I absolutely recommend Podere Il Pero. We used it as a base to see the other cities, sites, and wineries and it was the perfect choice. We did NOT have a car and were still able to do everything that we wanted either by walking, bus, train, or taxi; all are available and very convenient from this location. The bed... More

Since 2005 I have had the pleasure of visiting Podere il Pero a number of times, either with family/freinds or by myself. The hotel is located just out side the ancient walls of Siena, with very easy access to the city center either by bus or by walking. The place is really easy to get to by car, and a... More

This converted farmhouse is authentic, charming, well furnished and provided the best breakfast spread we saw in Tuscany. Fresh fruits and jams, Tuscan breads and cheeses, cereals, homemade cookies, cakes, yoghurt, pastry, ham&cheeses all there with my favorite stewed prunes and super strong Italian coffee. The inkeeper Gianni is very friendly, hospitable and genuine and printed out some schedules for... More

Although we only stayed one night this was a great place and Gianni was very welcoming. We literally had our pick of the rooms! The farm house is perfect and really makes you feel you are staying in the Tuscan countryside, although you are only a stones throw from the town of Sienna - walking distance! For breakfast we were... More

We stayed here for five nights, while touring throughout Tuscany, and loved every minute of it. The house is ideally located for those traveling by car, outside Siena's walls (and driving restrictions) but withing easy reach. The meaning of "Podere" is approximately "old farm house", and it is indeed very sturdily built, with thick interior walls that provide excellent insulation... More

We stayed here for 2 nights while touring Tuscany and had a wonderful experience. I can’t say enough positive things about our host, Gianni. He was so warm and welcoming from the minute we arrived, and really went out of his way to make sure our stay was extra special. He has so much knowledge on Tuscany and in particular... More

My wife and I have stayed twice at Podere il Pero and loved it both times. Our most recent stay was for the Palio in August and several years before that we spent a few weeks in the ground-floor apartment using it as a base to explore Tuscany. Gianni and his parents are the nicest hoteliers we've ever come across.... More

We stayed with some friends here for 1 night when we traveled in Tuscany recently. We were delighted with Podere Il Pero's proximity to Siena, and while it was a bit tricky to find, it was worth it. Gianni was extremely friendly and accommodating. The rooms were very clean and charming and the property was well-kept. The breakfast buffet was... More

First of, you'll need a car to get to here. Then again, it's Toscana - you should be in a car. Gianni, the host is a warm and nice guy. A native to the area, he is rightly proud of Siena & Toscana. He did provide us with good advice on where to go & what to do. Rooms are... More
