The Grand Hotel Mediterraneo has a wonderful view over the famous river Arno banks (called “Lungarni”), near the beautiful Piazza Santa Croce, with a stunning panorama of the city Renaissance beauties along the river Arno and on the Florentine hills. Whether you are staying in Florence for work or for a sightseeing tour, you will find the warmth of the typical Florentine hospitality, in a modern and comfortable setting. The hotel position is ideal for its closeness to the city historical centre. The Grand Hotel Mediterraneo is very close to the most important monuments, including Piazza Santa Croce, Piazzale Michelangelo, the Uffizi Gallery and Ponte Vecchio.
