Hotel Granduca, Tuscany, between Pisa and Lucca

Hotel Granduca, San Giuliano Terme

The four-star Hotel Granduca is located in the pleasant spa town of San Giuliano Terme, just a short distance from Pisa, in Italy's stunningly lovely region of Tuscany. Although mainly known for its famous Leaning Tower, there is actually much more to Pisa, which has an atmospheric medieval quarter and a clutch of fine Romanesque and Renaissance churches as well as plentiful restaurants and bars, superb museums and galleries ... and great shopping. This San Giuliano Terme hotel lies on the old Lucca road, just a few minutes from downtown Pisa and within easy reach of the motorway/highway and the airport. Recently constructed, it is surrounded by green parkland and located next to the town's impressive sports centre.

There are 170 comfortable, air-conditioned rooms here, all with private bathroom, direct-dial telephone, satellite TV and a minibar. Several rooms have pleasant terraces or balconies, some rooms have bathrooms adapted to accommodate guests with mobility issues and a mini-safe to store your personal belongings is available at reception. The hotel restaurant offers a selection of typical Tuscan dishes alongside cuisine from Italy as a whole and the rest of Europe. A special low-calorie menu is available for those watching their weight and a fine selection of Italian wines is also on offer. There is a lovely lounge/bar offering a selection of drinks and cocktails in a wonderfully relaxed setting, and a pretty outdoor children's play area.

The hotel has its own very well equipped, Wellness Centre which offers guests a range of therapeutic spa treatments using Algoermia - a specially treated marine algae said to have amazing health-giving properties. There is a 24-hour service on reception, a guest laundry service and an impressive range of meeting rooms and business support facilities. Car parking is free at this hotel in San Giuliano Terme, and video surveillance ensures optimum security.
