Such a beautiful place. Like stepping into Sienese history. Amazing breakfasts on the balcony overlooking S Giuseppe and the hills beyond. Caterina provided dairy free alternatives and a kettle so we could make tea any time. Everyone was really helpful. The original Etruscan house has was added to in the 15 and 17 centuries. Wander around to find the old kitchen, patterned marble floors, painted ceilings, and terraced garden. Lots of nooks and crannies and places to curl up with a book or sketch pad. It’s quirky, creaky and crumbling and all the more lovable for it.

great location and the place is full of character, very special. The room was clean comfortable and quiet. Only bad things: no AC (which is not good during the summer, and you can’t open the window because there is no mosquito screen and mosquitoes will get in) and our bathroom was very small and uncomfortable, it felt like a toy bathroom, awkward and would get water everywhere. Beautiful ceiling. Overall good.

The room was very charming and the b&b is in a great location, just a few minute walk from piazza di campo. The staff was very helpful. The only complaints is that is was very cold is the room at all times and my friend had dirt on her bedsheets.

As a person with bad knees, walking to the hotel and then up the stairs was not easy, but we did love the room and view and were allowed to leave from a different exit that was much easier.

Unbeatable location in quiet side street. Full of character and charm. Large comfortable clean room with amazing views. Charming staff. Only issue is breakfast which is brought to room with limited choice and variable quality. Contact I advance for parking instructions

Great location in ancient building

This is a b&b in a 15th century building. The location is great but is quite an uphill hike if you don’t get a cab( I didn’t) so I wouldn’t recommend it for people with mobility issues. The room was adequate, had the basics. Breakfast is brought to you.

Siena Great Location

Good location and condition, nice service, funny to get the breakfast in the very old patio. a Little bit impractical to get into the 3rd floor without elevator. But they have and access entry available during the day. Not AC but was very confortable for the end on august 2018.

Old style hotel with character

I loved the place. The staff were welcoming, efficient and helpful. The location of the hotel was central but quiet. The building was gorgeous. It was very old and had so much character and history. The single room was large, a comfortable double bed and a lovely view. There were lounge areas with tea making facilities, a library and lovely gardens to sit in. Breakfast was brought to the room each morning and I was given my breakfast the night before I left because I had an early departure. I look forward to staying there again and highly recommend the place.

Has location in its favour

This hotel was chosen by us as one with character rather than modern. It is very close to the square, up a very steep hill but it is tired, worn and basic. The staff were lovely, the breakfast not so! The ensuite bathroom smelt very musty but we had a suite so we used the other one. The furnishings are basic, unloved and not so fresh. The bed sheets and towels were ok though. The rooms shown on the pictures on the website must be well hidden because all that we saw were not plush or picturesque. For us we used it as a base, to sleep and shower and that was ok. Wouldn’t really want to spend any time there unless the weather was good and you could sit outside in the garden. To sum up, basic, close to the centre and ok for a weekend if you are no y too fussy.

Decent hotel in Siena

My daughter and I stayed one night. It was easy walking to the attractions. Wear good walking shoes, Siena is all hills and steps. Be prepared to walk up steps with luggage, there is no elevator at the hotel. Room was a suite with living room, kitchen area, bedroom and small bathroom. Shower is square and tight - not recommended for big person (more than 200 lbs or so). Front desk were lovely attendants and very helpful. They bring breakfast to your room, breakfast food okay - I would skip it next time. Because it rained we couldn't enjoy the outside terrace that looked lovely. My impression is Siena is beautiful in the summer with all it's outside beauty and activities. Early November is not really ideal for this location.

Location excellent but..........

the hotel was in an amazing location but not happy with the cleanliness and lack of facilities in the room. we were 2 and got one towel between us for the shower!!!! the shower....was so small we had to wedge in side ways.... the main disappointment was the breakfast being a tray in our room, with packet croissants !!!!! the room was dirty also. sorry to be so negative but we have travelled most of Italy and this has been the first let down. I would give it 10 \ 10 for location.
