Railbookers - Feb 2007

A top 4* in Cannes and my personal favourite. Classy retro 70's style with a personal touch. Sea view rooms a must

Fairmont Monte Carlo

Comfortable, understated elegance with amazing sea views. The attentive staff and beautiful surrounding cannot fail to make you feel relaxed.

Railbookers - Apr 2008

Relax by the rooftop pool with a Pina Colada, listen to the live music in the piano bar or catch some rays on your own private balcony overlooking the sea. This hotel is pure heaven!
