Cannes' largest hotel infinity pool sits in an enclosed courtyard garden planted with 22,000 shrubs and flowers.
The spa
Subterranean treatment suites wrapped in white marble offer skincare protocols from Barbara Sturm and SwissLine.

Restaurant
Rüya
Anatolian dishes are served in a bright dining room crowned with a domed brass chandelier and patterned tiles.
The soaring lobby is drenched in natural light, while newly raised ceilings… keep the space feeling open and airy.
At the table
Riviera serves Mediterranean classics on the terrace, and Bar°58 mixes cocktails at an artisan raku ceramic counter.
How it began
An exiled Russian grand duke financed the hotel in 1911, and it later hosted the first League of Nations meeting.
