You’ll be staying right in the centre of Cannes in a quiet area behind the main train station, with its own shops, restaurants, and more.
You can easily reach major attractions such as the "Croisette" and its adjacent beach with many beach clubs, the main shopping street Rue d’Antibes with numerous stores, as well as the countless restaurants, the two cinemas, the Palais des Festivals, and the renowned 5-star hotels Martinez, Majestic Barrière, and the renovated Carlton are all easily accessible via three different underground pedestrian tunnels that run beneath the train station.
