The design of the hotel is absolutely fabulous! Very original! You can even choose your style between the five floors wich represent the five continents. The "decor" is carefully planed to match the feeling of Asia, America, Afica, Oceania & Europe (even different scents to match the "ambiance!)but still, it has a very nice overall style.

Arrived about 9pm, checked into my room on the first floor. Asked for a quiet room and found that I had been placed above the bar with loud bass music pumping through the floor. I asked to be moved, but was told that the hotel was full and that the music would be finished by 11:30 pm. I came back to the hotel after dinner, and the music was indeed off by 11:30.

I have stayed 3 nights there. The service was very bad. i wouldn't mind if i was in a 2 star hotel but this is supposed to have a good level of service. the design is absolutely tasteless, i was very disappointed. it looked good from the website though...i won;t go there again. i'll go back to the Carlton or the Martinez, at least it's top quality service.

I could tell from previous reviews that this was the kind of place you either love or hate! As a family with teenage kids we loved it. It's all about design and image and yes, its expensive (It's Cannes, in August, 50m from the beach!!!). We were on the Europe floor: the room was small but very nicely accessorised, with cushions, pictures and flip-flops in the bathroom. My only criticism would be shortage of drawer space and no chairs for the balcony. The restaurant food was very good (we ate at the beach restaurant) and as expensive as anywhere similar in Cannes. The staff were very friendly and helpful and the room was serviced twice daily. the rooftop pool is beautifully laid out although small and lougers were at a premium

Arriving at the Savoy Hotel, the first impression you get is that you've arrived at an Indian-themed hotel. The lobby is decked out in shades of fuschia and the staff is dressed the part. After checking in, you realize that the theme has to do only with the Mahatma restaurant located adjacent to the lobby. The Savoy is exceptionally well located, just one block off La Croisette. It is behind the famous Carlton Intercontinental, and the windows literally do overlook the back of the Carlton. No fear though, a little tilt of the head to the right and you're looking at the Mediterranean. Rooms are very comfortable, about average-sized for an American hotel which is large by European standards. The beds are nice and there are full bathrooms. Our room didn't have a safe, but there was one in the lobby. Having breakfast brought up to our room every morning was wonderful, with warm croissants, fruit and coffee. Overall, a comfortable and pleasant stay.

simpy awful, DO NOT GO! the only redeeming features of the hotel was the beach- for which there was a charge, and the location, the breakfast was poor and the themes were tacky, the hallways were dark and gloomy, not what i would expect for a 4* hotel. they had tried to produce a individual hotel but the result was a cross between a boudoir and a zoo

We have just returned from eleven nights in the south of france to which we spent 7 nights at the 3.14 in cannes.The first impresion of the hotel was quite good with a very modern reception but very different.When we were shown to our room level 2 afrique (each floor has a different theme to it being continents).This level is very dark and sometimes quite difficult to see.Also the lift has flashing lights on the roof which is a bit tacky.Now to the room when we first entered the room we noticed several stains on the brown carpet and also a large cigarette burn.There was also a burn on the bathroom door.These are all things you don't expect to see in a four star hotel.Also the balcony looked onto a brick wall which isn't the best of views.When we informed reception they sayed they were fully booked and there was nothing they could do.Also the pool area is quite small so you have to be up early to get a sun lounger.Then on one occasion there were no towels available at the pool as someone in the laundry forgot to wash them.My overall opinion of the hotel is it should never be a four star hotel and the rooms could do with some renovation.Also your room is not cleaned to very late in the afternoon.The one good thing is the singer in the bar who is fantastic.

This Hotel is really incredible. It is absolutely concept as a machine to steel money from the visitors and make money for the owners! But the problem is not about the money at all!If you probably visit Cannes you don't want to have a "saving money vacation", the real big problem is that place is abslotely ------ up! i just leave the decor, it is not my cup of tea endeed, but you know, taste is taste.....anyway if I have to define it I would say that its style want be different just because it must be different without any concept behind or any coerence between the thousends kitchs things placed all over around mixed together which make you fell like to be onto Bordello with any style... The massive problem is that those people do not absolutely know the meaning of Art of Hospitality. All the young and non-expert staff seems to be there not for working but as part of a window's shop, than bored and very badly trained! If you ask for a suggestion about restaurants or things to do in Cannes they won't be able to help you anyway and them english is very poor. If you have any problem the Manager is never there (probably busy getting tanned on the beach) and than you have to explain the matter to these guys who must be very frustrated and feed up finding themself managing a load of complainse every day! The room's size is anacettable and the bathroom is like a closet. The chambermaids sometimes forget to clean the room becuase they are all the day busy chatting and making confusion on the corridor (lukcy if they place in front of your door while you sleep!!!). For 2 hours of Internet connection we have been charged of 30 euro!....of course only because we had our own pc otherwise we needed to go pilgriming and pick the closest connection in the Town! The beach is funny becuase it would be considerated a cool place but is full of very arrogant people and very laud childers who make the beach looks like a market on the street. Very expensive to get a sun bed cause it will cost you 15 euro and the beach close at 6 pm but they start to remove things at half past five....even your peronal staff you leave the place for a while. The roof pool is the top! They covered a regular swimming pool with some very plastic looking rocks which actually are in very light plastic!Very interesting if I booked in Eurodisney, but not for a "want to be Luxury Hotel." I have seen with my eyes my unhappy people complaining at the terrible looking desk where you must screen becuase of the screening parrots located located behind the desk...doesn't matter if everyone hate them for the noise and the stink!THEY ARE COOL AND NICE ALL RIGHT?!?? I have been told that the owner of this hotel belongs even a Casino or more than one in Cannes.....my question is: why they don't keeping managing Casinos?? I would finish my speach saying that this is not a cool place at all, is not stylish and is very taky and heavy. According to my experience there in no reason to stay in this place unless you don't want to break up with your partner for good!.... If you will ever visit Cannes stay definately somewhere else for the same money you can get much more in terms of Service, Space, Kindness, Professionality and Respect. This is a typical place which attract youngs and insicure people who belive to be cool....don't permit this people to have your money through a beautiful web site which doesn't say the truth!. I am young (under 30) and I will never ever go back there!

We stayed here for 3 nights in July 06. We absolutately loved, loved, loved the decor. Very original and funky. Not for everyones taste, but you can see the pictures for yourself. The hotel and rooms were clean. The rooms and bathroom was small but comfy. The pool and jacuzzi on the roof was great...even beats going to the beach. Their "private beach" was all booked and was far away from the hotel. We ended up just going and reserving a spot at the beach right near, no problem. The location of the hotel is great...right next to the beach and Le Croisette. Only good things to say about costumer service: they openned up the pool early for us on our last day so we could enjoy it before leaving on an early ferry. Also liked that the hotel would give out umbrellas when it started to rain. When checking in ask for a room away from the elevator, can be loud I heard. Overall, it was very reasonably priced comparing to surrounding hotels and great place to stay especially if you like the decor.
