Radisson Blu 1835 Hotel & Thalasso

When you have the likes of Diane Kruger, Joshua Jackson and Beth Ditto checking into a hotel for the Cannes Film Festival, you know it\'s something pretty special. The hotel is perfectly positioned in the heart of Cannes, meaning that from the modern rooms, the chic bars or the luxurious restaurants you\'ll be spoilt with sweeping views over either the town, the Mediterranean, the Old Harbour or the fancy beautiful people magnet that is La Croisette Promenade. While staying in the hotel, treat yourself to some R&R in the Thalasso Spa; it has an impressive 46 treatment rooms, thermal baths, a hammam and an inviting pool - after a day of rubbing shoulders with the likes of Brad, George and Sonam at the festival you\'ll be ready for some relaxation. If you ask us, the best of the star-worthy hotel has to be the views, whether you\'re enjoying a few drinks in 30°C, or a special French meal at rooftop restaurant, Le 360, which serves up a modern twist on French cuisine - the seafood is fantastic - and boasts panoramic views of the bay and the Old Town; so bag a table on the terrace and people-watch for hours. Inside info Get away for a spa break this summer. How? Just book two nights in one of the classic or deluxe sea-view rooms, and you\'ll get a luxe spa treatment included in the stay. Prices start from Dh570 per-night.
