Hotel de Paris, Monte Carlo, Monaco
Hotel de Paris 4 Stars
"The most famous luxury hotel in Monte Carlo, with a two Michelin-starred restaurant that's a foodie destination in its own right."
Hotel Overview
Review of Hotel de Paris, by Jamie Dunford Wood
Hotel de Paris is the top luxury hotel in Monte Carlo, whose two Michelin-starred Louis XV restaurant is world class and where star gazing from the bottom on the steps is a favoured occupation of awe-struck tourists.
Right across from the Casino, the Belle Epoque lobby and American Bar are swanky and impressive, though to get through the doors will need a high degree of assurance if you are not a guest.
Many of the 196 rooms in this luxury hotel exhibit huge TVs and, in some, their own wet bars, though everything offered so enticingly is, of course, extra - drinks, film, water - in this city of Mammon. Floral patterning predominates.
The rooms are well proportioned, with mosaiced floors in the impressive bathrooms, most with separate showers. The room rates include free entrance to the Casino. The courtyard views are cheapest, with the seaview rooms being generally smaller, but with balconies. Clientele is predominantly Italian and American.

Eating in
Alain Ducasse heads up The Louis XV - expect haute cuisine at equally haute prices, in a stunning Belle Epoque restaurant. For something a little more relaxed, there's Le Grill for Mediterranean fare, or Le Cote Jardin, which opens out onto the lovely terrace.The Press Say
