Le Meridien Beach Plaza

Vibrant beach hotel in Monaco. It’s an old school European beach to tel with a huge pool area and fabulous a fabulous private beach. We stayed 1 night to get a taste of Monaco. It’s a little bit out of the main area but within walking distance. It was a perfect choice if you want a little bit of relaxation as well as action. Loved it.

We have spent 25 years in a row at this hotel ! And it is better than ever. OK, the rooms are a little on the old side but they are going to renew the bathrooms as a first upgrade for next season. The new manager Vincent are really on his toes to make this hotel as great as possible. We can really recommend the restaurant MUSE close to the beach. The food is extremely good and the service are the best you can find, Specially Jonathan the Sommelier are giving you a fantastic experience. We are always staying at the beach close to the water and we had this year a fantastic service from Mathis.

Beautiful Hotel in Monte Carlo, really good food, good service, the beach is really nice and clean with comfortable chairs and umbrellas provided . We had 2 rooms first night we had a little hiccup our bathroom did not have a shower just a tub with a very short handheld husband 6’4” could not use it (luckily our daughters room had a shower ) the staff were very understanding and accommodating and they moved us the next day as the day we arrived the hotel was full. I also assume being ambassador helped too . Definitely would come back loved Monaco, the hotel and everything about the area!

Review: Disappointing Second Stay at Le Méridien Hotel, Monaco Before I start congrats to the Lacoste 🐊cafe opening! This was our second time staying at Le Méridien in Monaco, and unfortunately, it will be our last. Our first visit was pleasant enough to bring us back, but this time the experience was disappointing in several ways. While the hotel is still large and visually impressive, many aspects fell short. The pool area was unpleasant — the stones around it were rough and uncomfortable, and the pool itself was filthy. The walls of the pool were ok but the floor was a disgrace for the type of money we’re spending! Additionally, the drains outside near the sunbeds were blocked, causing standing water and an unhygienic environment. We were told our luggage would be brought up shortly after check-in, but it took over 40 minutes to arrive despite assurances from staff. However, the main reason we decided to leave two days earlier than planned was the clientele. The guests during this visit were exceptionally rude and inconsiderate, making it impossible to relax or enjoy our stay. After speaking with a few other families who felt the same and also cut their trips short, it was clear this was a widespread issue. Also we were moved to floor 2 due to building works and the balcony had a big air con box. Hotel staff were amazing thought can’t fault them! It’s disappointing to see how much the standards have dropped since our last visit. While the hotel has potential, poor maintenance, slow service, and an unpleasant atmosphere ruined our experience. Sadly, we won’t be returning.

Unfortunately, our experience at Le Méridien Monte Carlo fell well below expectations. While the receptionist at check-in did greet us, the interaction was minimal and felt far from welcoming. Once we arrived in our room, we noticed a strong, unpleasant smell. Upon closer inspection, we discovered visible mold inside the air conditioning unit (as shown in our photo). We informed the front desk immediately. The staff member on duty seemed uninterested and even questioned whether it was mold, suggesting it might just be “color” – which was hard to take seriously given the strong odor and obvious appearance. He said someone would come to inspect the room and that they would move us only if it turned out to be mold. We left the hotel for a few hours, assuming the issue would be handled while we were out. When we returned and asked about it, we were simply told we’d be moved – no update, no apology, and it was clear that no real investigation or internal follow-up had taken place. I also had to specifically ask for a room of the same category, which should have been a given. The new room was fine, but the overall handling of the situation was poor and unprofessional. The rooms in general feel dated and in need of refreshment. On a positive note, the hotel’s private beach access is lovely – a real plus in Monte Carlo – and our check-out experience was excellent. Morgan at the front desk was warm, helpful, and a breath of fresh air compared to the previous day. Despite the beachfront location and Morgan’s great service, the lack of care and poor handling of our issue means we won’t be returning.
