One year after the acquisition of “ Snow Palace » in Courchevel 1850, the Monte-Carlo Société des Bains de Mer (SBM) Group reveals the name of its ambitious hotel project: “ Monte-Carlo One – Courchevel “. This is the first variation of its new international brand “ Monte-Carlo One – Hotels & Residences », dedicated to the development of hotel and residential activities. This historic investment for the Group, outside the Principality, illustrates the company’s new international dynamic, and its desire to develop new growth drivers. The objective: to live the experience and the Art of living Monte-Carlo style, in a future collection of establishments highlighting know-how and expertise recognized around the world for more than 160 years.
« Monte-Carlo One – Hotels & Residences », an international ambition in the luxury hotel industry, with inspiring destinations, to create addresses signed by big names in design and architecture.
With the launch of the brand “ Monte-Carlo One – Hotels & Residences », Monte-Carlo Société des Bains de Mer, which benefits from a strong reputation and globally recognized expertise in the field of luxury hotels and games, is continuing its international development strategy, with the aim of install where its customers travel.

The name “ Monte Carlo One » makes the link between the heritage and the future of the SBM
The « one » refers to the contemporary dimension of Place du Casino, embodied by the new One Monte-Carlo complex. A first-rate address that blends with the prestige of the Monte-Carlo Casino, the Hôtel de Paris Monte-Carlo, and the new Café de Paris complex. It is also the incarnation of tomorrow’s heritage, of a positioning constantly aiming for excellence and therefore the expression of a new era, that of a singular vision of ultra luxury, hospitality, gastronomy and exclusivity.

The ambition of the Monte-Carlo Société des Bains de Mer Group is to open the doors of “ Monte-Carlo One – Courchevel » to its first customers, for the 2026/2027 winter season. Nestled in the heart of the prestigious Jardin Alpin, this establishment, once renovated, will offer a harmonious marriage between design and compliance with the most efficient environmental standards.
