2025 Michelin Keys Ceremony: The Hôtel de Paris Monte-Carlo once again awarded three Keys
For the second year running, the Hôtel de Paris Monte-Carlo has just been awarded the coveted three Michelin Keys by the Michelin Guide. This highest accolade in the hospitality industry signifies an “extraordinary stay”, as described by the famous Red Guide: “Here, everything is a source of wonder – it is the pinnacle of comfort and service, style and elegance. It is one of the most remarkable and extraordinary Hotels in the world, a destination in its own right that is worth the journey alone. All the elements that testify to exceptional hospitality come together to ensure that every stay remains etched not only in the minds, but also in the hearts of travellers. »
This year, as was the case last year, only 24 hotels in France (and Monaco) have been awarded these three Keys, including five in the Var and Alpes-Maritimes regions and just one hotel in Monaco: the Hôtel de Paris Monte-Carlo.
I am delighted and proud to see the Hôtel de Paris Monte-Carlo recognised once again by the Michelin Guide. This distinction honours not only the historic and iconic hotel on the Place du Casino, but also the excellence of its teams, led since 29 September by Louis Starck. These three Michelin Keys reflect the values upheld by Monte-Carlo Société des Bains de Mer in terms of luxury and excellence.
Created in 2024, the Michelin Keys are awarded based on five essential criteria: excellence in architecture and interior design, the quality and consistency of service, the personality and overall character of the Hotel, value for money, and a significant contribution to the neighbourhood or the environment. They are to the hotel industry what stars are to restaurants.
This new distinction is further recognition of the keen sense of excellence that characterises the Monte-Carlo Société des Bains de Mer Group and the teams who ensure, day in, day out, an exceptional quality of stay worthy of Monte-Carlo’s grand art de vivre.
