Hotel Minerva was not my first choice, but for the one night before flying home there was not much choice. Minerva is not in the older part of the city, and the room we had was on the street and quite noisy. The room was clean enough, but definitely needed an overhaul - the showerroom in particular - strange plastic concertina style doors were not brilliant. Of all the places we stayed this was the most disappointing, and expensive, but mainly Pisa was the dirtiest and most unpleasant city to walk around in especially at night, and the only place we felt a little unsafe

My wife and I were very satisfied customers of this hotel! it is situated just 5minutes by taxi to the airport. The radio taxi service is very efficient and prompt. The hotel is situated in a very quiet area and the staff were superb! The hotel is within reach of the Piazza Dei Meracoli (Leaning Tower of Pisa) and it took us 45 minutes by walk! We walking in this small city as it was quiet and serene! The views across the river are fanatastic! Above all it was a successful and quiet holiday break for us!

We have stayed only for one night (fortunately)- the noises during the night were horrible. The room was clean but to small as for four person.

We have visited Pisa,as tourists. No contact with other tourists. We were passing only on day in Pisa.

Pleasant small hotel in a nice area of Pisa away from the manic tourist throng. One disadvantage is no lift, so if you arrive from the airport with 4 heavy suitcases and have a room on the second floor, as we did.......... Two great restaurants close by are Buca and Galileo (superb for dinner). Typical Italian and full of locals. Ask at reception for directions, only a 10 minute walk from hotel. I would stay there again no problem, but remember it is a budget hotel so don't expect too much.

this hotel was rather old and dated. One of the hotel staff was a bit cranky and gave us a hard time about the minibar, insisting we used things we did not, although that was resolved after extended discussion. There is not much to see in Pisa other than the tower and cathedral. Hotel was not easy to find. Breakfast was ok.

Owner does not speak good English but he has an employee who in can be understood. Beautiful room, we felt very much like a local seeing as it was away from the madness of the city. Not hard to find using the Metro system. For breakfast we were given vouchers to a local cafe. Very nice place.

This hotel was average. The good points were that the location was convenient for the train station and not too far from the leaning tower. It was clean and well kept. However, it was very expensive for the quality of the room. €85 per night was charged when similar standard hotels generally charge about €60 around Italy. Beware of the paper thin walls as we (and the rest of the floor) were treated to a very loud show from the people across the hall.

We arrived close to midnight due to a late flight. The gentleman who greeted us was terrific! The room was nice and clean. The location was convenient. The lady at the front desk pointed out attractions on the map we would have by-passed. Smoking was allowed in the general areas despite the new law in Italy, which wasn't nice because it makes me sick. I would recommend this hotel again to anyone.
