Hotel Residence Park and Suites Cannes Croisette
The modern 4-star Park & Suites Hotel is situated in the centre of Cannes less than 5 minutes’ walk from the seafront, with a selection of cafés and restaurants close by. The hotel offers spacious rooms, and has a bar, breakfast room, outdoor swimming-pool, sun bathing terrace and snack hut. An added bonus is that all rooms are suite style and feature a small kitchenette that you will be able to use. There is also an option to upgrade to a balcony room overlooking the outdoor swimming pool and sun terrace area - these rooms get most of the sun late into the afternoon.

The weather was perfect! The free afternoon and day were a very good idea as it enabled us to do our own thing. The trips you had organised were to some colourful and picturesque places making for an unforgettable holiday. Being a bed and breakfast only tour gave us a chance to eat in some lovely local bars and restaurants and to soak up even more of the local atmosphere. Terry was an excellent guide, very informative and he has endless patience. Overall a great holiday.

The hotel was excellent in a great position with a lovely pool and spacious rooms. I enjoyed all the tours and Cannes was fabulous as glamorous as the hype suggests a great tour. Terry was very good and we managed to catch our train the Cannes even though the Eurostar was delayed by the skin of our teeth!
