For discerning travelers, Le Suquet offers an authentic yet luxurious alternative to the modern buzz of the Croisette, while still being only minutes away from the heart of Cannes.

Discover why staying in Le Suquet means experiencing Cannes at its finest and why choosing the right Cannes congress apartment can elevate your journey entirely.

Le Suquet: Where Cannes Began

Perched above the Vieux Port, Le Suquet is Cannes’ oldest district, once a quiet fishing village and now a refined, cultural enclave. Its winding cobblestone streets, centuries-old buildings, and stunning views offer a journey through time. From the Notre-Dame d’Espérance Church to the iconic Tour Carrée, the area’s historical architecture speaks volumes about Cannes’ aristocratic past.

• Notre-Dame d'Espérance: a 17th-century church with panoramic views

• Museum of World Explorations: inside the former medieval castle

• Art galleries and ateliers nestled within charming alleyways

For those seeking a mix of heritage and modern comfort, Le Suquet presents a rare opportunity to stay at the crossroads of culture and class.
