Jättemysigt
Jättemysigt hotell med bra frukost och fint läge. Dock långa trappor utan hiss och en AC som var svår att stänga av.

A place we want to go back to.
The Chiostro was a great find.
The people are really helpful and friendly. The breakfast team do a great job and are really keen to go the extra mile. The room has a fantastic fresco (not the only one in the hotel) on the wall and many of the ceilings have artwork.
Sitting in the cloisters reading or sipping some wine was so relaxing. Upstairs you find a sort of mini museum in a meeting room that looks like it has not changed in a century or two.
If you like history, this is a good place to stay.

More choice for breakfast would be good. Paid for better room but toilet seat was marked and damaged. Didn’t expect that for upgraded room

Unique hotel within an old monastery. Functional rooms and perfect location within walking distance to various attractions in Siena.
However, the customer service is lacking. The parking situation is tricky due to traffic laws and is only explained (not very clearly) over the phone if you call up in advance - it would be a lot easier to have an email with instructions. We also had issues with our air on that wasn’t resolved until late into the evening. The reception staff were friendly and helpful on other occasions!

The property is within easy access from the main centre plaza.
The hotel is quite old and authentic in its decor. There is no lift and we were placed on the top floor carrying up very heavy suitcases.
The plugs wouldn’t work with our chargers even with the adapters so we had to buy new chargers which eventually worked.

Fantastic views from our room. Need to be in shape to access the rooms. The access to the Palazzo is a 15 minute walk. You can park at the hotel parking area for about 15 euro/night. The staff is very friendly. You'll need to communicate with them if you plan to park at the hotel since they need to register your vehicle with the police. Siena is truly a medieval marvel and this property give you access to the wonders of Siena.

The construction is going on around the area. I rather not stay in Siena generally. Lots of headache to get in to ZTL area and hard to get out of it. Google map is not accurate. Review saying breakfast is good but not the best.
