Located in the heart of beautiful Florence, 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, characterised by a warm and welcoming atmosphere which has earned it the reputation as on of the best regarded hotels Florence 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 Florence, and only a short walk from the Duomo, Ponte Vecchio and The Ufizzi Gallery, as well as Florence's many other sights and attractions.
