Shiba
The property was clean and centrally located, close to all the attractions. However, the main issue is the walls. If you’re on the fourth floor you can easily hear noise from other rooms and the reception.
Rachel
Spent a few days in Rome during a heat wave. The room ac worked wonders. The location of the hotel allowed us to come and go frequently. Would absolutely stay again.
Channon
Great location. A little out of the way - but the stay was great. Our room was smaller but very well maintained and outfitted. The reception staff member was an absolute delight and was very helpful. Great AC - would absolutely stay again!
Thomas
Room was clean, Air Conditioning was fabulous as it was oppressive in the street. Everyone made us feel welcome;from Nicola upon arrival to Valentina helping us secure a taxi at departure. Great staff.
P.s. liked the cornetto in the morning

Michael
Superb location and absolutely fabulous staff, friendly, informative and happy to help. Room was comfortable, if a little small (room 103). The lift to the property is very tiny, slightly claustrophobic, but does its job - listen for the pings before opening the door. Unfortunately some other guests noises, although once asleep, great sleep obtained from firm comfortable bed. Good shower, although greater poeer from the microphone head shower, rather than the rainforest head. TV, fridge, safe and coffee machine and kettle. Highly recommended.
Christi
We love this place!! the location was perfect. The room was just what we needed. I loved the amenities in the room. The little balcony was so quaint and perfect for our trip to Rome. The location was absolutely incredible. Close to everything! The gentleman at the front desk was so very helpful and informative.
It’s a perfect little boutique hotel not huge or fancy but quaint and authentic we totally recommend!
The fresh made pastries hanging on our door just took it over the top for us

Anita
The hotel was in a good location. We were able to walk to several things and there were lots of restaurants close by. The rooms were very nice.
The one thing I didn't know ahead of time was that we would need a code to get inside the hotel and then we didn't know where the reception area was because it was not right inside the door. I had been given instructions in case we needed to do a late check in so I did have the code to get in, I just didn't know I would need it in the morning when we got there. They had also given instructions on how to work the elevator to get to our rooms and told us where the keys would be. (The elevator is very small so if you have many bags, you will need to make a couple trips.) Since we got there in the morning, we did find the reception area on the 4th floor which was where one of our rooms was located. Just saying this to give others a heads up.
There customer service was very good. They responded quickly to any questions I had on WhatsApp.
This was my first trip to Europe so I will be prepared next time :)

The room was clean everyday. Staff were very nice and helpful. Breakfast was nice and additional coffee /drinks were available. It was hot and their AC was great. We would return.
RaeLyn
The staff here is incredible. Welcoming and informative! Air conditioning was prefect during this heat wave! Easy check in/out.
Maricela
We were very happy with our stay here. Property was centrally located to major sights. Room was beautiful and comfortable. Valentina was great! She was friendly and helpful. She arranged pick and drop off for airport. We arrived after front desk was closed but we were given easy and clear instruction on entering property and our room. The warm croissants in the morning were delicious. I would definitely stay here again and will be recommending to others.
Mary
The hotel was in a great spot and the staff took very good care of us between booking car services and taxis and providing much needed help in a pinch when we ran into issues with getting our safe open. I will absolutely recommend this place to everyone I know heading to Rome!! Thank you
Gregg
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay, and loved the view and close proximity to so many beautiful attractions.
Jane
Valentina was fantastic - at check in she helped with tour info, restaurant choices, and gave map details. She also arranged for transport to the airport. The location was perfect and walkable to so many of the major spots. The bed was extremely comfortable. The croissants provided in the morning were the best ever!! I would definitely stay there again.
Jeffrey
Our stay at the Minerva Relais Hotel in Rome was absolutely exceptional from beginning to end. The hospitality from Nicola and Valentina truly made this experience unforgettable. They were attentive, friendly, thoughtful, and always willing to go above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and cared for. Their warmth and professionalism made us feel welcomed the moment we arrived.
Each morning started perfectly with fresh hot croissants and espresso while enjoying the beautiful balcony views of Rome, it was the perfect Italian experience. The hotel itself made us feel completely pampered with luxurious robes and slippers, along with a fully stocked mini bar that added such a nice touch.
Our room, 402, was beautifully decorated and immaculately clean. The beds were tremendously comfortable, and the sitting table along with the lounging couch completed the relaxing atmosphere perfectly. Every detail felt carefully thought out.
The service here was truly over the top. One detail that especially stood out was that they even had distilled water prepared for my CPAP machine, such a considerate gesture that showed how much they genuinely care about their guests.
The location could not be better. It is perfectly situated within walking distance of all the major must-see attractions in Rome, making it incredibly convenient for sightseeing and exploring the city.
We could not have asked for a better stay, and the next time we visit Rome, we will absolutely be booking again

