The dining experience was great, especially enjoying meals in the same garden with the beautiful view. The facilities were fantastic, providing everything I needed for a relaxing vacation.
The hotel is a bit old-fashioned but gets the job done. The rooms, although small, were clean with a distinct smell of bleach. The service was exceptional, going above and beyond to accommodate us. The location is great for exploring Siena and its surroundings, although not ideal for walking to the old city area. The dining experience was pleasant with continental-style options. Overall, it's a good choice with some minor drawbacks.
Staying at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were comfortable and silent but felt a bit cramped due to the layout, although the heat worked well. The service was exceptional, with friendly and helpful staff offering valuable recommendations. The location was good, just a short walk from Siena, but the noise from the busy road nearby was a downside. The dining options were decent, serving tasty coffee and basic items, with great views of the surrounding hills. Overall, a comfortable stay with a few minor drawbacks.
I absolutely loved my stay at the hotel! The location was perfect for evening strolls into Siena and easy access to the historic center. The service was top-notch, with everyone being incredibly helpful and attentive. The dining experience was a delight, especially with the beautiful countryside views. The only downsides were the warm room and the tiny shower opening that my husband couldn't fit through, given his broad shoulders.
Staying at this hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms facing the terrace garden were dingy and depressing, but the location was surprisingly close to the historical center. The service was delightful and very helpful, although the dining experience was a bit overrated. The view of the Tuscan countryside from the hotel was truly stunning.

The hotel offers a unique experience with rooms spread on two floors connected by a spiral staircase.
