"It’s a nice place in a very historic area. Keep this in mind while reading. We were a bit confused on arrival because the hilltop towns in Italy have no drive zones with heavy fines. We couldn’t really understand how to drive to the hotel without entering the forbidden zone so we parked in a lot outside the zone. We made the mistake of taking escalators and walking quite a distance to get to the hotel. If we did it again we would have called a cab. On the exit we did call a cab and it made things a much easier. The second issue was with air conditioning. Turns out that the government regulates the use of air conditioning and it couldn’t be turned on during our stay. This wouldn’t have been a problem but the top of the hotel has a large glass roof that traps a lot of heat. So, if you are staying in the shoulder season, request a fan to the room. The place is nice, it’s not a problem, just be prepared and know that you have to be understanding and just enjoy it for what it is. Siena is a very special place. Enjoy!"

"Overall good , one runner in the gym was not working out of two so I couldn’t work out with my wife , breakfast lack of variety , not enough vegetables , good service , water was not going down in toilet, we asked to fix it but only in evening fixed it , room was good overall "

"Excellent location. Less than 15 minute walk to major attractions. Numerous restaurants close by. "

"Pretty basic stay, the bed was very hard and the pillows thin. Breakfast was generous in portions and okay given the accommodations. Staff was helpful and kind, including when we had a problem with the heating."

"Great location with a car and wanting to stay outside the ZTL. Breakfast was good and the ladies who worked the breakfast area were so very nice, kind, and helpful. "

"Walkable to town center. Comfy beds and spotless rooms. Front desk is delightful and helpful. Excellent breakfasts that you will miss later :)"

"Good breakfast! Clean!"

"This hotel is a total scam. They state that no outside food or drinks are allowed on the premises. One night, staff saw us bringing a pizza back to our room but said nothing at the time. The next morning, they suddenly demanded a €50 fine. We tried to reason with them, but they insisted on charging my credit card anyway. This was an unfair dispute and an unreasonable charge. Luckily, my credit card company eventually reversed the €50 charge. Please think twice before booking this hotel."

"Property was clean a tidy, was a little dated but still nice, view over Siena from the terrace was stunning. Staff were helpful and friendly giving us a map and guide of places of interest in the town. Included breakfast had great options and car park was convenient and safe."
