Five Seas Cannes
Cannes, France · Independent · Core Luxury
Five Seas occupies Cannes' former post office, the facade still showing exposed bolts like the Eiffel Tower's riveted steel, a 45-room Inwood Hotels house on rue Notre-Dame. Studio MHNA opened it in 2011 as a fantasy of expedition trunks and lanterns; upstairs, Le Roof gave chef Arnaud Tabarec his first Michelin star in 2014 beside a thirteen-metre infinity pool aimed at Le Suquet instead of the sea.
- 45 rooms
- Opened 2011
- Neighborhood: Croisette

History
Five Seas opened in spring 2011 in Cannes' former post office, a 45-room Inwood Hotels house whose facade keeps exposed bolts reminiscent of the Eiffel Tower. Studio MHNA styled the interiors as a luxury camping fantasy of expedition trunks and lanterns. Rooftop restaurant Le Roof earned chef Arnaud Tabarec his first Michelin star in 2014.
The setting
Five Seas Cannes sits toward the west of Croisette in Cannes. Bd de la Croisette is essentially at the door, Palace of Festivals and Congresses of Cannes is about 2 minutes on foot, and Marché Forville is roughly 5 minutes' walk. La Croisette is two kilometres of Mediterranean pavement: palms, private beaches, and palace hotels facing the bay. The Palais des Festivals sits on the western end as the civic stage. 4-minute walk to Le Croisette Casino Barrière.
