Loved the Minerve Hotel
by A TripAdvisor Member
We spent 6 nights in Paris and had a fabulous time due to this hotel and the sights of Paris. The room we had (507) was large by French standards, clean, and had a great ,modern, large bathroom. Our view was the street below which was delightful and we had a small balcony. The doors to the balcony kept out the noise so we could enjoy the scene. The location is ideal to walk to the buses, metro, the Seine, restaurants and all the sightseeing you want to do. The staff was great--friendly, fluent in English, helpful and informative and very concerned with making us happy. The breakfast was more than adequate. We will certainly stay here again and highly recommend it.
Fantastic location, really nice Hotel
by A TripAdvisor Member
We stayed in Hotel Minerve in November for 3 days. We really liked the room. The room was a little small (by US standards) but cozy. The bathroom was a surprise...it was spacious and very clean. The staff was very friendly. The location of this Hotel is its best part. We had our 2.5 yr old son in tow and felt that the distance to the Subway (our preferred transportation mode) was reasonable. Seine river and Batobus Stop (for boat sightseeing of Paris) were also walkable. Breakfast was adequate but expensive. Right across the road was a very nice Cafe and a couple of Bistros to fill yourself up. However, we preferred a small 'stall' that was selling hot and great tasting Panini's as our 'breakfast-cum-lunch' (after having Cafe coffee!). This place (forgot the name) sells only for 'To-go' and is reasonable. Bast part is that it filled us so much that we could last till late afternoon without another big meal (important for us as we had to cover a lot of places in short time).
Great Hotel, Great Location

My husband and I stayed at the Minerve Hotel for a week this past November. We found the hotel to be very charming, and the staff was extremely helpful. We had a great room on the 5th floor with a small balcony and a wonderful view. (If you are American, you have to realize the rooms are not the same as in the US. You need to request a larger room if that is one of your requirements.) We kept the door open most nights and did not find it any noisier than at home. The location was the best as we were able to walk to any place we wanted to go. The continental breakfast was certainly more than enough food to get us started every morning. We would most definitely stay there again. Again, the location was great!
Friendly staff, great location!

My boyfriend and I just stayed at the Minerve Hotel this December. We found the hotel to be very charming with its old style. The room was pretty small, but I expected that after reading the other reviews. The size of the room does not matter when you are in the heart of Paris and will spend most of the time sight seeing. The staff was very friendly from our check in to our check out. This hotel is in the middle of everything with Notre Dame being just a close walk away. Great little hotel!
More Bed Bugs
by TripAdvisor Member Lake Forest
We stayed in this hotel for 5 days in October, we feel itchy but did not discover those bed bugs until the 4th day, a dozen of them, under the pillow and the bed spread. We reported to a young lady at the reception and requested to move to another room, our request was denied at first, without any apology. We had to wait half a day to move to another room. On the day we left, this person had the gut to summon us to vacate the room right away, at noon, while I am trying to park my car to bring down the luggage.

I had the same question like you. If you have not selected your accomodation then why not check out the Minerve hotel in the center of paris. I will be staying at that hotel with my school folks and I heard that the place is clean, good customer service, perfect access to the places in paris, and most of all cheat. If you are not looking for expensive hotel then consider the Minerve.
