Just moments from the border of Monaco, a new boutique hotel has opened in the centre of Beausoleil, combining affordable comfort with a prime and accessible setting.
Alfred Hotels Monaco, the fifth property from the young French hotel group, combines stylish comfort with one of the region’s most accessible indulgences: a rooftop restaurant serving quality cocktails and affordable food with impeccable service and beautiful views across Port Hercules and the glittering Mediterranean.
A boutique gem overlooking Monaco
Nestled in what’s often dubbed the “Montmartre of Monaco”, Alfred Hotels Monaco is perched on the slopes of Beausoleil and offers guests an experience that combines effortless style with practical ease. The location is unbeatable – just a five-minute walk from Monaco’s train station, and easily accessible thanks to the public escalators and elevators that link Beausoleil to Monte-Carlo’s bustling centre.
Inside, the hotel’s 39 rooms are designed as elegant cocoons, showcasing warm natural tones, cosy finishes, and a dedication to French craftsmanship. From artisanal mattresses by Le Matelas Français to locally made soaps by Marius Fabre, every detail is curated for comfort and character.
Despite its boutique size, Alfred Hotels Monaco punches above its weight with thoughtful amenities and a design-first philosophy that elevates the mid-range offering.
Basta Pinsa: a rooftop with taste and views
The highlight of the property is undoubtedly the rooftop bar and restaurant, Basta Pinsa. Created in collaboration with Paris Society Consulting, the venue is as much a local hotspot as it is a guest favourite. Here, visitors can sip spritz cocktails and share pinsas in a laid-back yet stylish setting, while taking in panoramic views stretching from the hills behind Monaco down to the glimmering Mediterranean.
The service is attentive and genuine, the prices refreshingly fair – especially considering the setting. A freshly made pinsa (pizza) for €16 is a rarity anywhere near Monaco, and the quality of the ingredients makes it all the more exceptional.
The cocktails are meticulously crafted, the ambience relaxed and effortlessly cool, and the young team delivers it all with a professionalism that feels natural and sincere.
Redefining mid-range hospitality on the Riviera
Alfred Hotels was founded by three luxury hospitality veterans with a simple mission: to make the experience of a grand hotel accessible at a fair price. With nine hotels already established across France and plans to expand to 20 by 2026, the group is quickly gaining a reputation for delivering on that promise. Their latest outpost in Monaco may just be the best example yet.
With overwhelmingly positive early reviews, it’s clear Alfred Hotels Monaco is hitting the right notes. Whether for a weekend escape, a business stay, or a local night out, it redefines what’s possible in a place where affordability is almost an anomaly.
