This beautiful building was a hotel for the rich and famous from 1903 until the beginning of the great war in 1914 when it was used as a military hospital. It was closed in 1932/33 but in 1936 was transformed into apartments.
Tours of some parts of the building, such as the beautiful Winter Garden, are available to the public.

I hope they can keep it in repair. Glenda and I looked through some of our books of Monaco and Provence this evening, including a book of the villas of the region. Julie, Glenda and I discussed possibly a 10th anniversary return next May.
It needs work done...
I really like these beautiful details.
Great architecture,- and thanks for sharing it with us.
What a grand, fantastic place/palace but even so, it needs a little tender loving care also I see...
