The Grand Hotel della Minerva offers five-star luxury just behind the Pantheon in Rome, Italy

The Grand Hotel della Minerva (or Grand Hotel de la Minerve; the French and Italian spellings seem to be used interchangeably at this venerable hotel) has a killer location right on Piazza della Minerva, just off the southeast of the Pantheon.

This five-star porperty overlooks the tiny square where Bernini's playful sculpture of a baby elephant balancing an obelisk on its back sits in front of the deceptively nondescript facade of Santa Maria sopra Minerva (a highly underrated Roman church, with works by Michelangelo and Filippo Lippi inside).

And hey: we haven't even peeking inside the hotel yet, where the large rooms are fitted out with elegant modern furnishings, sometimes under ancient wood-bead ceilings.

If you've got the scratch, The Minerva is a most excellent choice, enjoying one of the best, most central locations in all of the historic center. If it's just too pricey for you, never fear: the wonderful budget Hotel Mimosa is just down the block.
