Reviews for Hotel Minerva
Review 1:Location, nothing around. Do not use this hotel if you do not have a car or rented car. Staff does not seem to happy or willing to help us.
Review 2:Swimming pool and garden
Review 3:The breakfast was basically yogurt, pastries, juice and coffee. After a few days of that you were pretty sick of all the sugar.
Review 4:We had a very troublesome trip, lots of issues with our rental car. The staff was so helpful and absolutely amazing! Pool area was very nice, free pool table was a huge pluss!
Review 5:Asked for double - got twin beds pushed together. Given a disabled room - with high toilet, seat in shower etc - not appropriate at all. Everything sweet for breakfast. Very isolated. Had to take. Us I to town but immigrant camp opposite so this would not be an option for some people who may feel intimidated.
Review 6:Pool area.
Review 7:Restaurant closed on the night of our stay. Receptionist said restaurant was full ! it was actually closed. why lie ?
Review 8:Ideal location for early flight from Brindisi Airport
Review 9:Pool had been drained and this was not mentioned. Hotel was opposite military airport so was easy to find. As we only stayed one night before flying home it served its purpose.
Review 10:Bed was comfortable. Food was acceptable service was good.
Review 11:It feels a little bit like having a room in a big building. It's not cosi, just practical.
Review 12:The restaurant is simple but nice and the staff very kind. It's close to the airport and that's the main advantage this hotel has.
Review 13:Didn't seem to be any public transport options locally? The hotel used a preferred taxi driver whose tone might offend some.
Review 14:Nice site, sensible distance from airport, traffic free area.
Review 15:Safe car park on site next to pool and appartments, highly recommended for car travellers only, best for families as closed area. Way outside Brindisi. Opposite to military site. Quiet. A bit run-down, no frills but that's what you get for the low price you're asked to pay. Breakfast typical Italian but good.
Review 16:Not the hotels fault but need a car to get there or else buses which is a hastle especially if you don't know. If you have car then perfect hotel
Review 17:Beautiful pool
Review 18:Rooms very noisy Oldfashioned
Review 19:Comfortable and economic for me - good to have a nice pool.
Review 20:very nice staff and hotel
Review 21:Only for family during summer! bed in the unic room (kitchen and noise of the fridge). My arrival at 10pm and the guy at the lobby was not able to give a street to get a valid GPS address. More than one hour with my cell phone to arrive. Even Italian guy that I met was not able to understand the indication from this hotel... My worst experience!!
Review 22:Nothing
Review 23:Bugs, flys, Mosquito`s, in late November!! Killed 2 fly`s, and aMosquito in my room! No Fly Swatter, available! Fly`s worse in Summer,stayed here in August 2012. Property is dated, needs a coat of paint,and new furniture. Heat controls in room, not working! Room,very,very, hot, even for November! Posting of room numbers alonginside facility road, non-existant! You need an eagle eye to see themfrom your vehicle..
Review 24:Location to Brindisi airport, outstanding! Location is the only asset ofthis property, it`s ok.....
Review 25:the hotel is not worth the money at this time (november). nobody in but higher prices as in town centre. from station to hotel 20€ for taxi single tour. thats too much. all in costs per night ca. 90 € for a clean place without nothing else. even no restaurant open.
Review 26:people were friendly
Review 27:On the outside all looks ok, but the interior is old and broken. Theplace is difficult to find since it is on a main road without housenumbers and street name. Gps coordinates are needed.
Review 28:The staff is very kind and it is near to the airport.
Review 29:Our GPS could not locate address of the hotel, we got lost on the way. Having a car is a must to go anywhere. Brindisi center is about 10 min drive
Review 30:Good facilities, clean, child bed was added no problem. As we were leaving early, cold breakfast was organized for us Car parking is sufficient on site Hotel is very quiet and relaxing
Review 31:Twice in 1 week the restaurant was closed. The first being a Sunday and nothing was available anywhere nearby, which was a big problem for those with no transport.
Review 32:Nice peaceful surroundings. Clean and tidy
Review 33:The hotel was close to the airport where we had a flight arriving late. Very convenient and fitted our bill neatly. We knew that the restaurant would be closed by the time we arrived, but there is a wonderful pizza restaurant very close by, which we used.
Review 34:Staff disconnected the Internet switch all the time. No hot water when we arrived. Had to shower in cold water in winter. Breakfast was a disaster. Struggled with luggage. Staff will not lift a finger to assist. No elevator. Walls were made of paper. Dont go there in winter time.
Review 35:Heating was good
Review 36:Hotel Minerva was just 10 minutes away by taxi from the Brinidisi Airport. It was clean and quiet and the staff were helpful. It was not fancy , but the price on booking. com was great.
Review 37:Ideal for short drive to the airport Large room, comfortable bed. quiet air con. Evening meal was very good, breakfast good. We only stayed overnight after 2 weeks touring. .
Review 38:Accoding to the pictures and advertisments of the hotel, it should havea lap pool too. But unfortunately this one got closed some time ago.Maybe it would be good to remove those pictures of the lap pool fromtheir web page.
Review 39:The hotel is located a few kilometers outside Brindisi in westerndirection. It can be reached easily but you shall hire a car to be fullymobile and flexible. The hotel offers car park areas, spacy rooms and anice family swimming pool. The breakfast is of Italian style, variousand plenty and the hotel staff is able to communicate in Englishlanguage. My stay there was quit relaxing in a very quiet atmosphere.
Review 40:It's quite close to Brindisi airport and has got a lot of sport facilities fo free. One can use tennis court, mini-futbol court and large swimming pool.
Review 41:The hotel offers a discount for a taxi to the airport, but I think it is rip off to ask 30 Euro for 5 km (10 min. drive). They told me it is 5 euro extra for a taxi before 5.30 am, but the hotel never mentioned it !
Review 42:24 hours reception
Review 43:Lacking cushion on pool transat and towls in rooms!
Review 44:Very attentive staff . No cushions on sun beds made sunbathing a bit uncomfortable.
Review 45:Very big and comfortable room
Review 46:everything, lovely room.
