Matching the sophistication and elegance synonymous with Monaco, the Fairmont Monte Carlo is beautifully located in the centre of the quarter overlooking the mediterranean sea.
As well as 596 stylish guest rooms and suites with contemporary decoration inspired by Monaco’s heritage, the hotel features a spa and fitness centre, a selection of bars and restaurants – including Monte Carlo’s Nobu, and the famous Nikki Beach club on the Fairmont’s rooftop.
Whilst the Fairmont Monte-Carlo is loyal to its Monégasque roots, the hotel’s Regional Vice President, Pierre Louis Renou, tells Business Enquirer that the Fairmont is dedicated to meeting the evolving needs of its clientele.
“We take a sensitive approach to evolving the hotel, ensuring that we don’t lose the essence of Monte Carlo’s iconic hotel, but continually improve the facilities and technology to meet the demands of our guests,” said Pierre.
Most recently, the hotel has seen the renovation of its guest rooms and restaurant, as well as the renovation of Nikki beach in 2022. In addition, an improvement of its spa and fitness facilities will be launched this winter.
In 2022, the Fairmont Monte Carlo was recognised for its CSR initiatives.
“Every decision we make at the hotel we take into consideration the impact it will have on the environment, and measure it going forward,” said Pierre.
The hotel uses cutting-edge technology, such as its innovative heat pump which utilises seawater to generate air conditioning and heating in its facilities.
In addition, its restaurants use produce sourced from responsible and local farms, and recycle its compost and cooking oil.
“Our L’Horizon Rooftop restaurant features a bioclimatic structure over the terrace that offers an ingenious design and promotes natural ventilation,” shared Pierre, “it’s helped us to establish a minimal ecological footprint by avoiding unmeasured energy consumption, whilst creating a refreshing microclimate for our customers”.
The Fairmont Monte Carlo’s sustainability initiative has seen it decrease its electricity consumption by 20%.
As of 2034, the Fairmont Monte Carlo, as well as Accor’s entire collection of properties announce the removal of single use plastic from its facilities.
“I’m very proud to be part of a business which has taken such actions to help the environment,” added Pierre, “it’s been a big internal culture shift which has been fully adopted and respected by our team”.
For those travelling with children, the Fairmont Monte Carlo has an enriching Kid’s Club which runs fun programmes driven to share its sustainability values. It also offers a multilingual baby-sitting service.
Amongst the properties facilities are 19 meeting rooms and two ballrooms able to accommodate up to 1500 guests. Hosting everything from private parties to high-visibility conventions, the Fairmont Monte Carlo’s 2024 calendar will feature events such as the Tour de France, The Rolex Monte Carlo Masters, and the Monaco E-Prix.
