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

I absolutely loved my stay at the hotel Minerva. The hotel is couple of of minutes away from the main attraction but don't let this discourage you. It is about five minutes away from the main street and the hotel has a roof top with an amazing view of St. Margherita (and sunbathing). I booked a room with a view,... More

Beautiful small hotel, tucked away in a fabulous location - short walk up a small hill from the water and shops. Very welcoming and friendly staff who make you feel at home. Internet available and wonderful buffet breakfast in a gorgeous garden setting. Room was small, but lovely, fresh decor. Would definately stay again at Hotel Minerva in beautiful Santa... More

The hotel is not located with any ocean view, but then again it was nice and quiet. We enjoyed the garden where we had breakfast, which was very good! Nice and modern rooms with a comfortable bed and a nice bathroom. Helpfull staff and good service:) Short walk down town with good shopping and dining, and a fine walk to... More

We returned the second time to Hotel Minerva, mainly because of the functional rooms with very good value for the price. The standard rooms with balcony are simply furbished, carpet floor, a small bathroom/shower and minibar. The superior rooms are larger (balcony as well!) and come with wooded floors, overall worth the higher price, if you value it. Service is... More

We have stayed here three times. It is a real find. A really good location and a very friendly welcome. We stayed in a superior room this time and thought it was worth the supplement.

We have just returned from a week in Santa Margherita and really enjoyed our stay at the Hotel Minerva. In a quiet location, with friendly staff with a lovely garden for breakfast we could not find fault with it. However if you want a pool and lots of facilities then it's not for you but if you want a base... More
