Grand Hotel de la Minerve

We stayed here during peak summer season and were truly blown away. The attention to detail is incredible - from the lobby, to the hotel bar, to the rooms themselves - and the service is impeccable. I’m pretty picky when it comes to beds and honestly this was one of the most comfortable ones I’ve slept on. Rome was our last stop on a 2 week trip and usually by this time I’m about ready to get back to home, but staying at Orient Express La Minerva made it really hard to leave! The location is also fantastic - walking distance to most of the sights or a short taxi ride. Love love love this place and am crossing my fingers I can return next summer.

Recently open , this beautiful & luxury hotel in the center of Rome , close to colosseum . We went to the roof top restaurant, great view & great food/ ambiance .

We visited this hotel prior to Orient Express acquiring the property (2022) and it was wonderful. We patiently waited years for it to re-open while the new ownership did a total makeover. After the long wait, we were able experience the new La Minerva and all we can say is; ottimo lavoro (great job)! I didn’t think it could get better and that was a huge mistake. Orient Express has taken this hotel to a whole new level. From the moment you arrive you’re treated like returning family. The staff is friendly, attentive, and genuinely happy to be there. The main lobby and bar area is a relaxing oasis where you can enjoy a meal or drink after a long day of exploring Rome. The rooms are spacious and well appointed. Every detail has been thought of to ensure a comfortable stay. The rooftop bar and restaurant is a perfect mix of relaxed sophistication. Once you settle into your seat, the views, drinks, and food will make you want to linger late into the night. All of this is curated by an amazing staff that is there to meet your every need. We had the pleasure of sitting with the General Manager, Phillip. His pride and enthusiasm was evident as we talked about the hotel, the renovations and future additions. The La Minerva is the first hotel opened by Orient Express, if it’s any indication of their dedication to perfection, we eagerly look forward to visiting their future hotels. We’ve had the privilege of traveling all over the world, without question this is our new favorite place to stay and will be the bell-weather by which all others are judged.

We are finishing a family trip. This hotel was beyond incredible. In addition to the stunning hotel- the service was remarkable. They think of anything you can possibly need before you do. Special thanks to the concierge Gianfranco who planned great day trips for us. Really from start to finish- this was an A plus!

we recently stayed at the newly opened Orient Express Minerva, cant say enough about the hotel, lobby bar and roof top bar. Incredibly attentive staff, hotel is beautiful and rooms have all amenities. Likely the best hotel I have stayed in, and i have stayed in a number. Rooftop dining needs improvement, but its new, so being worked on, rooftop bar staff were excellent
