In town for mipim 2013. The good bits is helpful staff. Showed me where to watch champions league matches, where to eat past 10pm etc... the bad bits: the location is 20 mns to palais des festivals. Rooms are beyond tired. This hotel should not have stars until serious money is spent renovating it.

In town with another couple for the Film Festival just when all the prices are at the peak. Found the Palace online as one of the more reasonable (Ibut still expensive). A short walk to the main boardwalk and most of the activities and restaurants, so the location is nice. It looks like they are trying to renovate the interior,... More

Have just returned from this holiday, if Fawlty Towers offered coach holidays then they would be like this one! About the only thing that Shearings did well was handling the transfer of baggage at the changeover points...we had only one driver, no co-driver, no courier and no on board refreshmenst or audio-visual entertainment as promised in the brochure. When we... More

This hotel primary asset is its location. 3 mins walk from Le Croisette makes it ideal for everyone not keen on paying premium dollars for a room at Carlton, Martinez and the others along the beach. This hotel is suitable for families as it is located in a quiet street, with little traffic and nightlife. The rooms are ok, but... More

Firstly, the staff at the Cannes Palace were fantastic. Really friendly and willing to assist. However, I would not stay again for several reasons. The Internet is really expensive (ten Euros for an hour!) and it did not work, meaning I had to work in the reception. The breakfast was disgusting. There was hardly any staff for the restaurant so... More

When this hotel was booked for me by work, I was horrified when I read some of the reviews. However, the rooms may be in need of a refurb, but they were clean, large, with a comfy bed and powerful shower. Most importantly it was possibly the quietest hotel I've ever stayed in, being in a quiet residential street, but... More

I was expecting a four star hotel and so, beyond the flash reception, was disappointed. For over 200 euros a night, it should be a lot better. However, it is clean and quiet in mainly a residential area and the staff seemed genuinely helpful. Stayed there on business but wouldn't be paying those rates for a personal stay as not... More

We visited Canned in October 2010 for MIPCOM festival so it was a busy time for business and for that reason most hotels in Cannes will be quite expensive and CAnnes Palace is the best option if you are on a cheaper budget. Some of the rooms are smaller than others but there are some rooms that do have kitchennettes... More
