Palais de la Méditerranée, Art Deco casino and hotel on Promenade des Anglais, Nice, France
Palais de la Méditerranée is a nine-story hotel and casino building with a white facade featuring geometric patterns along the Promenade des Anglais. The structure houses residential rooms, gaming areas, dining facilities, and event spaces integrated throughout its floors.
The building was constructed in 1929 according to designs by architects Charles and Marcel Dalmas, commissioned by American millionaire Frank Jay Gould. Its facade received historical monument status in 1989 for its architectural significance.
This establishment became a symbol of sophisticated leisure on the French Riviera, where guests from around the world gathered for entertainment and social events. The venue continues to represent the glamour associated with this coastal destination.
The site is directly accessible from the Promenade des Anglais and easy to reach on foot. Visitors should be aware that different sections of the building have specific purposes and regulations, so it helps to familiarize yourself with the layout beforehand.
The building was constructed over a series of air chambers designed for natural ventilation and temperature control. This original engineering solution remains partially intact beneath modern renovations and contributes to the structure's environmental efficiency.
