Hotel Barriere Le Gray d'Albion

The hotel is extremely conveniently and well located, and fine for the price (I think everything in Cannes is really expensive in general). Our room was a decent size and well appointed, the bathroom was nice but small. The room and hotel in general was very clean and neat (apart from this really strange odor in our hallway; wasn't too much of an issue since it didn't get into the room). The breakfast was included in our rate and was the highlight of our stay each day. Service at breakfast was always very friendly and efficient. The buffet was relatively extensive and they could make you eggs any way you like, just ask. The main reason I'm knocking off 2 stars, and this was a really big issue for us, is that you cannot control the temperature in the guests rooms AT ALL. I have stayed in all sorts of hotels, inns, and B&Bs of all caliber, and have NEVER encountered this. It was so warm in our room that I didn't sleep very well the three nights we stayed there. Cannes was very hot and humid when we visited, and it was the worst going out for a walk, feeling sweaty/warm, and then returning to your room not being able to feel refreshed. They really need to fix this. I would not recommend this hotel for this reason alone.

Amazing hotel ,the breakfast area was lovely and the food was really good The location was close to shopping area and walking destine to La Croisette. Many thanks to Madam ARFI and all the reception & restaurant staff

Although not a palace standing on the croisette like its sister hotel the majestic, the gray still offer a decent stay. Its a 4 star hotel that really makes an effort to reach the standards of a 5 star, the service is very decent so is the private beach which in my opinion is better located than the majestic's. Pros: - good location (seconds away from the croisette) -convenient public parking connected to the hotel -decent effort to provide a good service -nice terrace for breakfast and dinner -good value Cons: - vis a vis - no pool All in all, a good hotel where i would take my family back.

We've stayed at this hotel in the last week of August 2017. I was very impressed with service; the check in agent takes you to your room explaining all amenities, we were immediately upgraded the room to a garden view that is more quiet and free soft drinks minibar. In room we found a bottle of wine and a welcome personalized letter from the hotel. Room service comes twice a day once to clean and in the evening to bring 2 bottles of water and chocolate, if you are not in the room at second visit they also straighten the bed one more time. The hotel is 3 minutes walk from the beach, you can use amenities from the sister hotel (such as pool since this hotel doesn't have one). They also have their own restaurant and private beach, the restaurant becomes a club at night which is quite neat to have drinks and listen/dance to live dj in the evening. Hotel is also 3 minutes walk from the train station which is convenient to take (35 minutes ride) if you are flying into Nice take the train from the St Augustin train station (10 minutes walk from the airport) for a very low fare of €5.50. Very pleased with this hotel, would definitely stay there again and recommend if you vacation in Cannes. All stores are right there too if you like to shop

Nice hotel with good rooms and friendly staff, close to beach and shopping area. Breakfast was great and amazing choice of items. Definitely recommend a stay one of the hotels not big and impersonal. Will be back soon!!
