AN extremely fancy hotel suite inspired by Princess Grace of Monaco in Monte Carlo next month.
The suite is the crowning glory of four years of renovations at the Hotel de Paris in the city – but you'll need very deep pockets to stay there.
The posh suite covers 9,795 square feet of space – that's TEN TIMES the size of the average UK home.
It also spans two floors, so sleeping quarters are separate from the reception areas, with nearly every room getting incredible views out over the sea.
As well as several lounge spaces, guests can also entertain on a private terrace and a lavishly decorated dining room.
There are also two huge bedrooms, a sauna and steam room and an office, all in cream and gold, with crystal chandeliers.
It's unlikely anyone apart from celebrities and millionaires will ever get to see the inside though.
The suite costs an eye-watering £34,000 per night to stay in – that's £7,000 more than the average annual UK salary.
Film star Grace Kelly became Princess of Monaco in 1956 when she married Prince Rainier of Monaco.
She was known as one of the most beautiful women in the world and the Hotel de Paris was her favourite place to stay.
Photographs of Princess Grace decorate the room, after they were donated by Monaco’s royal family, including pictures of her at a film premiere.
A frame that Princess Grace made herself from dried flowers is also on display.
It’s not been revealed how much the suite cost to renovate, but a member of staff at the Hotel de Paris told CNN: "You are buying a dream experience. Dreams have no cost.”
The suite is the latest in a long line of hotels which cater for the super-rich.
Read on to find out about some of the priciest – and plushest – hotel suites in the world.
