The Hotel was in the right location to visit Florence with easy access to the Train Station. The comfort was most welcomne after a day's sightseeing

Ideal location in Florence. Walking distance for site seeing, shopping and eating. Day trips can be arranged by Hotel staff, we chose trips to Siena and Chianti and excellent way to discover Tuscany.

Hotel Swimming pool was smaller than expected, Hotel pictures missleading - initially disapointed - however when used the pool and surrounding facilities were very good. Taking into consideration location - excellent.

Most helpful staff and delicious wide selection at buffet breakfast

Poor TV reception and choice of stations

I really have to say that in the 3 hotels I stayed in Italy, the whole hotel experience in Grand Hotel Minerva was superb. It really made my Italy trip as a whole a lot more pleasant and enjoyable. The location was good as it is adjacent to the renowned Santa Maria Minerva Church and facing the piazza. I had a room with two balconies facing the piazza and the church and enjoyed a really good view. Not only that I can also see the top of the duomo from the balconies which was really a beautiful view. The restaurant was good quality and breakfast was not bad if you used the Italian standard to compare. The hotel room was big with very comfortable furnitures and new contemporary design. I felt like home there. Most interestingly they have a new roof top pool opened most of the day until very late in the evening which also serves appetisers and drinks. We had a nice evening settled down quietly by the pool side and had light dining with wine overlooking the duomo and the church. It was one of the most romantic evenings we had in Italy! The hotel has lived up with it's claim - Real Hospitality and Real People.

Nothing except the walk from the train station was only 5-8 minutes but if you have a lot of heavy luggages to handle, it can be quite hectic. As we have lots of heavy luggages and the roads from the station were all very bumpy with uneven rocks so it wasn't easy for us to even take that relatively short walk.

It is close to railway station and you can walk to the sights of Florence . Nice cosy pool on top of the hotel . Service excellent , very attentive.

Outside of hotel needs facelift , much nicer inside. Bit expensive for room , but all Florence was expensive.

The Grand Hotel Minerva is in a very central and beautiful location only a 5 minute walk from the train station. It overlooks a famous piazza which affords great people watching! The interiors and staff were of the highest standard and we were upgraded to a suite on the 5th floor.

Loved the location of the hotel and the pool.The bed was very comfortable and the room sparkling clean.

The hotel is beautiful and in a good location. The rooms are big, white decor, gorgeous bathroom and still plenty of room with an extra bed, however they do charge 121 euros per night for this so the rooms are expensive as is the mini bar! Also if you have kids its better to order off the A La Carte menu rather than paying for buffet which is about 30 euros.
