The director of the Cannes luxury hotel closed the doors of the Carlton on Monday, and this for the remainder of the year.
The rumor had already been running for several weeks in the Alpes-Maritimes region, but Giuseppe Vincelli, the director of the Carlton, confirmed the closing of the Cannes palace on Thursday, September 10. The hotel, which had already closed its doors in mid-March with the national lockdown, had only reopened at the beginning of August.
The Carlton has therefore been closed since September 28, 2020 and will only open again at the end of the year, on the occasion of the international luxury travel event, if it is well maintained. However, its restaurant and beach will remain open.
A radical but necessary decision: “Our priority is to maintain jobs. So it is the best option not to lose too much money” said the management of the hotel.
In the lack of an international clientele, the luxury hotel sector is strongly affected by the economic crisis related to the coronavirus. Indeed, the sector is struggling to return to normal activity and is faced with a too low influx of customers.
In addition, the high level of service offered by palaces requires more staff than in the utility hotel sector, which is more easily able to overcome the consequences of the health crisis. With a large number of employees, sometimes five for a single customer, and the low influx of customers, the Carlton de Cannes is therefore forced to close its doors so as not to increase its deficit too much.
” The Carlton is closed, it had never happened before! It’s like the Eiffel Tower in Cannes, it’s always on !” declares Christine Welter, the president of the union of the hotel owners of Cannes and the Cannes basin, after the closing on Monday of the famous palace.
