Le Meridien Lingotto, Turin

Welcome to Le Meridien Lingotto

Le Meridien Lingotto has been spectacularly converted from the ancient Fiat automobile factory by the renowned architect Renzo Piano.

A perfect blend of history, art and culture, each detail is dedicated to the future. Guests can jog on the famous testing track, located on the roof of the former car factory, and also benefit from the hotel's direct link to the Lingotto Convention Centre.

The Lingotto, a unique building and a symbol of Turin, is also a rare example of restoration of an industrial area on a grand scale. It is home to 8 Gallery, a leisure and shopping centre that is both 'ideal and nearby' and a place to meet, experience fashion and to savour and find inspiration in different cultures.

Inaugurated in September 2002, on the top floor of the Lingotto, the art gallery Pinacoteca Giovanni e Marella Agnelli was offered to the city by the president of Fiat.
