The Spa Métropole by Guerlain Is Now Open at Hôtel Métropole Monte-Carlo

Hôtel Métropole Monte‑Carlo has opened a new destination for serenity and relaxation in the heart of the Principality: The Spa Métropole by Guerlain. The Spa Metropole by Guerlain is a collaboration between the House of Guerlain and the Hotel Metropole Monte-Carlo. It embodies holistic wellness, guided by two exceptional houses. The opening of the Spa by Guerlain is a major milestone in the renovation of this hotel, which will include new rooms later this summer.

Designed by interior architect Samy Itani of Itani & Courtois, the spa features clean lines in a calm, light‑filled setting, reflecting a place of quiet retreat. Although this is the first direct collaboration between Hôtel Métropole Monte‑Carlo and Samy Itani, he had previously worked alongside Didier Gomez, the designer behind both the original Spa and the restaurant Yoshi. The hotel and House of Guerlain were immediately impressed by his refined, contemporary vision. The mineral aesthetic blends stone, raw wooden and textured surfaces in natural shades, while focused lighting emphasizes form and shapes. Every element embraces the craft and heritage of the House of Guerlain.

Art plays a central role as Hôtel Métropole Monte‑Carlo is home to an exceptional collection of modern and contemporary works – including Picasso, Francis Bacon and Andy Warhol – displayed in the Lobby Bar. Within the spa, three poetic, silk‑paper sculptures by Claudine Drai are woven into the design, reinforcing introspection and emotional resonance while blending seamlessly into the architecture of the space.

Sustainability was also a key player in the redesign of the Spa Métropole by Guerlain. Natural, durable materials like stone, raw wooden and mineral pigments are used to reduce environmental impact, while creating a serene organic aesthetic. This eco‑conscious approach aligns with Guerlain’s long‑standing commitment to sustainability; most notably its Guerlain for Bees programme, dedicated to preserving biodiversity and protecting bee populations worldwide.

The spa has 10 treatment rooms, which are dedicated to Guerlain rituals. These include the Ultimate Black Orchid (the masterpiece of Guerlain skincare), as well as other signature rituals. This unique treatment combines expert technique with the regenerative powers of the Black Orchid, revealing skin that is radiant and revitalised. Guerlain treatments begin with a thorough individual diagnosis. This ensures that each guest is given care tailored to his or her skin type and desired results.

Three exclusive rituals have been specially created for Hôtel Métropole Monte‑Carlo to honour the spirit of the Principality:

• Golden Sand (1 h 30) pays tribute to the Monegasque Riviera on a heated quartz massage table—a rare feature in the Guerlain spa network. Golden quartz stones radiate soothing warmth that envelopes body and soul in a momentary escape. Priced at 400€ for 90mn.
• Monaco Glow (1 h 30) celebrates the elegance of the Côte d’Azur. White quartz accessories and a cotton veil smooth facial features and relax the eyes, concluding with a Guerlain make‑up finish for a radiant complexion. Priced from 350€ for 90mn.
• Puissance du Rocher (1 h 30) combines fluid massage movements, stretching and joint mobilisation with therapeutic stone accessories for deep, lasting revitalisation. Priced at 350€ for 90mn

Treatments at the spa are designed to cater for everyone, including tailored options for men as well as sensory experiences for kids and elevated rituals aimed at couples. The Art of Guerlain Makeup offers a rich palette of bespoke beauty services, combining expertise with precision. Every treatment is an immersive, all‑encompassing experience: advanced techniques revitalise and awaken the senses, while Guerlain’s approach blends pleasure and relaxation with performance for immediate visible results.

Dedicated to hand and foot care, an additional area by Bastien Gonzalez offers curated pedicures and manicures. Finally, a sauna, hammam and ultra‑modern fitness studio complete this exceptional sensory journey.

The Spa Métropole by Guerlain: an art of living, a signature of excellence. The ultimate in luxury, tradition and innovation, the Spa Metropole by Guerlain is designed for those who are looking for an unforgettable experience.
