privacy breach (staff entering without knocking twice and refusing to apologize) and one report of absent/poor staff lowered this score.
Location
9.7
Consistently highlighted as excellent — steps from the Croisette, beach, train station and central Cannes; very convenient for festivals and sightseeing.
Room Quality
9.2
Rooms described as spacious, stylish, comfortable with good beds and soundproofing; generally very positive remarks about comfort and decor.
Amenities
7.6
Basic but generally sufficient: working air conditioning, quiet rooms; downsides include no lift (stairs to reception), simple public areas, and at least one issue accessing the included wellness area.
Value for Money
9
Several guests note good rapport qualité-prix and appreciated services like breakfast delivered to the room; overall seen as good value for central Cannes.
Food and Beverage
8
Breakfast and F&B generally adequate (some guests had breakfast delivered to room), but a few asked for more variety or additional items.
Overall Experience
8.7
Predominantly positive stays (quiet, clean, friendly staff, great location) but overall score is tempered by at least one severe negative experience involving privacy and staff conduct.

Fijne verblijf maar helaas geen lift
Pros:

Een prima werkende airco, geluidsdichte kamer (heel donker om in te slapen) en het bed (king size) Wij hadden de superior tweepersoonskamer!

Cons:

De entree van het hotel heeft twee trappen om hoog om bij de receptie te komen, geen lift. Je moet in het bad douchen dus niet ideaal voor mensen slecht te been.

Avoid - As someone who has never bothered to write a review
Cons:

Staff didn’t knock and walked in on me naked. Refused to apologize. Woman was incredibly rude and argumentative. It occurred twice. They didn’t knock twice. Naked twice. Very frustrating, strange, and violating.
Essentially, it is a motel, outdated and off-putting with no warmth. No real apologizes. They were doing “work” on this tired bathroom. The repair was done very sloppily and a sign of poor handwork, as well as cheap owners.

Pros:

L'accueil de madame ODILE était parfait et très sympathique. Le rapport qualité prix est très bon. La situation de l'hôtel dans CANNES est idéale. L'hôtel ne dispose pas de parking mais parking de la ville "STEPHANIE" tout proche (Attention limite de hauteur 1,9).

Cons:

Rien
