My boyfriend and i did not stay in the hotel itself so we cannot comment on these facilities. We visited the hotel's rooftop restaurant - it has a spectatular location with beautiful views. The positives end there. The food choices are poor (we should have left after seeing the menu), the service average, the food - awful and overpriced. After... more

This was our second stay at the Minerva. Our flght arrived early and we were to the hotel by 10 AM. We were pleasantly surprised to find that our rooms were ready. Our room was a junior suite and had a lovely terazza. The rooms were very clean and well maintained. The hotel itself was spotless. The staff was very... more

This hotel is located in what is perhaps one of the best locaitons in Rome. I have been to Rome about 8 times, and each time I stay in a different hotel for the new experience. Grand Hotel De La Minerva was the most expensive hotel I stayed in and I can tell you that my colleagues agree with me... more

Dont expect a 5 Star Hotel when you get there, except for the price and location. You will pay 5 Star prices and if all you need is to be in the middle of Rome so you can walk everywhere, then you are ok. Otherwise, I would best describe it as a 3 Star Hotel in US Standards more

Grand Hotel de la Minerve was recommended to me by a close personal acquantance who had frequently used the hotel many years ago. After he had raved about it so much, we decided to proceed and book 3 nights there. Unfortunately from check-in to check-out the service was horrendous! After pulling up to the hotel, there was no bellman to... more

Dear Guest, I deeply regret to hear of all the inconveniences that spoiled the guest's stay in Rome. Rest assured that his comments will be thoroughly examined and shared with the Department Heads involved. We are proud of our hotel and happy to consider ourselves at the full disposal of our guests, as most of them acknowledge and appreciate. Therefore,...

An expedia booked room resulted in a room on the sixth floor for our Saturday arrival. This floor is no penthouse because with the roof terrace above we were kept awake until 130am by the dragging of tables and the wait staff running through the corridor with the dirty plates and washing in the small hours. A Fawlty Towers moment... more

The Hotel Minerve used to be a Royal Palace and has a enviable position in the heart of this historic city, 30 seconds walk from the Pantheon, 2 minutes from the Spanish Steps and 5 from the Piazza Navonna. This really is the centre of the tourusts Rome, and the price charged by this hotel reflects this. The card on... more

It is probably one of the most well known Hotels in Rome. I have decided to book there for my Roman latest stay. I must say that reviews on this Hotel do not help. Nevertheless, I ended up booking there since I got a special deal. Then I thought I could compare history, other opinions and what is my perception... more

Location - Absolutely perfect for us, as we weren't too bothered about the Roman ruins. 1 minute to Pantheon. 5 minutes to Piazza Navone (and open top bus stop). 10 minutes to Trevi fountain. 15 minutes to Spanish Steps. Same to Vatican (or 2 minutes to bus route if you don't want to walk). Staff - Helpful, efficient and approachable.... more

Beautiful property in a very fascinating spot in Rome. Our room was decently large and very quiet. Some parts of the rooms are renovated, other not so much. Overall, very good standard. Bed slighty too stiff. What we liked most was the quiet elegance ad the atmosphere in general. Responsive staff. A bit too expensive. more
