    Is that a pretty "grand" hotel?

    For same price, I prefer the new "Bay Hotel".
    But, during F1 Monaco GP, to see Formula 1, this hotel is the best with "Hotel de Paris" of course ;)

    With Monaco being tapped out land wise, I've read rumours of constructing islands in the sea to futher growth. Any truth to this?

    Actually, isn't it called the Fairmont now, rather than the Grand (nee Loew's)?

    It's already been done in years past- the entire Fontvielle neighborhood is built on reclaimed land.

    I believe prince Albert doesn't like the plans, because he fears it'll damage the ecosystem in the sea around Monaco.

    Yes of course, the name is Fairmont Hotel.
    Loew's during very a long time, after Monte Carlo Grand Hotel and recently Fairmont Hotel.

    Excellent photos, Gilles! For those unfamiliar with MC, I believe the first shot shows the view as you approach the heliport (located in Fontvielle, Monaco, just across the border- such as it is- from Cap d"Ail, France) by air- I often take the 'copter from L'Aeroport Nice-Cote d'Azur to MC when I go for the GP, and the view on a clear day is gorgeous! The second and third shots seem to show the Fontvielle neighborhood from atop the Rocher, which gives you a great perspective on that part of the Principality.
