The Carlton Cannes, a Regent Hotel is a Belle Epoque architectural gem that lords over the city&#8217;s famed Croisette waterfront thoroughfare. The hotel dates back to 1911 and has gone through different ownership groups and brand affiliations, but its current iteration is with IHG&#8217;s Regent brand, which reopened the property in 2023 after an extensive renovation that took place during the pandemic.<\/p>\n<p>I lucked out during my recent trip to the International Luxury Travel Market with a chance to stay at the Carlton Cannes.
