Why stay in Menton
Menton gives race-week visitors a calmer seaside base, direct rail access to Monaco and more space to reset after crowded race days.
How to get there
Use the train where possible and expect busy platforms around Monaco. Check late returns and any race-week access changes before travel.
How to plan your stay
Book early, choose the apartment fit first, and avoid assuming last-minute availability during Grand Prix week.
Why it matters
A major book-ahead reason to choose Menton as a calmer seaside base for Monaco race week.
The Formula 1 Monaco Grand Prix is one of the most iconic weekends on the Cote d'Azur: practice, qualifying and the race itself take place on the streets of the Principality.
The atmosphere mixes motorsport and Riviera social life: yachts in the harbour, fan zones, terrace viewing and very high prices across Monaco and nearby towns.
How to plan your stay
Expect high demand, changed access routes and busy trains. Check the official programme and ticketing before booking travel.

Practical notes
Confirmed date
Where it happens
- Circuit area: streets around Port Hercule, Casino, the tunnel and central Monaco. A useful guest reference is Port Hercule, 98000 Monaco.
- By train from Menton: Gare de Monaco-Monte-Carlo, with exits toward the port and casino area.
With children
Good with older children who already enjoy racing. For small children, the crowds, noise and long day can be too intense.
Official links, tickets and prices
Official organiser: Automobile Club de Monaco. Tickets are sold through ACM and authorised ticket services.
Prices vary sharply by day and sector, from high grandstand prices to VIP, yacht and terrace packages. Treat Monaco GP as a very high-demand, high-price weekend and verify all details officially.
Practical tips
- From Menton, train travel is usually the most practical option on race days.
- Book Menton accommodation early: even though the race is in Monaco, demand rises across the eastern Riviera.
- With older children, consider practice or qualifying for a shorter and slightly less intense experience than race day.
