This is a wonderful hotel just inside the city walls and a ten minutes walk from the major sites. It is quiet, modern, and very clean.

Darragh, Ireland

everything about the hotel was very good, the staff were all very helpful and efficient and I would thoroughly recommend this hotel to anybody wishing to visit Siena

Neil, Ireland

Excellent property located just inside the city wall. Close enough to the sites without being subjected to the crowds. The outstanding staff was always friendly and ready to help with any need or question. The rooftop patio bar, which also serves dinner, has outstanding views of the Tuscan countryside. The generous breakfast buffet offers excellent choices and is top quality.

Larry, United States of America

Great location. Helpful staff. Amazing restaurant with great food and view

Lori, United States of America

Perfect location immediatly before the cameras of The ZTL. You can park in the hotel and enjoy a car free center. The hotel is walking distance for all the main attractions and restaurants. Clean rooms and friendly staff.

Livia, Switzerland

The restaurant was lovely, albeit a bit over the top for what we wanted, the wine was sampled by the waiter before we had it for example but breakfast was great and the actually food really nice.

Rebekah, United Kingdom

Parking available. Luxury hotel. Good bar. Great breakfast.

Gregory, Australia

눉Nothing to dislike but if I had to find something: Shower was tiny. Parking could be a little tight if you have to use the garage but valet parking is offered
눇Wonderful welcoming hotel. Great staff, excellent location on the fringes of Siena. Lovely room, good aircon and the bonus of complementary water in the minibar. Free parking too

눉The hotel is old fashioned. The mattress on the bed was not flat and must be replaced. The restaurant service was slow and the food mediocre. Eat someplace else.
눇The hotel is clean, bathroom is big, and the staff is nice and helpful. The hotel is inside the walls of Sienna, but you have to walk 10 minutes uphill to the center of the city. There is a parking at the hotel , and free WiFi.

눉The only two things. We thought we got breakfast with the booking we did through Booking.com BV, but the hotel told us we had to pay 9 Euros per person per day. The trees where the car was parked dripped resin all over the car, but the hotel sent someone to wash it when I asked.
눇Very good location in old Siena. Very clean and comfortable. Great staff.

눉Extra bed in our room did not have a mattresss. It was a lounge chair converted into a single bed. No padding at all. The floor would have been more comfortable. Our daughter had to share our bed. When I complained they folded a doonah in half and but it under the sheet. Top price for an average experience for our child. Our only complaint.

눉Only one of the outlets in the room worked properly and a light had to be on for it to function. This made charging my phone and camera battery next to impossible. I contacted the front desk to let them know, but they never sent anyone though they said they would.
눇I received a free upgrade upon arrival! The room was spacious with a beautiful view of the countryside. The staff was friendly and welcoming. I ate dinner at the roof top bar, which was a little pricey but worth the view.
