A warm holiday season at the Hotel Metropole Monte-Carlo

Each year, the Metropole decks their halls with extravagant Christmas decor, warming our hearts and our bellies.



The beauty of red ignites passion, spreading energy and creating a symphony of sensuality and luxury throughout the hotel. An original scenography that resonates with the irresistible carefree spirit of French elegance. Perrine Guyonnet's artistic vision has adorned the hotel with giant red bows and ribbons, silky, light and glittery, creating an atmosphere that rhymes with glamour and charm.


The festive warmth of red even extends to the sumptuously decorated Christmas tree, as well as to the Salon des Princes and the Lobby Bar, sublimated by spectacular drapes of fabric and bows. It's an exceptional sensory experience that transports you to a world of splendour and sophistication.


For the kids

Their children's workshops, led by talented artists, will allow little ones to give free rein to their imagination. The free workshop (for guests) on 24 December is an opportunity to create Christmas decorations from hanging pine cones.


Bring the kids to meet Father Christmas on the 24th in the enchanting Lobby Bar. From 4 - 5 pm he'll be spreading festive cheer and creating memories with the children.


To celebrate the last day of the year in style, their final festive workshop on 31 December has fun activities such as creating a wish box and much more, from 3 - 4:30 pm.

The delicious cake, designed by Chef Christophe Cussac and his pastry chef Patrick Mesiano, subtly blends a lime and olive oil biscuit with vanilla and a strawberry and lemon confit. The perfect way to WOW at your holiday table.

Jazzy evenings


Jazz takes on a new dimension in the sumptuous surroundings of our elegant hotel. The glittering chandeliers, tastefully decorated tables and hushed ambience plunge you into a bygone era, that of the legendary jazz clubs of New Orleans.


Jaffa is an exceptionally talented artist with a melodious voice worthy of Louis Armstrong himself. With his warm, rich timbre, he interprets jazz standards with a passion that touches your heart. As well as his spellbinding voice, he also excels at the piano, following in the footsteps of this great musician who left his mark on the history of jazz.


You'll be able to relax, sip exquisite cocktails and enjoy fine food while you're carried away by the magic of jazz. Expect to hear classics such as "What a Wonderful World", "Hello Dolly", "Summertime", "St. Louis Blues" and many more. For an incomparable jazz experience, join us for our Jazzy evenings.

Book your table at the Lobby Bar now and get ready to experience unforgettable moments to the sound of Jazz.
