What to See in Saint Roman
From its sunlit promontories, Saint Roman reveals breathtaking views over the sea and the nearby Larvotto beaches. You can also discover the architectural heritage of the 1960s, the period when Monaco’s first skyscrapers transformed this once quiet area, foreshadowing its present-day modernity. Even today, this bold verticality blends harmoniously with lush green spaces.
The Odeon Tower
Standing at 170 meters, the Odeon Tower embodies Monaco’s architectural boldness. A true icon of La Rousse – Saint Roman, it rises above the Principality like a modern lighthouse, offering panoramic views over Monte-Carlo and as far as the Italian border. Its exceptional apartments, personalized services and spectacular Sky Penthouse with a suspended pool make it an incomparable address, highly sought after by an international clientele.
The residential district and its panoramic views

Its prestigious buildings — from the Odeon Tower to Parc Saint Roman and Château Périgord — benefit from an elevated position that reveals striking panoramic views over the coastline. A place where contemporary elegance meets the beauty of the Mediterranean.
Gardens and green spaces
In Saint-Roman, the architectural heritage flourishes within a lush, green setting, carefully shaped over time. Hanging gardens, planted terraces, and tree-filled spaces have been designed to soften the verticality of the buildings. These cool, refreshing oases contribute to urban biodiversity while offering residents a moment of connection with nature, set against the backdrop of the sea.
