Luxury hotels on the French Riviera

Q: Which room would I ask for as a couple?

At Le Negresco1, the Deluxe Sea View measures 30 m². At the Carlton5, Premium Sea View with Balcony gives you about 37 m² and a balcony over the bay. At du Cap8, the Eden-Roc Junior Suite has 49 m² in the Eden-Roc Pavilion. Get the category and outlook confirmed in writing: a city-view room and a seaside suite make quite different holidays.

Q: What would I consider with children?

At Le Negresco3, the Family Suite has 63 m², 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. At the Carlton6, ask for Two-bedroom Residence Garden View with the beds and occupancy confirmed. At du Cap9, each adult may accompany at most 2 children at the pool, and there is no lifeguard.

Q: What should I ask before booking a beach holiday?

For N La Plage4, open from May to September, ask what loungers cost and whether your rate includes them. At Carlton Beach Club7, request the included services and hours for your dates. Du Cap10 ended its 2026 season on 18 October: ask for a quote for the next opening, with the deposit and cancellation terms.

Q: What price should I request at du Cap for the next season?

Ask for a quote for named dates and a named room9, with breakfast, tourist tax and cancellation terms in the total. For the next opening, I would wait for that quote: a price from last season is too little to decide on.

What the Lumi are

Which to choose

Le Negresco opens onto the Promenade des Anglais, the Carlton puts its beach across La Croisette, and du Cap-Eden-Roc leads down to rock and a seawater pool. Nice and Cannes keep the town in your holiday. At du Cap, I would leave time for the grounds and the water; for the next season, ask for opening dates and a quote first.

Hotel	Suits	The trip	Worth knowing
Carlton Cannes	Beach days with evenings out in Cannes	The beach is across La Croisette, the pool in the garden; residences add a kitchen	Classic and Premium rooms take at most 2 guests: with children, consider connecting rooms or a residence
Hotel du Cap-Eden-Roc	Days given to swimming, tennis and long terrace lunches	An Eden-Roc Junior Suite puts a private terrace above the Mediterranean	The sea meets a rocky coast here: for sand underfoot, I would choose another stretch of coast
Le Negresco	Anyone who wants art back at the hotel too	Period furniture and paintings fill the rooms; ask for a Deluxe Sea View to wake up to the Mediterranean	The Superior faces the inner façade: booking Le Negresco alone does not secure a sea view
