Hotel Hermitage Monte-Carlo
The Hôtel Hermitage Monte-Carlo is a luxury hotel in the heart of the Principality of Monaco as well as a haven of peace and quiet, a symbol of understated glamour.

There are 325 rooms and suites, and eight apartments, recently refurbished.

Hotel Metropole Monte-Carlo
The 126 bedrooms are tastefully decorated in soft creams, the heated outdoor pool has a sexy, summer-in-the-city charm, but the main attraction is the open-plan two-Michelin-starred restaurant headed by star chef Joel Robuchon. There is also a gorgeous Givenchy spa.

Monte-Carlo Bay Hotel and Resort
The newest kid on Monaco’s four-star luxury block is the exuberant Monte-Carlo Bay Hotel and Resort. With its sandy-bottomed lagoon and its endless sun terraces bordering the Mediterranean Sea, it’s a year-round playground for groups of friends and families alike.

Hotel de Paris Monte-Carlo
A simple flight of steps leads from Place du Casino to the majestic lobby of the Hôtel de Paris Monte-Carlo. Low relief sculptures, marble colonnades and crystal chandeliers combine to create a sense of awe-inspiring solemnity which makes this such a memorable destination.

Monte-Carlo Beach
Arrive by boat to this ultra-luxurious Art Deco hotel’s private jetty. There’s an Olympic-sized pool, private beach and Michelin-starred cuisine. The 40 rooms and suites are inspired by Matisse and Cocteau, bathrooms are walled in white marble. It is stunning.
