2 day stay very convenient to historical downtown many cafes & restaurants within walking distance parking is difficult

The hotel featured a very good breakfast spread. It is a bit of a hike from the train station if you are carrying bags, but there is a bus stop near by. The hotel is just inside the city wall but not especially close to the train staion or the city center. Il Campo and Duomo are a ~15min walk through the narrow streets of the city. Nice quiet room that was clean. There was a computer in the lobby with internet access.

A nice hotel, but less than helpful staff.

Its not a bad hotel for the price - short walk into centre. However the hotel has very thin walls so don't expect to get too much sleep

We found the accommodation a little difficult to find once in Siena despite following the centre of town signs. However handy location to main sights - easy walking distance. Rooms OK but a little noisy.

After a number of hotel stays over 5 weeks in Italy I would rate the Minerva in Siena among the best. The twin room was a good size and comfortable; also the bathroom was comparatively spacious and the breakfast was generous. The staff were helpful and courteous.

An excellent hotel with easy (although being Siena, steep) access to the city - a bus is also available nearby to reach the centre. If arriving by train be warned - it's a long and weary journey up from the station, so try to get a taxi! As over 50's we found the hotel very accommodating, even if the concierge had a little trouble with english. Good spacious room and a clean, functioning bathroom with a little balcony overlooking vege gardens and the city skyline in the distance - charming.

Very pleasant neutral spacious bedroom and nice bathroom. Pretty handy for the town centre, about ten minutes walk. It is difficult to park near the hotel. Good breakfast (pastries, fruit etc) though tended to run out of things.

We had a nice stay. The superior room offered a great view of the old city. Good breakfast and modern bathrooms. Distance from train station should read as 1500 m (~20 min walk or short cab ride from station). Location convenient to major tourist sites.

We chose the Minerva Hotel Siena because it is walkable from the "Campo" and it has a car park (+10 Euro). Our room was basic but had views of the city and the air con worked. Free internet in the lobby was a bonus.

The view to the city is possible only from one side of the Hotel, and this should be highlighted in the WEB-site (in this sense the photos could be misleading). Otherwise, everything is perfect!

It is very far form the actual town centre, although they say it is in the gùhistorical city centre, I dont think so. A person of the staff at the reception desk was not very helpul and rude.

I had an exceptional stay at the Minerva. It is very conviently located within walking distance to the train, bus, and the piazza del Campo. Our room #7 was a triple but could have slept four. There was a king size bed and two chairs that folded out into beds. They were very comfortable. The view of the city from our room was amazing! The staff was very helpful. They helped us with car rental and we had to call to see if they would look up a location on the internet and give us directions. I left some items behind and they were very helpful with retreiving them helping me get them back. Breakfast was more than adequate. Free internet in the lobby was helpful.

posizione centrale, ottimo rapporto qualità prezzo.

Convenient to the train station, Hertz rental car, and an easy walk to the town center, so we were quite pleased with the location. Hotel is clean and well maintained. The website advertises free parking, but good luck getting one of the spaces...they stay full. The good news is that parking is available next door in a garage for 10 euro/night. Overall we were very pleased.

It's one of the cheaper hotels in Siena, but the price didn't really match the quality of the room. We stayed for much cheaper in Perugia, for example, or Rome.

Localisation parfaite pour visiter le centre ville. Salle de bain assez et petit déjeuner "pauvres".

This was a great location and the staff refered us to an excellant restaurant for dinner. The only problem was breakfast. Just a typical Italian Hotel breakfast but we had to ask them twice to replenish as when we arrived there was no fruit or buns etc out. Other then that it is a short 15 min. walk to the Campo and beautiful Sienna. But I must say the views from the hotel windows were amazing!

Excellent solution to visit the town of Siena Lift a little bit noisy ( for room near the lift), but acceptable
