What was good and what was bad?

GOOD
- Very attentive and smiling service: the service is truly exceptional from all the staff.
- Superb renovation.
- Very pleasant room with breathtaking view.
- Excellent breakfast (the vanilla flan shortcrust pastry is just to die for) and very good restaurant .
- The heated outdoor pool was open: what a pleasure to swim in November with sunny weather,
- Special Christmas events (gospel music in the lobby, mini skating rink for children in the garden, concerts in the lobby bar),
- Superb spa and fitness centre.
- Free laundry service (up to 3 pieces per day)



BAD
- Nothing. The legendary Carlton Cannes is simply a pure heaven!

Value for $ or IHG One Rewards Points? Would you return?
The hotel is not cheap indeed but the hotel is just superb, the view unbeatable and service great.
As well as the superb quality of the facilities, the remarkable quality of service is truly the Carlton's strong point.

And what a pleasure to leave Paris in the snow and arrive on the sun-drenched Côte d'Azur!
