Hotel Minerva E Nettuno

Great location.

The location was very good. We shared a bathroom and it did not have AC. They did give us a fan to use on our second night stay. It was close to the train station.

Brilliant hotel in a great location and run by lovely people

This is an old property that is being maintained perhaps not to everyone's standards but to the price you are paying. I would rate it higher if it was newer.

Muy bien ubicado si llegas en tren.

This hotel is cheap and in a convenient area next to the train station/ shopping area, BUT has tons of negatives. The showers had no hot water on top of the fact it kept constantly leaking onto the floor creating puddles resulting in us to have to keep using our towels to clean it up and house keeping was rather rude about giving extra dry towels due this inconvenience. Good luck getting extra pillows that aren't smashed, old, and have no pillow cases on them. The rooms are falling apart and dirty. The place also reeks of a horrible cigarette smell and the woman who works the front desk is incredible rude and a complete “scammer”. Firstly she tried to charge us the cost of 4 nights when we stayed for 2 nights and acted like we were the ones who couldn’t do basic math. She refused to let us pay with card (even though when I booked our reservation it said credit and debit accepted) and THEY HAVE a card reader on their front desk. She insisted we get euros from the atm , yet the atm connected to the building charged us $60 to take a small amount of money out. Not to mention she has a hot temper and berated me saying “ I have no idea how to travel” and that “ I have no idea how to book things etc”yet when my boyfriend walked back into the building she was trying to be emphatic of the situation. Do yourself a favor and stay clear of this place.

Hard to decide on this one. The hotel is not the best, but the price for the location is outstanding. We had what was meant to be a triple room of 3 beds but were given a room with a double bed and single folding bed. Cons The room had no proper windows so was very dark. The general condition was poor. AC unit but did not work. Single bed very uncomfortable and had plastic sheeting and pillow covers. Had to take them off as impossible to sleep on. Mosquitos were awful. Make sure you take repellent. Pros Cost £75 a night for a triple room. Location outstanding - couldn’t be better. The coupe that run it were really nice and welcoming. Bathroom was big and lovely shower. If you just want someone to leave bags and sleep, it’s ideal. A lot of poor hotels on the island are double the price. Come prepared to deal with the mosquitos as it can ruin your sleep if not. Can’t stress that enough. Overall it’s ok. I didn’t visit Venice to be in the hotel often so put up with the downsides.

The location is ideal, very short walk from train station. Surrounded by cafes, restaurants and endless shopping. Very friendly staff, spoke english, very helpful. Drawbacks, room was very small with only an armoir, very dated decor and a musty smell. We would stay there again.

nice area and clean

For what we paid it was great. Would only recommend if staying one or two nights… the smell of cigarettes from the first floor can be smelt in all the hallways which is annoying but overall very nice stay for cheap!

Great location!! On main strip, walkable to everything. Food options right outside of the door. Very clean and comfortable rooms. Loved that it was so close to the station and didnt have to carry out luggage throughout Venice.

This place was nice for the price.

For an inexpensive hotel room in Venice close to the station and for a solo traveler it was fine. If you are looking for a more luxury style of accommodation the budget single room option is not for you. I loved it. It’s quirky and the reception staff were great and hopefully appreciated my appalling attempt to speak Italian to them. If your room faces the street you’ll need to allow for the late night noise of people walking to and from the railway station as the hotel is on the main thoroughfare into Venice.

Excellent alternative

Support your local Venetians who have been their whole life. Tourism is hard for the locals who are outnumbered. A town of 30,000 who receives 30M a year. We had a wonderful stay in the 3rd floor away from the noise but close to the action. This is a quick walk to the train station, grand canal, and to the San Marcos square but also local places to wander. They keep it clean, the cleaning lady is friendly and we saw her clean daily. Our room was spacious and had simple, classic furniture which I felt was very authentic and homey.

The best location!!!!!!!! Everyone in the lobby was nice and helpful. Just an fyi that the room is small and there is no elevator. Would definitely stay again.

I just stayed 3 nights in the hotel. Firstly the location is amazing. You can not get better as only a few min walk from the station. As soon as you exit the hotel there are dozens of restaurants and cafes. The room is old yes but it’s clean. They will clean the room every day. I had hot water, super fast wifi and zero bed bugs. In fact the hotel also gives you mosquito repellent set up in room. Yes you leave your key at reception when you leave. This is standard in Italy. I had the best experience from the hosts. They were very friendly. This is a budget hotel but I would most stay here again.

The facilities were terrible. There was no air condition working. I requested for a fan, and the staff was so rude in giving response. It was really horrible experience with full sweating. Unfortunately my family had worst experience because of facilities.

I have stayed here a couple of times, because its right next to the train station and the area is great. It is far from the Piazza, but I like the walk. The room is very, you get what you see. For the price, is good. The beds aren't exactly amazing for your back. But that would be my only negative comment. The staff is extremely nice and welcoming.

No lift. Hotel was ok but need some to be done. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Not bad with the price. it was close to station
