When we first got to the hotel, the people were so generous and kind. It was late, and I had snuck into the breakfast room to grab a banana (which I knew I shouldn't have done) but the man at the service desk saw me sneak in and brought me a plate and knife and asked if I wanted to... More

Really great reasonably-priced hotel. Comfortable rooms, breakfast was very good, staff very welcoming. Easy to get to the old part of Siena. Would suggest getting bus or taxi to get to hotel as it is a uphill climb. Great pizza restaurant opposite.

Good location, about 10-15minutes walk from the historic centre, although this will involve an uphill climb to get there. The room is on the small side, though clean and comfortable enough. The view from our first floor room was incredible - a panoramic view of the city. On the downside, the bed covers looked like they could be hand-me-downs from... More
