Le Cavendish

Located in the celebrity-laden town of Cannes along the French Riviera, the lovely Le Cavendish is a stylish boutique retreat with just 34 rooms that ooze charm and grace. Tucked behind a classic belle époque façade is where you will find a dramatic marble staircase, original parquet floors and a splash of contemporary élan mixed with important traditional appointments. The collection of bright and airy rooms reveals a color palette pulled from the fields of Provence - with lilac, blue, olive and golden tones offset against whitewashed walls. All the modern amenities are well represented, from wireless internet access to convenient mini bars stocked with an assortment of snacks and beverages.

What sets Hotel Le Cavendish apart from other establishments is its warm and friendly service. The owners welcome their guests each morning for a gourmet breakfast of warm breads, pastries, homemade jams and rich, bold flavored coffee. In the evening, turndown service includes lavender water spritzed atop your pillow for a restful night. Each night the owners host an open bar in the cozy lounge, where roomy arm chairs, red-lacquered tables and thick crimson curtains create a dramatic and delicious effect. The hotel's location is equally fabulous and is just a two-minute walk from the famed Boulevard de la Croisette and luxury boutiques that line Rue d'Antibes. Of course, the beach is just a sandal-toss away, populated with Europe's beautiful people. Each corner of Cannes yields yet another fabulous shop, restaurant or brasserie where you can pass the time people watching and sipping frothy lattes. Enjoy it all with Hotel Le Cavendish.
