Just returned from Tuscany last week. Only stayed one night at this hotel and found it to be so different from your run of the mill hotel!
The character of the place is great. Good location within few minutes walk of Duomo.
Seems to be set around a courtyard which was a great suntrap with chairs, tables and parasols and lovely for our breakfast.
The room seemed a bit austere compared to the San Gallo in Florence where we stayed the previous night but on opening the shutters we were presented with the most fantastic view of the valley! I was often to be found in various stages of dress just gazing out the window!!
Room had good firm bed, LCD TV, mini bar and air-con. There was a kettle in a wardrobe but no cups or anything so don't know what that was about! Bathroom was modern though small. There was another door in our room and I guess it was so you could link up to the room next door? We were on first floor - no lift, but receptionist did take one of our bags up.
Rather a gem of a place really if you're looking for something different!

Fabulous hotel - a little quiet oasis, very convenient to Il Campo. Small hotel with an intimate feel to it. The deluxe room is spacious and the bathroom large and very modern. Air condiditioning was a bit noisy so we opened the window as we went to bed, it may just have been our room as no one else has mentioned it. Loved the old original features alongside the modern up to date facilities such as red bathroom, LCD TV and electronic keys. We will be back another time.

We loved it! Difficult to find good value hotels in Siena, but this is one of them.
The room was nice. Very modern despite its situation within the old convent building. The hotel is situated centrally but is a real oasis of calm, making for a great break.

The staff were amongst the most helpful and friendliest I have met. The negatives were an undersized breakfast room, a lack of amenities (you won't want any, Siena is on the doorstep) and extremely tight parking.

Really nice hotel, it had a real authentic feel. Good breakfast. We went for the upgraded room and were delighted as we had an outdoor terrace. The hotel is near the centre of town - but it can be tough work finding it when you have your luggage as Siena is a city of hills. Siena is beautiful thoughand well worth a visit.

Stayed 5 nights here from 6/25 – 6/29. I’m in agreement with all the other positive reviews here. It’s a quaint and charming place and quite conveniently located. The rooms are quiet and comfortable. There’s an interesting mix of modern and old with electronic room keys that control the air conditioner and lights and flat screen LCD TV’s. The bathroom was modern with a good shower. Breakfast was also good, a nice assortment of meat, cheese, cereal, and sweets along with fresh squeezed orange juice served in a beautiful courtyard. The young women that worked the front desk were always helpful. Special thanks to Eliza (sp?) who went to great lengths to help us when we left the lights on in the car and couldn’t figure out why we couldn’t open the doors and get it started! She went back and forth with us and made the calls to EuropeCar. It took her awhile to get through to them but once she did, it only took them about 15 minutes to get us and get us back up and running! We also were in Siena right before the Palio and went to see the trial races one morning. Overall a very nice experience at the hotel and in the town.
