Tetris Italia is the general contractor for the construction of the W Florence, the Jll group company winning the contract for 119 rooms, annexed facilities, a roof garden and work on the façades of the ex Grand Hotel Majestic in Florence.
Close to Florence’s railway station
Owned by the Tuscan company Progetto Majestic, the property is in Piazza dell'Unità d'Italia in the city's historic centre, close to Santa Maria Novella Station and the central Via de' Tornabuoni. The complete redevelopment will unify the various existing buildings into a single 5-star unit. The building has six floors and three basement levels, and renovations will focus on the environment and wellness as expressly requested by the owners and sole director Roberto Puccini.
“The project will be a new contemporary city landmark”
The project also includes a new ground living and reception area, a lounge bar and a restaurant, which will be developed around a partially covered inner courtyard. The lower floors will have a spa & wellness area, a meeting and event space, and technical and service areas, and work on the site has just started.
“The conversion of the former Majestic hotel into a luxury hotel is an example of the appeal of Italian cities like Florence. We are thrilled to be part of this project, which aims at become a new contemporary landmark for the city.”
