Hôtel Martinez, Cannes, France

Our flight to Nice was cancelled last minute, and we were re-booked on two connections, which meant three planes to travel not a very far distance. C’est la vie. How could we complain though? 3 nights in Cannes was awaiting us, including a spectacular wedding, so as long as we rushed through Oslo and Amsterdam […]

The property – and more importantly – the service, delivered on this hope beyond our highest of expectations from our immediate arrival and throughout our entire stay. Kudos […]
