The 150-plus-year-old Hôtel de Paris Monte-Carlo has quite the pedigree. It’s hosted everyone from the Rockefellers to Rothschilds — as well as Prince Rainier III and Princess Grace’s wedding dinner.
In 2014, the palace (which billionaire François Blanc initially envisioned in 1864 as “a hotel that surpasses everything that has been created until now”) embarked on a €600 million, four-year renovation led by French architect Richard Martinet (also behind The Peninsula Paris).
The modernized hotel emerged with an open-air, tree-lined courtyard of haute joailleries (like Graff and Harry Winston), two royal-themed rooftop villas (Jacuzzi tubs included), a second Alain Ducasse eatery and a star-stylist-branded salon that offers private yacht service — a first for the principality.
Experience a touch of the good life at Hôtel de Paris Monte-Carlo, whether you’re enjoying a cup of tea in the enchanting Jeweler’s Courtyard, enjoying live jazz at Le Bar Américan or taking a leisurely dip in the rooftop pool at the Wellness Sky Club.
The two-bedroom Princess Grace Suite, spanning almost 10,000 square feet, delivers sublime views from its terrace of the Mediterranean and the Prince’s Palace. The unit also has a heated infinity pool and granite Jacuzzi.
