Pros:

We stayed here for three nights. The room was very nice and well decorated, but the expel-air didn’t work at all which is unacceptable given it is windowless. We spoke to the lady on reception about it, but no action was taken to our knowledge. It certainly didn’t work for the remainder of our stay.

Is seems a bit of a stretch to classify this establishment as a hotel, given that there is no restaurant or bar service outside of breakfast hours which are 7 am to 11 am - not even a coffee bar, so for us it should be classified as a bed and breakfast offering.

The food was certainly good and fresh, but the dining area is totally inadequate resulting in very heavy traffic in a very limited space.

The property boasts 70 rooms so the clientele could number 140+ when fully occupied.

The location is very good which is probably a large part of their 4 star rating, but they could better serve their clients and themselves by ceding more space to catering and all day cafe services.

We did enjoy our stay in good part, but not sufficiently to entice us to return.

Pros:

Hotel location is convenient to dining & transportation. Staff is friendly and helpful. They also provided a water fountain station on our floor to fill up drinking containers - much appreciated. I wished they had an ice machine on each floor as well because we had to go to the lobby each day to get ice cubes for our drinks provided in a bucket upon our inquiry. We also noticed a cappuccino making machine in the lobby but made accessible only for those who paid for breakfast in the morning otherwise the cabinet housing the cappuccino machine is closed shut. As a goodwill gesture the hotel should leave the cabinet open for all their patrons to get a complimentary cup of cappuccino throughout the day while relaxing in the lobby like other hotels did during our tour of France.

Pros:

Great location for dining in the old town - shops close and a tram for getting to the station and around. We took the train to Monaco which was easy to do. Hotel very clean and lovely to walk out across the road to the promenade and the beach. You can just go on the public area- pebbly though!- or can pay for a lounger - quite expensive €20+- the sea shelves quite steeply and if the sea is strong a challenge getting out but we made it. A great place to stay. We went for a cocktail at the Negresco and have to say the service there was really slow and not worth the high cost for a drink.

Pros:

Our room was booked as a “sea view,” but we were on the 2nd floor and could only view the ocean if we went out on the balcony and stretched to look. Unfortunately, the balcony had old used cigarette butts and was too small to sit or enjoy the view.

We also visited in late August. Apparently there was a huge outdoor event happening during the same weekend of our visit. The music and public speeches were VERY loud and right outside our window. Thankfully the city requires quiet after 11:30PM, but it would have been nice to go to bed earlier than midnight.

No one warned us that our stay would be disrupted by this loud event. I was disappointed with our stay and would not book with Albert 1er again as a result of this negative experience.
