Book a Prestige Sea View Room — it's the sweet spot before suites and the most popular category; you get full Mediterranean views without paying suite prices

Why It Matters

One of the grand palace hotels on the Croisette and Cannes Film Festival's unofficial home base for decades. The Christian Dior Suite — a Haussmann-style apartment unique in Europe — and the Majestic Suite with its private rooftop infinity pool are among the most theatrical rooms on the Riviera. The hotel also holds the Croisette's largest private pontoon and hosts its own cinema screening room.

Close to a hundred years old and still holding court on La Croisette. Le Majestic sits directly opposite the Palais des Festivals — that's the building with the famous red-carpet steps — and most of its 349 rooms look straight out at the Mediterranean. The white Art Deco façade is a Cannes landmark, and the interiors lean into the cinematic legacy: black-and-white portraits of film icons, high ceilings, statement chandeliers, and a signature smoky-spicy scent that hits you in the lobby.
