The Maybourne Riviera ★★★★★, perched at Roquebrune-Cap-Martin above Monaco: 65 suites facing the sea, abc kitchens by Jean-Georges Vongerichten, La Môme Riviera beach club, and Surrenne wellness. Maybourne's first European property outside London.
The fourth SBM property in our ranking, the Monte-Carlo Bay Hotel & Resort offers a radically different experience from the Carré d'Or palaces: a 4,000 m² sandy heated lagoon pool open year-round, a full Clarins & Myblend indoor spa, and the relaxed atmosphere of a Mediterranean resort.
Sister hotel to the Hôtel de Paris within the Société des Bains de Mer, the Hôtel Hermitage Monte-Carlo is Monaco's purest Belle Époque address: a glass roof signed by Gustave Eiffel, a heritage pink façade, and direct access to the Thermes Marins.
The Fairmont Monte Carlo is the pragmatic option for those who want to experience the Principality without paying the SBM palace rates. On the Formula 1 Grand Prix circuit, with its iconic rooftop pool and Nobu as its signature restaurant, it offers accessible contemporary luxury.
Jacques Garcia interior design, a Mediterranean indoor garden, a Guerlain Spa with heated indoor pool, Michelin-starred Yoshi cuisine: the Hôtel Métropole Monte-Carlo is the intimate palace that competes without compromise with the SBM institutions.
Opened in 1864, reopened in 2018 after four years of works and a 280 M€ investment, the Hôtel de Paris Monte-Carlo remains, nearly 160 years on, the absolute benchmark of the European palace. Our verdict.
