There are some minor maintenance problems, the soap holder is not well fixed to the wall, the window is a little hard to close, few of the switchs are moving a little. I only had the room of the suite (so no LR). I paid for a classic room so a nice virtuoso upgrade. (No status otherwise). May I ask you how did you end up in these suites ? An upgrade or a regular booking ?.
Good questions. Yes, how you end up in a renovated suite?
This is more and more an hotel for RAs who become upgraded and guests who pay for those suites. I know some kind of rooms from stays in the past years. Furniture and carpets tired, sanitary equipment desastrous, one time I had to change room because water came down from the ceiling.
Renovations have been postponed some times in the past years, owner changed, I think it is a Lebanese now. Grand Hyatt next door (Martinez) is going to be renovated for sure short term, Majestic Barriere has been since some time.
I am am of course happy if it doesn´t close, to be able to stay at Carlton Cannes on cash or reward stays, no matter, but I doubt that this situation can go on forever. Legends can die also.
