Fodor's Expert Review Hôtel Hermitage Monte-Carlo
Sq. Beaumarchais, 98000, Monaco
The epitome of elegance and discretion, this hotel is where the gold-plated crowd comes not to be seen; even if you don’t stay here, visit the lobby to admire Gustav Eiffel's glass-dome Art Nouveau vestibule. The best rooms, including the Princely Diamond Suite from €22,000-a-night (a housekeeper will unpack your bags), face the sea or angle toward the port. Start with drinks at the Crystal Bar before heading to the Michelin-starred restaurant, Yannick Alléno à l'Hôtel Hermitage Monte-Carlo, with its glamorous terrace offering sweeping views of the port and palace. Ask about the V.I.K. program for kids, which includes in-room Bonpoint natural cosmetics.
