“A great place for an overnight stop”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed October 7, 2012

Hotel Minerva has very friendly and helpful staff, the breakfast was great, and the room was fine. The room had clean furniture, and a good shower room. It was quiet enough at night, and I would stay there again. We paid 89 Euros for a double room with breakfast, and that was a reasonable price. The receptionist in the morning was a very good guide, and told us what was where and how long to walk etc. She pointed out the best place from which to photograph the leaning tower, and she was right. She also recommended a fabulous restaurant with a fixed price lunch- which was excellent, and very good value indeed.

“I have seen better!”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed September 23, 2012

There are so many hotels in Pisa so I had to search a lot on tripadvisor. I dont now what to say. Hotel is located near to the river and the center, around 25 minutes walk from tower. You can stay for two nights because you dont spend to much time in room . There is free wifi in the room what is ok and we got breakfast which was for Italy very good. Hotel is missing atmosphere, maybe need refurnishing. Next time I will seek for another one.

“Good location & Friendly staff”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed September 20, 2012

We booked the hotel via the Tourist Information in Pisa as we had only one day in Pisa. A great resource and would definitely use it again.
Ten minutes after booking we arrived at the hotel. We were greeted with a warm welcome . Later on that evening we asked where we could get a nice meal. He was very helpful and the restaurant was exactly what we wanted.
Good location in a quiet area, approx 15mins walk to the Leaning Tower.
The rooms are basic, the air con was great. The bathroom was a little tired, however, we didn't mind too much as we were only there a night. Breakfast was
We had a glass of Prosecco in the small garden and it was served with a bread roll and salami . A nice touch.
Breakfast was the usual basic continental style and adequate.
We paid €90 for a room. A fair price for what we got at short notice.

“Very friendly small hotel with excellent service”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed August 8, 2012

We stayed 2 nights at the end of July 2012. We had a "family" room which has bunk beds and a double bed in one room with en-suite bathroom.. The room was very good value for money and the beds were comfortable and the room quiet. We eventually found the controls for the air conditioning and once we found these the room was very pleasant. The staff were without exception very pleasant and went out of their way to be helpful. Breakfast was very quiet and there was a nice range of food, juices and coffee. Location was good with a short walk to the centre, there were a lot of nice cafes and restaurants nearby. Overall, an old fashioned family hotel with great service and very good value. We would book it again if returning to Pisa.

Room Tip: We were in the front of the hotel but it wasn't noisy
