Executive Place...a fabulous renovation for the 26 rooms and suites of the Hôtel Gray d'Albion's 9th floor. The Gray d'Albion in the centre of Cannes has been undergoing section-by-section renovation work for several years now. These new improvements and modernisations on the top floor at this 4-star hotel are called the Executive Place and continue the trend that included the launch of the restaurant in 2006. The renovation uses the same chic colour scheme as this wonderful gourmet restaurant (cream to chocolate, caramel to beige and pastel-white to golden sand), bringing a multi-faceted, warm and casual ambience. Finally, the hotel's private beach, just one minute from the hotel, also features Libanese food in winter.

The 9th floor Executive rooms have been redesigned in detail including exotic Wengé woodwork, combined with glass, carpets and materials, with Plexi-glass and metal furniture, and Philippe Starck accessories for the finishing touches. Curtains filter the daylight, enhancing the discreet sophistication and quiet elegance. Plenty of luxury has gone into the layout and detail. The Dream sleeper is an excellent example of this: a triple-size bed for two (or one), the first on the French Riviera. Rooms feature LCD TVs, Internet (20 minutes free Wifi connection) as well as a printer and fax machine on request. Finally, a personalised tea/coffee kit (unlimited "Mariage Frères" tea & Malongo fair-trade coffee), an individual ironing kit, a bottle of Norwegian Voss 33cl, a superb vase of orchids and a basket of apples complete the rooms.

Hôtel Gray d'Albion is located in the heart of Cannes, near the Croisette and the Palais des Festivals. The nearest airport is Nice which is 30 minutes drive. The rest of the town centre can be reached in less than 10 minutes on foot, there is also a taxi rank beside the hotel.
