This World Class hotel is located on the famous Croisette Avenue, close to the Cannes Palais des Festivals and to the shopping district. It offers breathtaking views of the Mediterranean Sea. Welcoming prestigious guests for nearly a century, the InterContinental Carlton Cannes recently opened 10 exceptional suites on the 7th floor, each named after the most famous movie stars. The InterContinental Carlton Cannes is a 338-room luxury hotel built in 1909. During the Cannes Film Festival it is the most prestigious place to stay and the undisputed headquarters of motion picture industry deal-making. Part of the InterContinental chain, the Carlton is famous for hosting movie stars from around the world during the annual Film Festival. The hotel was also featured in Elton John's well-known 1983 music video for the single, "I'm Still Standing", and the exterior and interior features in New Order's 1993 music video for the single, "World (The Price of Love)". More famously, the hotel was a central location for the Alfred Hitchcock film To Catch a Thief starring Grace Kelly and Cary Grant. While staying at the Hotel Carlton during the 1955 Cannes Film Festival, Academy Award winning movie star Grace Kelly had an arranged meeting and photo shoot with His Serene Highness (HSH) Prince Rainier III of Monaco which eventually resulted in their 1956 marriage and in her becoming Her Serene Highness Princess Grace. The Carlton's distinctive domes on both seaward corners were reputedly designed to resemble the breasts of Caroline Otero ("La Belle Otero") the most famous courtesan of the French Riviera during the years surrounding World War I. The Carlton's elegant seventh floor formal dining room is named La Belle Otero in her honour, although there are a couple of less formal restaurants, La Côte and La Brasserie, on the ground floor. The Carlton Hotel gained infamy in 1994 when it was the site of one of the largest successful heists in history. Thieves reportedly stole 43 million dollars worth of jewelry from the hotel's exclusive jewelry store. Both the thieves and the jewelry remain at large as of today.
