Where to stay at the Monaco F1 Grand Prix

Staying within Monte Carlo itself during a Grand Prix weekend is something of an unrealistic option for many attendees of the Monaco Grand Prix. However, there are still options available on Booking.com – if you’re willing to pay around £1000 per night.

Most people opt to stay in the stunning city of Nice, just a short ride or drive down the coast. Alternative options are also Ventimiglia, across the Italian border and just 40 minutes’ drive from Monaco, as well as Menton (France) which lies between Monaco and Ventimiglia.
