“We were a little bit disappointed”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 September 2011

The hotel has quite a central location, it is a sort of modern hotel right next to a casino. The hotel has a lovely beach and the view from the rooms is nice. I cannot complain about the beds, very comfortable and the rooms are big but I didn't like the overall room ambiance.
We were also not happy about the fact that the room was not ready until 2pm.

“A pleasant stay and a great location”

We booked a nice room with an amazing view on the beach. The restaurant right on the beach was fabulous. Breakfast, lunch and dinner were very good in terms of quality. The staff from the check in to the check out was very great and helpful. This hotel is a good choice to spend pleasant and relaxing holidays. The location is just fabulous.

“Lovely setting, good food and beautiful beach”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 August 2011

Booked the hotel as part of a package to visit Marineland/Acquasplash nearby. Loved the big spacious family room which had two huge double beds. No sea view but we didn't need to see anymore water by the time we got to the hotel! Lovely setting on the beach front with a pretty pier complete with 250 deck chairs along the beach. Remember to book a sun lounger in the high season or you could be disappointed! It was nice having breakfast with a view of the Cote D'Azur. Lunch was a bit hot under the canopy by the beach but staff were friendly for the most part, in particular the reception staff and the beach staff. The front desk girl in the lunch restaurant was terribly snooty :-( That was the only dampener. Everyone else seemed to be doing their best to please the guests.

Room Tip: If you want a sea view, you need to specify at time of reservation.

“Fantastic location..."dated" hotel”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 May 2011

Stayed here for the Cannes Film Festival. Hotel is located in the adorable little town of Juan Les Pins, at 20 minute drive to Cannes and a mere 5 minute drive to the famous Hotel Du Cap at Eden Roc. The hotel used to be Le Meridien, but it's obvious why it was not able to keep them name. The lobby is still decent, but the rooms and hallways feel very "dated" and need some improvement. We were given a beach side room and the view was spectacular so it's easy to overlook some of the flaws of the hotel. Service was quite good. We never ate in the hotel so I can't comment on that.

“Great location on beach - old fashioned facilities.”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 April 2011

person found this review helpful

The room facilities of this hotel were similar to a budget hotel. If you get a room within 15 metres of the lift it will wake you from 6.00 in the morning. After changing rooms to try and get further away this would have worked if someone hadn't decided to refill all the minibars at 7.15 in nearby rooms. Linen, towels, pillows were all old and and poor for the very start of the season. Toilet of second room wobbled and the door handle fell off on day two, and although left on the side was not fixed but placed back on in order to fall off again. The bathroom was stand in the bath and use of a flexi - hose shower which leaked all over the floor. The combination of drainage problems left this room with a distinct odour.
Breakfat was good in terms of quality of pastries and coffee, but cooked part was back to budget hotel. Happy friendly staff serving but overstretched.
On reception they were helpful and the beach was well organised. The house keeping side needs a complete shake up.
If thinking about paying summer season rates here I would opt instead to fly off to Club Med.
We chose this as it offered the best location in Juan les Pins. Unfortunately there is a sense of complacency that means that the basics are not right here. They were not ready for the start of the season and were still doing basic maintenance - painting panels as we sat having our breakfast less than 5 metres away. Can you believe one of the painters interupted our breakfast to ask if we had a match for his cigarette. I expected John Cleese to arrive and bat him around the head.

Dear Guest,

We were sorry to learn of your concerns with your recent stay and we would like to apologize for the disappointment you have expressed.

We were sorry to learn of your concerns with the state and the comfort of your room. We would like to apologize for all the inconveniences. Indeed, it is only through constructive criticism from our valuable guests that whenever shortfalls occur, immediate action can be taken to improve set standards and rectify shortcomings. You have my assurances that all your comments will be taken into consideration in order to improve the quality of our service and the comfort of our guests.

We were most concerned to read your comments regarding the ongoing maintenance works and we would like to apologize for the inconveniences this may have caused. We have during the winter period made many renovation works and particularly in our Restaurant La Frégate. Unfortunately, we were held up by bad weather conditions which obliged us to reorganize our Restaurants and beach offers. We are happy to inform you that all our works will be completed by the end of the month and we would be pleased to welcome our guests in our Restaurant overlooking the Lerins Islands and the Cap d’Antibes by the beginning of May.

We thank you for your support
Best regards.
