Located in the heart of beautiful Firenze, this exclusive four-star
superior hotel has recently been embellished by a full restoration by
famed Italian architects Edoardo Detti and Carlo Scarpa. Today, Grand
Hotel Minerva is one of the most prestigious and historic hotels in the
city, characterized by a warm and welcoming atmosphere which has earned
it the reputation as one of the best regarded hotels Firenze has to
offer.
The hotel, one of the oldest in town, offers just over a hundred
elegantly furnished rooms in different styles and sizes, all overlooking
the square or the cloisters of the church of Santa Maria Novella, which
façade was designed by Leon Battista Alberti. The building goes back to
the Middle Age and became a hotel in the nineteenth century. Today the
hotel is part of Historical Sites of Italy. The winter garden of the
hotel is home to a statue of Maestro Emilio Greco named "La Grande
Bagnante". Other masterpieces of this famous artist are displayed in the
meeting rooms, inside restaurant "I Chiostri" and common areas of the
hotel. The Grand Hotel Minerva represents the ideal place to renew
oneself and enjoy this beautiful city. From the panoramic roof-top,
complete with bar and pool, you can admire the beauty of Florentine
hills and its monuments.
The Grand Hotel Minerva is a deluxe hotel situated on the Piazza Santa
Maria Novella, in the heart of historic Firenze, and only a short walk
from the Duomo, Ponte Vecchio and The Ufizzi Gallery, as well as
Firenze's many other sights and attractions.