A small but fabulous place to stay. Valentina is awesome and the croissants every day on our door were wonderful. Everything worked as it should and they go out of their way to make you comfortable. Rooms were clean and they are very thoughtful as to what you might need.
Pamela Burke
The pictures that were up when we booked are different. The pictured showed a cute building in a square. The hotel is on a street leading to the square with a tiny green door that was difficult to identify. There is a tiny elevator way down the corridor that 1 could fit in with one suitcase but if someone forgot to close the manual doors you had TJ do the stairs. The room was lovely and comfortable. We only stayed 1 night on the way back through Rome. My major issue was that when booking I explained that wifi was extremely important that day. The wifi was down and the front desk is only there until 1pm (but give before noon on our checking day) I called and no one was able to fix the issue over the phone after 45 minutes of trying. I had to hot spot off my phone which was extremely expensive. They did offer the €6 city fee comped. I would not stay here again.
Dana
We really enjoyed our stay at this hotel! The location was incredibly central. Valentina was so accommodating- she even helped set up a surprise in the room for my birthday. the room was clean and spacious! We really couldn’t have asked for a better stay!
Gerri
The room was very nice, although smaller than expected based on the photos. Valentina was awesome, and very helpful. The room was very clean and I loved having hot croissants delivered to my door every morning. The elevator is a little terrifying, but that’s not abnormal for Italy. Let’s face it. The buildings are kind of old, so they’re add-ons. It worked just fine. I enjoyed the little balcony.
Jeanne
Excellent location. Super clean and remodeled. Would stay here again!
Deborah
Room was lovely and clean coffee machine and croissant was a lively touch. Would stay here again and recommend
Matthew
One day to explore before early flight out - was perfect- very clean & true to a boutique Roman adventure, loved it
Raymond
Nicola was very helpful. Croissant’s in morning at door were wonderful.
Kathryn
Staff was helpful and knowledgeable! Residence was in a nice area close to the Pantheon
Cam
Nice room And close to everything. Morning staff was excellent
Matthew
Minerva Relais is a hidden gem! Our room was beautiful and large, and the hotel's location is perfect, a short walk to the inner city's major sights. We had a wonderful stay!
Neal
Close to a lot of sites. Very accommodating and communicative
Michael
We are in Italy ever year. This location is perfect especially if you are bringing new guests with you for their first experience. Valentina and staff were amazing. They organized transfers for us which helped to make our travel safe and smooth. The little extras go a long way. Stay here and you will find out what they are!
Rodger
The staff was very helpful and friendly, a pleasure to deal with. The location is great, central to many spots in Rome. The room was nice, clean and comfortable. Would stay again!
Mercedes
The staff was absolutely fantastic. They were so accommodating, they gave great advice and restaurant recommendations. The AC in the rooms are actually great (coming from someone in the US). The location is excellent. Walking distance from pantheon, Spanish steps, trevi fountain, etc. The staff also left delicious croissants in front of our doors which was just so sweet to wake up to. They do have an elevator as well which we hadn’t realized until half way up the stairs. Be prepared for a workout if you’re taking the stairs! Overall great place.
Yanxia
super convenient, safe and very walkable to each scenic spots. Good for family travel with kids, if you don't want to take public transportation, choose the one in the old city.
Raejae
Just ok to go around
Carrie
What a great find! This is a lovely boutique hotel, right in the heart of town! Beautiful and quiet rooms, with all the amenities including a mini bar, nespresso machine and fresh croissants each morning! Great starting point to walk to any of the major attractions. Would definitely come back again!
Brendan
Great location for walking to major attractions & restaurants. We were received/hosted by Valentina who was super friendly/helpful, even staying past the reception hours to check us in. Would stay again.
Neil
A sensibly priced, qwerky hotel, a stone's throw from the Pantheon and Trevi, and an easy walk to Steps, Vatican and Colosseum. Set amid the busy lanes of restaurants, this is a food lovers paradise!
Dom
Very friendly staff and exellent location and place.
Kate
The office manager at this hotel was exceptional! Valentino? I can’t remember after travels-sorry!
She welcomed up with extreme friendliness and sincerity and was so helpful with directions, a map, dining and location suggestions, getting taxi’s for us, etc.
Not everyone we encountered were as pleasant and lovely as she was so I wanted to make sure to leave her a review.
Our room was perfect. Beautiful bed and nice air conditioning in the hot heat and great bathroom. Close to attractions and very central located.
I would highly recommended this hotel! Thanks!

