Centrally located in the heart of Rome, the 5-star Gran Melia is an absolute gem. The hotel, which is set upon a hill on the banks of the Tiber River, features opulent interiors and design rooms boasting spectacular views of the Vatican, Castel Sant’Angelo, Vicolo di Sant'Onofrio or the hotel’s own lush garden.

The hotel is a mere 2625 feet from the iconic St Peter’s Basilica and a leisurely 15-minute stroll from the vibrant Piazza Navona and Campo de’ Fiori. Even the bustling district of Trastevere is only a 10-minute walk away.

Rooms are a blend of modern and classic, with refined beige-and-wooden color schemes, contemporary furniture, and classic works of art. Each room is equipped with complimentary WiFi, an LCD TV, iPod docking station, and a Nespresso machine for those much-needed caffeine hits. Bathrooms are a delight, complete with luxury Clarins toiletries.

For those seeking relaxation, the on-site My Blend by Clarins spa is a haven. Complete with an outdoor vitality pool, sensory shower, sauna, Turkish Bath and lounges, this wellness center offers a wide range of treatments including facials and massages. The hotel's swimming pool, nestled in the 7500-m² garden, features a hydromassage pool and is open for the summer season.

Gran Melia Rome – The Leading Hotels of the World offers guests a buffet breakfast filled with cold dishes, seasonal and local products. Hot dishes are available upon request.
