An amazing hotel located in the centre of Florence overlooking a beautiful Piazza surrounded by restaurants excellent shopping and to die for sightseeing attractions.
For some reason I got an upgrade to a suite which was sensational a lovely complimentary bottle of red wine together with a packet of biscotti.
The rooftop pool and bar were sensational with sensational views as well.
Not a cheap hotel by any means but well worth the money

The staff were extremely pleasant and helpful throughout. The hotel is centrally located, so ideal for lots of walking to the main sights in Firenze and within a 10 minute walk from the train station.
Unfortunately, the room we had didn't have any view apart from some rooftops. However, we were out most of the time enjoying the food, drinks, and sights of the cobbled streets of the town.

The reception is very good service mind and very helpful. The room is clean and much bigger than the normal room in Florence.
Will definitely come back again.

Grand Hotel Minerva is closed to the Florence train station. The hotel is classy and the staff are very professional. Rooms are clean & nice view of the town center. Bedding are comfortable and breakfast spread is great. Enjoyed my 1 night stay in this hotel.
