“Good option in Siena, especially if you arrive by car”

The hotel is just outside the Porta Romana of Siena, and we choose it because it was more convenient, since we arrived by car, and it is not allowed to park inside the gates of the historic part of the city.

The hotel is just outside the Porta Romana of Siena, and we choose it because it was more convenient, since we arrived by car, and it is not allowed to park inside the gates of the historic part of the city. Overall, the hotel was very good. You could see that the rooms were recently renovated and everything was new. We just didn’t like the fact that, in our room, the beds were in a kind of second floor, and the bathroom was under it, so we had to go up and down the stairs all the time. Also, during the breakfast, the staff serves your food, and I believe it would be easier if they just let the guests take their own food, because, at times, it formed a big line waiting to be served.

“Quaint Hotel”

The quaint charm of this petite hotel is accentuated by its lovely garden and fantastic view. It's a 15-minute walk from the historical center and a quick 10-minute taxi ride from the train station (need to pay in cash, about 16 euros). The breakfast was good.

It's a 15-minute walk from the historical center and a quick 10-minute taxi ride from the train station (need to pay in cash, about 16 euros). The breakfast was good. Even though complimentary drinking water or water kettle was not offered, hot water can be requested from the bar. The two-level triple room felt extremely tight with a narrow spiral staircase in the middle of the room. The room or its bathroom lacked sufficient counter space. It will be wise to upgrade to a bigger room.

“Beautiful view, little far out of town”

Traditional hotel with an amazing view from the garden. Sadly weather wasn’t quite right for enjoying the view and without that you are based 15 walk from town (which if you go back and forth in the day needs to be taken into account). Our room was a decent size but did face the road, and I’d agree… more

Traditional hotel with an amazing view from the garden. Sadly weather wasn’t quite right for enjoying the view and without that you are based 15 walk from town (which if you go back and forth in the day needs to be taken into account). Our room was a decent size but did face the road, and I’d agree with an earlier review that updating the bed cover would brighten things. The hairdryer is one of the old fashioned ones on the wall, so might be best to bring your own. Breakfast was good though given it is a cold buffet it would be simpler to be able to self-serve. The staff were friendly and helpful but if we returned I would probably get somewhere in the centre of Siena.