Wonderful little boutique hotel and close to everything. We stayed in triple room, very large and good price. Nicola is awesome, very nice guy and extremely helpful! Staying again after cruise.

James
Unfortunately the wall between our unit and the adjacent one was so thin you could hear conversations and the people in the adjacent room left their phone on vibrate all night so every time a message came in it vibrated the wall right at the headboard of the wall in our room. Hence the rating for property condition. The last night there was way better after they left. Staff was awesome and the property location was great.
Charlene
Our stay was really nice. The hotel staff were very nice, welcoming and helpful. You are able to message them via whatsapp at anytime and they provided dining options and car service options. The issues that we had were that one of the bathrooms leaked. The other is my ceiling had a plastic bag on it which was strange. Other than that I would recommend staying here. Very short walk to the pantheon and all the other Rome attractions. It is right outside a Michelin star restaurant which was not expensive and food was good.
Alyson
This was a lovely stay! It was perfect for 2 nights – a quaint little place with plenty of charm - gives you a very Italian authentic feel. While you can hear some conversations through the walls given how close the rooms are, it's a cozy, intimate feel.
Ideal for a brief getaway with two people, this spot has everything you need for a comfortable and enjoyable stay. We’d happily return - great location and excellent staff.

Location was fantastic but honestly the pictures on expedia looked nothing like the place. I was so surprised to see my room. The room was dark, gloomy and ceilings looked like they would cave in, also you could hear every noise from anyone else entering the building via the door to foot steps. The staff were kind and airport transfer was well arranged. I wouldn't stay here again, however.

A Perfect Stay in the Heart of Rome – Highly Recom
We absolutely loved our stay at Hotel Minerva Relais in Rome! The location is unbeatable — right in the heart of the city center, just steps away from the Pantheon and within easy walking distance to so many iconic monuments and piazzas. You’re surrounded by charming local restaurants and some of the best gelato spots we found during our trip!
Our room was spacious, beautifully maintained, and came with a lovely balcony — the perfect spot to relax after a day of exploring. But what truly made our stay special was the staff. They were warm, welcoming, and incredibly helpful throughout our visit, making us feel right at home.
If you’re planning a trip to Rome and want to be in the middle of everything, Minerva Relais is the place to stay. We’ll definitely be back!

Great location and clean and comfortable room.
You have to manage with the very small elevator or walk up fairly steep flights of stairs.

