A true green oasis on the famous Croisette, the hotel enjoys a unique and exceptional setting. The oldest hotel along this famous stretch, it has been completely revamped in a 1960s style. There are 75 rooms and suites, a restaurant, a bar and a private beach.

Once you've made your way through the gardens of the hotel, either on foot or by golf buggy, come to the reception area and let our friendly, helpful staff guide you. Escape from the hustle and bustle of La Croisette and retreat to your room or suite. The hotel offers spacious rooms, drenched with natural light, and a fabulous, very 60s ambiance.

Designer light fittings, luxury bedding, elegant furnishings and Bulgari welcome products plunge you into an atmosphere of sweet sensual delight. Orchids freshly cut from the hotel’s greenhouse add that finishing touch of elegance to your room.

The rooms at the hotel open onto terraces overlooking the sea, the gardens and its palm trees, over Cannes and the surrounding hillsides. Why not settle into an armchair and peacefully look out at the sweep of the Mediterranean landscape from Le Cannet to Grasse and beyond.

The serene light colours of the elegant designer bedrooms offer a sense of tranquillity. Outside, the clear blue skies of the Côte d’Azur beckon while, inside, the room is bathed in Mediterranean light. Luxury and sun, the two magic ingredients in your stay on the Riviera. The room offers the following amenities: free Wi-Fi, flat-screen TV with Pay TV, mini-bar, safe, en-suite bathroom with luxury towelling and slippers and Bulgari bathroom amenities.

Worth knowing

Although they do not have a swimming pool, this hotel has something that the others do not...an oasis of green in the immaculately maintained gardens. The only garden on this stretch of the popular Boulevard de la Croisette. It provides a nice change to the sand and sea to be able to relax and enjoy the views, a cocktail or a snack in the lush garden setting.

The pool

The hotel’s private beach, La Plage 45 Beach Club sets the scene for the most exclusive moments, whether on their sun-drenched pontoon, the beach or the restaurant terrace.

The Bar

A popular meeting spot Le Cercle bar offers you the choice of funky retro armchairs in the interior or a relaxing seat on the terrace. The perfect setting for a quick Bellini...

The Restaurant

With a dynamic ambience Le Park 45 is an elegant restaurant with an outdoor terrace and views over the gardens. With locally sourced ingredients, Chef Sebastien Broda creates Mediterranean inspired dishes. This accompanied with a range of desserts created by Head Pastry Chef Pascal Picasse and wines selected for you by sommelier Florent Champanay, ensure you will have the perfect meal.

The private beach restaurant La Plage 45 is open for lunch from April to September.
