Palais Stéphanie, the newly renovated luxury hotel in Cannes, was granted its fifth star by the commissioner of the Alpes-Maritimes département in southeast France. Accredited experts based the hotel’s new classification upon extensive appraisals and surprise audits encompassing 124 mandatory and a hundred optional criteria. These procedures ensured that Palais Stéphanie met the strict standards of exceptional customer service, sustainable development, amenities and food services.
The Alpes-Maritimes département is one of France’s state administrative subdivisions and is the official governmental unit with the authority to award classifications to hotels of the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region.
“Through the recent restoration, this classic hotel was transformed into a vibrant and fashionable destination reflecting its glamorous film heritage,” said General Director Richard Duvauchelle. “The 5-star classification is an exciting moment for Palais Stéphanie, and is a culmination of our team’s tireless efforts to offer a chic and upscale hotel option for all travelers providing unparalleled service and amenities.”
The hotel sits on the original site of the Palais des Congrès, where the first Cannes Film Festivals were held. The dramatic redesign of the hotel pays tribute to the legendary film stars of festivals past, such as Sophia Loren, Brigitte Bardot, and Liz Taylor, whose timeless glamour accentuate the Palais’ design. The impressive architecture and décor, spacious 261 rooms, impeccable food services, and the exceptional customer relations including services for disabled guests, all come together for unforgettable five-star experience.
