At first glance of this hotel, you are like this is a Le Meridien. It is nothing like the le meridiens that I am used to in the states. But after realizing that we are in another country that it is different and an older city, we accepted that we were staying at the nicest hotel around. It is located on the beach, which we didnt use but we used the water sports. The staff was very accomodating to our needs, helped us out a lot. Although Antibes is much closer then they say it is and it is the cutest town with a lot more restaurants and shopping! This place really made the hotel great. Because the rooms are older and the elevators not all that great, but the area was worth it.

Thought on booking this hotel i would give it benefit of the doubt, as I had been offered a great deal through hotel connect (who incidently are great as they managed to get me a sea view which was not advertised on their website but they called the hotel anyway on my behalf and negotiated a rate most impressed) for a 7 day stay at a great price of £1288.00 incl breakfast which i thought wasnt bad for a 4* hotel. This 'On the Beach' hotel has such a great central spot in juan les pins, close to lots of bars and good eateries unfortunately that's it!!!, almost everything else you would expect from a 4* hotel is poor and very expensive!!. The day we arrived the wifi connection in the room didnt work for a couple of days and BBC 1 one of the only english channels that was free never worked from the time we arrived to the time we left, whilst all the other channels are chargeable at 5 euros a day it seemed that bbc 1 channel worked while we paid for it funny that!! The rooms/bed were of a decent size and we had a great sea view with a balcony but the decor was a lot to be desired dirty scuff marks on the walls everywhere and a bathroom in desperate need of a refurb and a word to the wise the mini bar is extremely expensive dont even think about it at 4.50 euros for a small packet of m & ms!!. My breakfast experience was not much better either as the toaster was broken for a couple of days and when it returned (from the ark!!) "fixed" it took about fifteen minutes to get any toast out of it and only then if you wanted it unbrowned!!, buffet breakfast was of a poor quality even if there was lots of it if you like fried food, fresh fruit was offer but only if you arrived within the first 30 mins of the buffet opening, there was nothing cooked from fresh for you at all. (At most marriott hotels all hard/soft/fried boiled eggs & omlettes are cooked from fresh at your request). The restaurant on the beach is good but still very expensive and at 12 euros!! for a pint of lager you really have to choose whether to eat or drink not both, the beach beds supplied by the hotel are also not free at 17 euros per day for the front row (front being closet to the sea, there are 3 rows in total), please be aware that if you dont come down for a full day you will still get charged for it!! I didnt use the pool or gym at all but neither looked very tempting as they also needed refurbishing. Overall i think this hotel was poor and not 4*, i would NOT considering staying here again unless they decide to spend some serious cash on improving, updating and cleaning the communal areas & outside of the building, bathrooms, bedrooms and upstairs restaurant . Its a great pity as i would have liked to be able to write something positive about this hotel, because when entering your hotel bedroom the welcoming television message advertises the many features and benefits of this hotel and its other LUXURY hotels around the world, unfortunately this isnt one of them!!! What a great pity as this is such a lovely spot on the cote d'azur, great sandy beaches, great eateries, fab shoe/clothes shops to fit varous pockets and great cocktail bars i shall return definately but not to this hotel!!

I stayed here with some business colleagues asfter moving from another hotel on the other side of Cannes as that was terrible.

this hotel was perfectly acceptable. Room was clean and functional. Breakfast was ok, not the best I ever had but...

Dinner in the resturant next door is HIGHLY recomended, it was fantastic. The Seabass was superb as was the rack of Lamb.

Overall, one of the better hotel available in the Cannes area.

This is the fifth year in a row I've spent a few happy days at Le Meridien. It's a large hotel right on the beach at Juan Les Pins. I've had a sea view room with balcony for the last three years and the views are magnificent. The rooms are well appointed and are of generous dimensions. Big beds, big tellys, wi-fi etc. The bathroom was spotless, and while I'd say new bath and shower fittings wouldn't go amiss, everything worked perfectly well. The breakfast is on the pricey side (€23.00) but you can fill up for the day on a massive buffet and lots of coffee and juices should you so wish. It's hard to do anything on the Riviera cheaply! The staff are friendly, everyone seems to have a decent level of English. I've never used the pool and gym facilities, but it looks very good!
