Sounds like a great trip, despite the occasional hiccup.
Whilst the HdP is very nice, I've always since the late 70's tried to stay when in Monaco at the Beach Plaza, (still might be to be the only hotel with a private beach) when it used to be a Trust house Forte quite modern, with being on Princess Grace Avenue it was always that bit quieter, and only a short stroll to the main square etc. Tried what used to called Loews hotel, which was ok.
It was useful having a HO in Monaco, especially around F1 GP time. I could never get over seeing the elephant in its zoo enclosure on the side of the hill.
