"Lovely hotel, convenient to Piazza di Campo and Siena city center. The front desk staff are amazing, friendly and helpful. Great recommendations for wineries and dinner. Parking was super easy, there is plenty available just next to the hotel, but we were always able to find street parking right in front. The breakfast was abundant with tons of options. The only knocks are the room is very hot, the ac was not cooling at all, beds and pillows are very hard & the bar staff was terrible. The downstairs bar was never open and the 7th floor bar/restaurant staff were terrible. After going to the bar twice and seeing how it was run and how the restaurant was run we chose to never eat there so can’t comment on the food. We bought food and wine and local markets and had dinner on our balcony, which was lovely. We would absolutely stay again, but would choose to have cocktails and dinner elsewhere or bring them back to our room and eat on the balcony. "

"The room was beautiful as was the view of the countryside Breakfast was very delightful and tasty Having a garden was very special Assistance and recommendations from the staff was outstanding The only suggestion is to do a bit of tending to the garden and the places would be spectacular Hope to return again some day"

"This "hotel" is actually a small ancient village that's been restored as a resort. It's extraordinary, though keep in mind that you'll walk outside to go to the restaurants, the lobby, etc. We absolutely loved this. Our suite had a massive patio and amazing sunset views, though our west-facing view was just trees and not the quintessential Tuscan farmland and rolling-hills view; for that you will want a suite in Alto-Borgo, the slightly uphill part of the resort with perfect southeast-facing views. The downside is those rooms are a 10 min walk from the restaurants and main part of the resort, whereas the original suites are right in the village. Oh, and by "village" I don't mean tourists and shops. There aren't any. Zero. It's totally private. And it's not near anything, so no security issues or lookieloos at all. This is a UNESCO site and so they could not build anything new, but only remodel whatever was already there. First surprise is that the road to get there is dirt. Due to UNESCO they can't pave it. Though some small sections of the ancient stone road remain, it's 99% dirt for several kilometers. A couple of disappointments are the main restaurant and the concierge service. The main, Michelin-starred restaurant is great for breakfast, but according to many guests we spoke to it's a let-down for dinner. However the Osteria restaurant is great, and dining at the golf club is good for pizza night. The concierge issues were perplexing for such an amazing resort."
