There are many hotels in this amazing location in Italy. Most are 4 star hotels. The Minerva is a 3 star hotel located about 150 meters from the Marina in a small street. Nice, clean, small but great garden and very smiling people. The breakfast is included and good.

The hotel is up a side road and in a quiet location. The room, although quite small, was adequate for our needs and was clean and well equipped. The bathroom was clean and had everything I needed. Breakfast was good, and there was quite a good choice. The patio area was really pretty and lovely to eat breakfast outside. The... More

A little tricky to find as it is at the end of a side lane off the street but a good location close to the centre. Checkin was fine and staff very friendly and helpful especially the young man at breakfast who spoke very good English. You have to give your car keys to reception who park and retrieve your... More

Great breakfast everyday!!! We stayed for 3 days in a lovely room that was very clean and tidy with everything you need. Staff were very helpful. Location was average but the hotel price reflects this. Close to good restaurants. Would recommend staying here. Would recommend taxi rather than walking to train station.

This is my first review posted on tripadvisor - we usally book (and therefore review) through a booking website. We booked for three nights direct on the hotel's website www.hotelminerva.eu - a room with balcony was only 10 euros more than a basic room, but a basic room would still give access to the roof terrace (excellent views but limited...

Sure, the rooms are a little cramped and covered in canary-yellow, but the cons end there. The beds are comfy, the ac is cold, the breakfast is tasty, the internet works (free!) and the staff are friendly and wonderful.

We drove into Santa Margherita during a downpour with no reservations. I saw the sign for the hotel and quickly ran up the street to ask if a room was available. I was greeted by the owner, who immediately arranged for me to look at several available rooms. I picked the biggest one I was shown (I believe it was... More

It is the third time that we stay at the Minerva, so it is about time to write something about this excellent hotel. It is located outside the crowded city center on the slopes of a hill nearby the spectacular Monte di Portofino. The surroundings are quite and the view from the roof terrace lovely. This time, we rented a... More