The staff was so kind and the room so comfortable. I never could figure out how to turn the heat up(my daughter runs very cold) but the room was incredible. The lift only fits two people max and you need to be very fit to walk those stairs. I did it once, ha. It is very close to many sites and restaurants. They stored our luggage on the last day until we were ready to leave.

Service was amazing! Valentina was so helpful and knowledgeable. From booking tickets, to best places to go, she helped with everything. So personable, felt like she was a longtime friend. The room is spacious, the shower was delightful, and the balcony’s just topped it off. Will be returning!

I will stay this place again in future

Comfortable and close to everything.
Great location with very friendly staff. This accommodation is about 4-6 rooms, taking up an entire floor of a building. Not a traditional hotel. Front desk is only there until early afternoon. Very friendly, safe, stocked mini fridge with beer and wine. Large bathroom and good balcony. They drop off a croissant each morning, there is an espresso pod machine in the room, but no formal breakfast. We very much enjoyed our stay. I think I got a few spider/mosquito bites when I awoke. We left the window open at night for cool air and I saw some cobwebs in the top of the room between the traditional looking rafters.

I had a great time staying at this property. The staff was great at giving us a lay of the land and even marked up a map of all the top attractions. I enjoyed my time here and would stay again.

Location close to Pantheon.
Excellent helpful staff on reception.
Our room 202 was large but eccentric. Shower had flashing disco lights but water was constantly hot then cold.
Some wall plugs stopped working for a few hours then became active. This happened every day!
Overall the accommodation was fine for 4 nights!

Great room in a great area, can easily walk to a lot of the major tourist sites, like the pantheon or colosseum, as well as many restaurants and coffee shops. Not very sound proof though so if you’re a light sleeper you might want to bring ear plugs! Still highly recommend this place though

Most helpful staff. Valentina and Lorenzo.

A beautifully appointed property with exceptional hosts! Though we knew reception was only open until 1 pm and had clear directions on how to gain entry to the secure building on our own, the gentleman working that day waited for us when our train arrived late by one hour and gave us wonderful touring and restaurant recommendations. Inside the marble tiled room we had access to a free mini bar with a small bottle of prosecco, sodas, beer and water. Every morning to go with our espresso (Nespresso machine with capsules provided) fresh, buttery cornettos arrived at 8 am. Many trattoria, restaurant and shopping options close by. It is also right in the heart of many historic sites to see, easily walkable if no mobility issues, otherwise the old-world charm bricked streets may be difficult. There is a old style very small lift (if more than two bags you may want to go up separately) otherwise a walk up four flights. We usually walked down, and rode up (tired after long touring walks, lol!). We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and our hosts, and highly recommend the Minerva Relais.

Small little inn type place. Staffing limited from 7:30 am to 1 pm so if any issues you have to call someone. Staff on site very responsive when there. Fresh croissants every morning a plus and a free stocked refrigerator with drinks a nice plus. Had some minor issues with circuit blowing bug quick to correct
Very good location just a few steps from Parthenon.

It was mis represented. It was a guest house.
Poor area. Poor condition.poor quality of conditions.
We left a day after,we were on the phone with Expedia agent for an hour nobody helped us. They took our money and we are going to dispute the charges with our credit card company. You guys have to pay me at least $900 back.

Very nice hotel. Highly recommend it. Location is amazing.
Just be prepared if you have large luggage. The small elevator is interesting but it's manageable. The staff was very willing to assist.

We had a fantastic stay at the Minerva Relais this week. Excellent communication from them throughout. We arrived after the reception had shut but very detailed and perfect instructions sent prior to arrival which made check in seamless. Very friendly staff who gave us all the inside knowledge on the best places to visit outside of the main attractions. The fresh croissants each morning were a welcome bonus.
Rooms were clean and perfect for our needs. Would definitely stay again.

