Constructed in the 1880s, the Métropole is the perfect blend of the traditional and the modern. Set in the very heart of glamorous Monte Carlo, it’s a step away from the Métropole Gallery - a treasure trove of boutiques and luxury shops - and adjacent to the famous Casino itself.

The hotel's spa, roof-terrace and two Joel Robuchon restaurants make it one of the classiest places to stay, especally if you've come to the Place du Casino to win! 'If Monaco is one of the best places in the world to play a rich man's game, the Hotel Metropole is the place to stay while you're doing it', wrote Vogue last year. And there's every reason to agree with them.



Its 150 rooms and 60 suites assure guests of a memorable stay in a truly stylish and elegant setting, but of course the hotel staff want you to do so much more than that in Monaco, and they have developed an extensive activities programme including half-day and day excursions on the Mediterranean, helicopter flights, a day's wine-tasting at the Chateau Roubine in neighbouring Provence, and even piloting a jet plane.

Needless to say, none of these come without a price tag - a day in an F1 car on the circuit at Luc-en-Provence will set you back €2,750 including helicopter transfer, but all such treats must be weighed against the sheer thrill - and the stories you will dine out on for years!
