Lock in a great price for Hotel Minerva – rated 8 by recent guests!

to get started.

The property was well situated.. It was close to the train station which took about 10mins to walk and 10 mins walk to the town centre. The hotel was comfortable and quiet.

Rawinia, New Zealand

Coffee machine and secure car parking (though expensive).

Bernard, United Kingdom

Staff were very helpful. Location fantastic as we were driving. Easy to get to. The room had a view over Sienna that at night was beautiful. Would highly recommend.

Glenda, Australia

Breakfast is aaaaahmazing! Everything's fresh, they do scrambled eggs and OMG they even have a pancake machine! Our room had a gorgeous view over the city, airconditioned + mini bar to use, beds are very comfortable. You can tell the hotel is run by a woman, with art and little details everywhere. Parking service is great and safe (€20 per night) and you walk into the city in only a few minutes. So happy I found this hotel!

Suzanne, Netherlands

wide choice at breakfast (fruits, pastries, cereals, sausages etc.) spacious shower room provided slippers amazing views from terrace superb location close to the city center private parking in garage

Jelena, United Kingdom

Very extensive breakfast service with many choices.

Janine, United States of America

Tip: ask for room 49 as it has probably the best view over Siena. The hotel is in a great location - a 5 min walk to the centre of Siena. The room was a good size, and clean. A good hotel to stay in for a short visit.

Céline, United Kingdom

Rooms are a reasonable size, well decorated and very clean, bed comfortable, good shower. Lift is a plus point. Breakfast is good quality well prepared hot food and a wide choice. Hotel private car park is very convenient but 12 Euro per 24 hours.

Alan, United Kingdom

Great location for town centre. Nice, modern, quirky decor. Friendly staff, speaking good English, although a bit of phrase book Italian goes down well. Clean, comfortable room, with good air con. Excellent buffet breakfast. Left luggage facility on checkout very useful.

James, United Kingdom

Perfect fine hotel for exploring Siena. Nothing special but just what we needed for one night.

눉every early morning (around 8 - 8:30 am) cleaners would gather outside the room and chat/laugh. The sound isolation is only good to street noise, but not inside hotel. Noisy air ventilation

“Satisifed with Hotel Minerva”
- • Leisure trip
- • Group of friends
- • 2 rooms
- • Stayed 4 nights
눉Our room was not as clean upon check-in as it should've been. The floors were dirty and the bathroom smelled of urine. I mentioned this to housekeeping the next day and it was resolved so obviously some part of the bathroom was overlooked before we checked in and the floor as well. Also, on one of the days of our stay, my room never got any service even though I mentioned it to the front desk that no one from housekeeping even knocked while I was in the room even though I did not have the do not disturb sign outside. Even after that, no one came.The front desk told me that if they don't have our room key at the front desk, then housekeeping doesn't know to make up our room. Yet it was made up the other days when we didn't give the front desk our key. So there's no consistency to this rule and we were not told upon check-in to drop off our keys upon leaving.
눇Very extensive breakfast service with many choices.

“Great view from Room 49, but unfriendly staff: a good hotel for short stays”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Economy Double Room
- • Stayed 1 night
눉The hotel staff were not particularly friendly, nor polite. The "terrace" advertised on the hotel's page is actually a very small balcony attached to the conference room - the view from room 49 is much better.
눇Tip: ask for room 49 as it has probably the best view over Siena. The hotel is in a great location - a 5 min walk to the centre of Siena. The room was a good size, and clean. A good hotel to stay in for a short visit.

눉There is no restaurant for evening meals, only breakfast is served, although there is a restaurant opposite. The location is a 15 minute walk away from the centre of town.
눇Rooms are a reasonable size, well decorated and very clean, bed comfortable, good shower. Lift is a plus point. Breakfast is good quality well prepared hot food and a wide choice. Hotel private car park is very convenient but 12 Euro per 24 hours.

“Clean hotel, ok breaksfast and unpleasant stafff”
- • Leisure trip

눉The staff wasn't welcoming nor helpful. The breakfast at the hotel was an unexptional poor experience. The woman working at the breakfast was obviously overworked and stressed, which led to ruining our morning. She wasn't alone so I asked for two things as I thought there was capsity. I asked for help to cleaning a table as there were none vacant without loads of dirty dishes on and also asked if it was possible to get something refilled at the buffet as it clearly hadn't been refilled for a while. This led to her telling me off. She was extremely unpleasant. Additionally she wouldn't let it go and continously kept telling me how the breakfast service worked, obviously agitated. After this she kept on cleaning around us making as much as noise as possible making sure we had an awful breakfast.
눇The hotel was clean.

눉Both nights there were really loud parties in the University near the hotel, if the students do this often - the hotel needs better windows, they didn't help at all. We had to sleep with earplugs
눇The view of the city is incredible, check that you get a room with the view! It takes only 10-15 minutes walk to the central square and also 10-15 minutes to the train station
