One of my favourite hotels. ALL of the staff are excellent, helpful and friendly. Room cleaned daily. On site parking was pretty key for staying here for us but even without a car it’s nice. Only a 10 minute walk to the action. Dinner on the terrace was awesome. Not cheap but in line with elsewhere. One of the best views in Siena. And the included breakfast is amazing!! Almost worth it just for breakfast. The dinner and breakfast staff are the best, very friendly and professional. We would stay here again if back in Siena

Before we arrived the communication with the hotel was not good, but once we arrived I was stunned with how kind and helpful everyone at the hotel is. My family keeps commenting on how nice everyone is. The breakfast is very generous and delicious. The rooms are comfortable as well as the beds. I would definitely recommend.

A great hotel just outside the wall but so close a 10 min walk into Siena. Parking was good you can park the car yourself or they will park it for you. A little tight but you are in Italy. Staff were amazing. We used the terrace every night for drinks but only 1 night for dinner. The food was ok but they seemed to have a lot of problems that night. All in all a wonderful stay would stay again.

We enjoyed our stay very much. The breakfast was excellent. The staff was helpful in providing directions and information about places to eat, calling a cab, and were always polite and attentive. The location inside the walls of the hill town can make access difficult even by taxi. Walking from the bus station isn't far, but very challenging with luggage.
