Monaco is the epitome of luxury, and the Hotel de Paris has been the most luxurious place to stay in the principality since 1864. If you are looking for a spot for a luxurious stay in the South of France, the Hotel de Paris is the place to go. We absolutely love the south of France and were so excited when we got to stay at the Hotel de Paris this summer. Keep reading to find out why the Hotel de Paris is the most luxurious place to stay in Monaco and why you should visit this year.
Accommodations at the Hotel de Paris
The Hotel de Paris underwent a complete renovation in 2019 so every room and suite in the hotel features a fresh take on Beaux-Arts style. Our Exclusive Room with sea view featured a spacious bedroom, sweeping views of the Mediterranean, a marble bathroom and lots of historic details that give the space lots of charm.

Dining
The property has plenty of onsite dining options including: the Café de Paris, Em Sherif, Louis XV and Le Grill. Start with an aperitivo at the Café de Paris, which for the time being is located in Salle Empire space on the terrace of the Hotel de Paris while its space in the Place du Casino is being renovated. Order a bottle of rose, a few snacks and enjoy the pastime of Monaco, people watching and car watching. Enjoy the supercars, hypercars and other rare cars that cruise around the square all evening long. When you’ve had your fill of this, move onto dinner at Em Sherif, Louis XV or Le Grill. Whether you want a Three Michelin star experience or a tasty Lebanese one, you are sure to leave satisfied.
Things to do at the Hotel de Paris
There are only a few things to do in Monaco, shop, eat, and swim. And at this property you can do all three. Since we have already discussed dining, lets move onto swimming. There is a chic rooftop pool at the hotel, complete with some chic sun bed and cabanas, perfect for that Insta snap. And afterwards, head down to the Monte Carlo Beach club to hop into the Mediterranean itself, all guests at the Hotel de Paris are entitled to complimentary access and can get there on the free shuttle bus from the hotel. But last but not least, enjoy some high-end shopping as all the haute couture designers have shops in Monte Carlo.
