History[edit]




The original Hotel Metropole


The Hotel Metropole was built in 1889, designed by Hans-Georg Tersling.[1]Prince Andrew of Greece and Denmark died there in 1944.[2] Lebanese developer Nabil Boustany bought the hotel from the British Grand Metropolitan group in 1980.[3] Boustany spent $140 million gutting and rebuilding the aging hotel into a modern luxury hotel.[4] The hotel reopened in 1988 as Le Metropole Palace.[5] The opening was attended by Prince Rainier, Prince Albert and Princess Stephanie.[6] The hotel was operated by Conrad Hotels, the international division of Hilton Hotels.[7] In September 2003, the hotel closed for a major renovation,[8] reopening in July 2004 with its name shortened to Hotel Metropole Monte-Carlo to match the original hotel. It has 126 guest rooms, including 64 suites.[9]


American television host Mike Bongiorno died there in 2009.[10][11]
