Hôtel Hermitage, Monte-Carlo
Built between 1890 and 1896, the Hôtel Hermitage Monte-Carlo overlooks Port Hercule and the Mediterranean. Your Hermitage transfer can start at Nice airport just as easily as at Monaco station.
The hotel and its neighbourhood
Beneath the winter garden dome
The architect Jean Marquet built the Hermitage in the Belle Époque style, and Gustave Eiffel took part in the work. The dome of the winter garden, at the heart of the hotel, is credited to him. The Salle Belle Époque, used for receptions, is a listed room. Like the casino, the Hermitage belongs to the Société des Bains de Mer.
Port Hercule below
From the terraces, you look straight down on Port Hercule and its yachts, with the Rock across the water. A direct passage leads to the Thermes Marins de Monte-Carlo spa. The hotel marks the western edge of the Carré d'Or, the casino district.
Our chauffeur services at Hôtel Hermitage Monte-Carlo
By train to Monaco
Monaco station has been underground since 1999 and is served by regional trains from all along the coast. With luggage, we collect you at the exit and drive you up to the Hermitage. By road, the journey from Nice Airport takes 50 minutes, from €115, booked in advance. The car stops below the Belle Époque façade, and your bags go in with you.
One reception, flights at all hours
The Salle Belle Époque hosts gala dinners and receptions. Are your guests landing in Nice throughout the day? We run a shuttle around their flights, driving each arrival to the hotel. After the evening, those staying in Monaco or elsewhere on the coast are taken back one by one.
Villefranche and Beaulieu
For a quiet day, Villefranche-sur-Mer and its deep natural harbour lie to the west, on the Lower Corniche. Beaulieu-sur-Mer comes next, with its marina. The chauffeur brings you back to Monte-Carlo in time for sunset over the port.
Riviera Private Driver is an independent chauffeur service, not affiliated with the hotel.

How long does it take from Nice Airport to Hôtel Hermitage Monte-Carlo?
About 50 minutes to reach Hôtel Hermitage Monte-Carlo (32 km), as a guide only: depending on the season and the time of day, the journey may take longer. Your chauffeur tracks your flight: if it is late, they wait for you and the waiting time is free.
We are coming to Monaco by regional train: will you collect us at the station for the Hermitage?
Yes. The chauffeur meets you at the station exit, takes your suitcases and drives you up to the hotel.
For a reception at the Hermitage, our guests land at different times: how does it work?
Send us the list of flights: each guest is collected on arrival in Nice and driven to the hotel, without waiting for the others.
Are your prices fixed?
Yes. The price is shown before you book, including VAT and per vehicle, and it does not change afterwards.
Do you provide child seats?
Yes: child car seats and booster seats. Just mention it when you book.
Can I cancel my booking?
Yes. Up to 6 hours before pick-up, you can cancel free of charge or change your booking yourself, from your booking page (and during the hour after a booking made later than that). After that, contact us directly and we will do our very best.
How do I pay?
Directly on the website, by card, when you book: your booking is confirmed straight away. You can also pay in the car, by card (American Express accepted) or in cash.
What is the difference between a private chauffeur (VTC) and a taxi?
A VTC (private-hire chauffeur) is booked in advance and its price is fixed when you book. A taxi can be taken without booking, at a rank or in the street, and its fare usually depends on the meter. Riviera Private Driver is a VTC service.
