JW Marriott Cannes Updates Restaurant, Atrium and Entrance Just in Time for Film Festival


CANNES, FRANCE--(Marketwire - May 23, 2012) - Stunning renovations at a prominent French Riviera hotel in Cannes are scheduled for completion just in time for the international entourage of Film Festival attendees that make the trek to Cannes each spring in celebration of creative film artists and their work.

With the May 16-27 festival finally here, the JW Marriott Cannes hotel has completed exciting renovations that add to the shine and sparkle of this prestigious lodging set to be bursting with activity. Selected to again host the festival's VIP ROOM®, the sophisticated hotel with terrace on La Croisette will welcome nearly 2,000 hand-picked and privileged guests to enjoy the renowned atmosphere of movie nights, international DJs, and festival addicts including appearances by famed Rock, Rap and Pop Stars. Additionally, the fanciful Nikki Beach La Terrasse will be held on the rooftop of this famed Cannes French Riviera hotel featuring lavish lounge and dining areas along with appearances by many world-class artists.

Stepping into one of the most popular luxury suite hotels in Cannes, guests will immediately notice the fully renovated entrance with its shimmering gold and black colors. The lobby atrium has also undergone a facelift and features gold accent curtains in the atrium and an impressive chandelier above the newly designed area which now includes a champagne bar. The bar uniquely displays all the bottles, aligned in gold envelopes, along the wall. This newly designed bar space also includes all new comfortable furniture including sofas and armchairs in warm colors and textures to accent the gold and black color scheme. A stunning, large painting on the wall brings all of the atrium's colors together, offering a warm and inviting space for a meal or cocktail.

Trending the hotel's restaurant toward a new JW Grill Cannes set to be operational just after the festival, guests will find this Cannes fine dining establishment well worth the wait for both ambience and taste. Designed with future luxury in mind, the new look will include white light colors, marble flooring, gold mosaic, wood surfaces and Swarovski Crystal chandeliers, trending away from the traditional steakhouse look into a more sophisticated and opulent concept. Equally as fine, the restaurant will serve USDA Certified Natural Premium Angus Beef from Creekstone Farms in Kansas, along with locally grown lamb, veal and poultry products for a savory start to a delectable menu. Seafood will also be on the menu, perfectly grilled to perfection on a high-temperature American grill. Cocktails, handcrafted with only fresh local products and served in signature glassware, will tantalize guests along with an extensive wine list that includes Provencal and fine French wines from the yards of Bourgogne and Bordeaux.
