We had a great stay at Villa Del Sole. Room was beautiful , comfortable and immaculate. Views were fantastic! Staff were very polite and attentive. Breakfast was very good and filling. Nice enclosed breakfast area with an optional open terrace. The hotel also cleaned some of our laundry for a reasonable fee. Great location in Siena. Wish we could have stayed longer.
II Chiostro Del Carmine provided us with a spacious and comfortable room (and bathroom). Everything was clean and the building, although it had lots of stairs, was interesting. Breakfast was Ok. The big plus was that the main sights of Siena were only a 5/10 minutes walk away. Parking is available however the parking area is small and compact and the hedge we were parked next to scratched our hire car as we tried to leave. Overall the hotel is a good option for exploring Siena.
Booked very last minute when our plans changed and we had a fantastic stay. Don't be put off by the outside of the hotel which is quite plain, the minute youstep inside it is light and bright and you will get a warm friendly welcome. Our room was very spacious, had everything we needed and the bed was exceptionally comfortable. The air con had been on as it was a warm day so the room was a comfortable temperature. Breakfast was excellent and all of the staff could not be more friendly and helpful. It is a short walk to the old town and about 20 mins to the main piazza. I had hoped for hotel parking as we had a car full of stuff but this was full as we booked so late, so if you're booking ahead reserve in advance. There was free parking in the streets around and we had no problems. Very close to the train station An excellent stay, very good value and would certainly stay again
Right next to the reception, and directly below some of the apartments there is a restaurant that has live events on Saturday evenings with loud music, DJ with microphone and people dancing, cheering, clapping etc (basically like in a club/disco). We had the bedroom directly above this restaurant so we could hear everything and feel the vibrations when we put the head on the pillow. There is no reception after 7 PM but they have an emergency number that we contacted on WhatsApp to sort this out. The hotel declined all responsibility and said they can't do anything, and when I asked why they rented directly above the restaurant/disco they were rood and condescending. The party in the restaurant kept going till 3 AM when it ended up with a fight between customers right outside, below our window and next to the parking spaces for the hotel guests! When checking out we complained about the parties and the attitude of the person responding to the emergency numbers, and it turns out that they knew about the parties, and they described it as some noise and it would be a little later in the evening. There was nothing they could do except apologize, but I wonder why didn't they make any complaints for the noise to the police to ensure the comfort of their customers or at least contact the restaurant to stop at a decent hour (especially since this is a restaurant they are recommending when you check-in and on the information in the room). Surely there were solutions so that we could have been able to sleep in the room we paid to sleep in, but apparently they did not care.
We were excited to stay at La Dimora Dei Monaci for our honeymoon, but the room we were assigned was disappointing. It was outdated, with mismatched furniture that made it feel more like an office than a guest room. Several outlets weren’t working, and the radiator provided minimal heat, which was an issue during the chilly nights. Upon further review, we realized that the room tier we had booked had been downgraded online since we made our reservation, making it the lowest option available. Despite our polite request to switch to a different room, we were informed that no alternatives were available. What was incredibly concerning was that staff entered our room without asking while we were out. They unplugged our laptop to fix an outlet issue with another guest’s TV, leaving us with only one working outlet. There was no communication about this beforehand, which left us feeling uncomfortable about the lack of privacy and respect for our space.
EExplore60101973004Something that should be known about this hotel is that management is remote and check in is done through a phone app. Our travel service did not communicate this to us so it was a bit of a surprise to arrive and find no one home. The hotel is fairly convenient to train station (10 minute walk) and rooms are nice, but it's a 25 minute uphill jaunt to old Sienna whether you huff it up the hill or take the escalators. And the surrounding neighborhood, while safe, is not charming and has few food options. We also found that the breakfast service would be canceled if insufficient guests signed up beforehand. Get it, but would have liked to know before booking. We chose it for convenience to station, but , in retrospect, wish we had opted to stay in the old city.
Prenotato per una afosa serata d'agosto. Struttura facile da trovare raggiungibile solo con passaggio attraverso ztl. Quindi necessita registrazione attraverso il sito del comune. Parcheggio facile da trovare di fronte alla struttura. Scale per raggiungere gli appartamenti, camera senza aria condizionata e con un solo piccolo ventilatore. Niente zanzariera alla finestra dove troviamo un formicaio. Ci indicano una zona dove fumare. Pur non essendo fumatori, facciamo un giro e vediamo che la struttura ha un giardino bellissimo, ma non curato da anni. Per il resto fortunatamente la stanza è rinnovata da poco, tutto nuovo, non soffriamo troppo il caldo, il frigobar è ok, il wi fi funziona, il bagno è piccolo ma funzionale. Prezzo non alto vista la zona. Con un pò più di cura ai dettagli sarebbe una soluzione imperdibile per chi va a Siena.
Very nice hotel and very well situated in the middle of Siena. The man at the reception is super friendly and can give you good advice on restaurants and things to do. Comfortable, clean, spacious room. Don’t hesitate! Go there.
Nice hotel within 15 minutes of the station and of the town centre. It is up a hill from the station and the hill continues into town. Because of this there are lovely views from the hotel. After our original booking we decided to upgrade to a room with a terrace which had beautiful views over the town. The hotel also has a really pretty garden - on the upper level you can have your breakfast rather than eating inside. On the lower level there are comfy seats. Our room was fairly basic but very clean and the air conditioning was brilliant. Breakfast was continental with a mix of ham, eggs, cheese, cakes, pastries, fruit, cereals, bread, jams and honey. A great choice. We found the staff to be very friendly and helpful and let us leave our bags after checking out while we went out for a few hours before catching our train. Also a couple of nice bars and restaurants very close by if you don’t want to walk into town.
I spent one night here as I was just passing through. The room was a great size, and comfortable bed. There is a bus stop right out front and the bus runs pretty frequently. The hotel is even walkable if you really wanted to. The ladies at the front reception (day & night) were very nice, gave great information as well as provided a taxi number just in case. I recommend staying here
A nice experience. Clean and quiet environment. The room with balcony over looking Siena, was nice and spacious. Great breakfast, lots of choice between sweet and savory. Excellent balance between quality and price. Recommended for long stays.
