Hôtel Hermitage Monte-Carlo

The Hermitage's winter garden was designed by Gustave Eiffel — the man behind the Tower — and its stained-glass dome remains one of the most beautiful enclosed spaces on the Riviera. Opened in 1900 and connected by private passage to the Monte-Carlo Casino and the Thermes Marins spa, the Hermitage offers a slightly quieter, more refined alternative to the Hotel de Paris across the square. 278 rooms, the Vistamar restaurant, and a terrace overlooking the harbour that during the Grand Prix becomes one of the most exclusive vantage points in motorsport.