Best staff we ever encountered!
We arrived at the Minerva at around 12:30. We came from the train station in a taxi for about 15 Euros. We got to the door of the Minerva and one of the employees was walking in the door the same time as us, and provided helpful information for us as we went to check in. We got there during check in time, but the coded front door and the coded door on the fourth floor would have made check in easy even if we came after check in hours. When we got upstairs, the woman at the check in desk could not have been more helpful. She was very kind, and gave us great information and a map to help us move around Rome. She told us how our luggage could be held even after check out, and let us know that they would leave croissants for breakfast. They also provided bottled water for free in the room. The room was a very good size, and the bed was comfortable. If you are looking for any negative, it is that the water pressure in the shower was not very strong. That is the only negative I can give you. It is in a great location! I truly recommend staying here. We will definitely stay there again!
susana
The room was great - like a typical hotel room. The property is an apartment building where they operate out of two floors so there are no common areas. I had trouble with the electronics in the room, but I was fine without them. The location is amazing.
Mariam
It’s a local walk to all the major monuments. Rooms are clean and very cool during the summer heat. They even left croissants on our door every morning. Would definitely stay here again.
Maria
This property is centrally located near the Pantheon and excellent restaurants and gelatorias! The staff is super helpful and responsive via email. There is a Michelin Star restaurant across the street and a nice bar next door.
Kristena
This hotel looked amazing. Staff was great and we were greeted by fresh croissants every morning. Perfect!
Alice
Amazing guest house! Our room was beautiful it had a window looking out onto a garden and a walkout terrace on the other side. Insuite coffee machine and croissant for breakfast was a nice touch. Walking distance to most places in old Rome. Hotel had easy checkin and room was available upon our arrival. It was very easy to take the bus from the train station. Bus stop is right around the corner that is a connecting point for most bus routes. They organized a driver to the airport for our departure who came on time. Trip was fabulous!! If I were in Rome again I’d definitely choose this place to stay. There was a leaking issue with the air conditioner, it was very very hot out so no fault of the hotel. They offered us another room to sleep in but we opened the windows and that was sufficient. It was great that they acknowledged our concern and gave us an alternative. I can’t say enough good things about this stay.
Deborah
This hotel is on the top floors of an old/classic building. Rooms were remodeled with a touch of the old still showing through in a good way. Bedding was comfortable. We were left a small snack and fresh croissants in the morning. Air conditioning was perfect. The elevator/lift is old and only went to the floor under us. This hotel was within walking distance of the Trevi fountain, the Pantheon, the Spanish steps, Piazza Navona and many other sites in Rome. The hotel was able to arrange transportation for us from the airport to the hotel for a reasonable price. The driver was on time and friendly. However, he did not have change for the cash we brought so he got a big tip. I would highly recommend this hotel for your stay in Rome.

A series of suites on the 4th floor of a building near the Pantheon. My suite was clean, comfortable, and spacious, and staff were very friendly and welcoming. The building also has a small elevator.
Dina
Everything was good
Maryam
It is close to everything. It is clean and the staff are very nice and helpful. I stayed in 3 different hotels in 3 different cities in Italy but none of them were as good as this hotel as far as communication. I was surprised when I emailed them the first time with a question and they responded right away ( a person answered my email and not an automatic reply). The best thing about this hotel is the location and the staff.

Long overdue on my review but hopefully this will help sway someone's choice. We absolutely loved it here . Felt like home! Very clean, housekeeping was so sweet and management was so friendly and helpful the buffet breakfast was absolutely delicious. Everything was in walking distance and it was located very close to the police station so we felt even safer. Definitely should stay here if it's your first time in Rome!

We could not have enjoyed our stay more! Valentina was amazing! From greeting us at check in and our room being ready early after a very long day of travel to realizing all the small details of the Minerva Relais. The room was lovely, the bathroom was huge. Security was outstanding. The location was fantastic! The minibar was so appreciated. And warm croissants in the morning? Come on! Could we be more spoiled?
We will certainly return and wish our stay would have been longer! Thank you for an amazing stay!
