Family apartment with magical view on the old city, balcony, wifi & parking

The tasteful furnishings in our family apartment reflect the love and care we have put into it and clearly distinguish these accommodations from typical vacation rentals that only offer the bare necessities. The apartment is located in a quiet residential area close to San Domenico, just a 10-minute stroll from the center of town (with the bus in front of the house you can reach the pedestrian zone in three minutes without walking uphill...).
The house is built on a slope: The apartment is actually on the 3rd floor but it is half a floor below the main entrance (about 15 steps down the stairs without elevator).

All of the rooms feature antique furnishings. Both of the generously sized bedrooms have hardwood parquet floors with a fishbone design, while the yellow marble flooring in the living room creates a unique, colorful accent.
The two baths, both with windows, have been completely renovated and feature luxurious amenities. Thank to the brand new water heater (installed 2019 December) the warm water supply is now much better than the years before. Water pressure and temperature are ideal.

The kitchen provides virtually every convenience you could think of, including a dishwasher, washing machine, microwave oven, refrigerator, oven and of course a gas stove.

The spacious living room offers a magnificent view of the cathedral hill that simply cannot be found anywhere else. On the balcony you'll find a bistro table and two chairs inviting you to enjoy sunset with an aperitiv or a good wine glas.

All balconies offer sun awnings to protect you against heat and sunlight at summer.

IMPORTANT: A brand new portable air conditioner "PINGUINO DE LONGHI" is available to cool down the master bedroom or the living room. Both sleeping rooms are equipped with modern fans.

Free WI-FI (1000 Mbit fibreglass)!

Nice apartment for couples
My husband and I along with my sister and brother in law stayed three nights. The well appointed apartment fit our needs and was in walking distance to most restaurants. The mattresses were good in both bedrooms!! We would stay here again if we’re lucky enough to travel to Siena.

A spacious and homely apartment
The apartment is very spacious with lots of antiques and has a home from home feel. It is about a 20 min walk into town, uphill in places but straight forward. Parking is tight so bring a small car 😊. The views across to the old town are great and the balcony space a plus.

Fabulous Apartment
This apartment felt like a cozy home. I walked in and couldn’t believe how beautiful it was. It has gorgeous antique furniture. My husband said the best part of the trip was the four of us sitting on the balcony, drinking wine and eating cheese. I didn’t want to leave!

Spacious, convenient apartment in Siena, walkable to historic town center
We enjoyed our 10-day stay at this conveniently located and roomy apartment, an easy walk to the main piazza in downtown Siena. It was clean and had a well-supplied kitchen and laundry, two key requirements for us for week-plus stays. The property manager met us at the door with the key and showed us around. The apartment itself also has several small balconies (though no furniture on them) and from two of them you have a lovely view of Siena. Living in this apartment felt very much like we had taken over an Italian grandma's house, with the covered furniture, dark paintings and glass chandeliers all from an older time, though I suppose that matches the vibe of a medieval city. However the wardrobes in the bedroom have a strong mothball smell and were the only closets, so we didn't use them and kept them closed. Although there is a small parking area across the street, parking is slightly stressful as there is no designated spot, we often felt like we got the last spot on the entire street. Small grocery stores are also within walking distance. Overall, the apartment worked fine for us.

A week in Siena
Everything was great at Alessandra's apartment in Siena. Almost every room has its own balcony which was nice when sipping on some local wines. The location was just outside city center allowing for easy access to the city by foot and major roads for day trips to Florence and Pisa. Alessandra was very quick to respond when some issues came up and she has some great suggestions on places to go eat. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a stay in Siena and Tuscany.

Wonderful apartment, Breathtaking view
This was the best apartment rented in my many years of traveling using VRBO! The view from balcony of the Siena Cathedral with the full moon overhead was magical. Beds were very comfortable, the kitchen well stocked and Alessandra and Sara went above and beyond . The pictures do not do this great place justice. Highly recommend.

Perfect location to explore Siena
We drove down from Lucca for 2 nights to attend the Palio. We wanted to stay outside the walls and Alessandra’s apartment was perfectly located about as close to the city gate as possible. In spite of the Palio we located a parking spot within spitting distance of the apartment. We chose however not to move the car till after the Palio for fear of losing such a good spot. The apartment was much larger than we expected and everything was in working order. It had a full kitchen including dishwasher and washing machine but we never cooked as we were so close to the restaurants in Siena. If we returned to Siena I would certainly rent her apartment again

5/5 Perfect!
Look no further for a place to stay in Sienna. We stayed here as a base for visiting the Tuscany area. To begin, communication with Alessandra was great as she responded to my many inquiries right away which I really appreciated and check-in and check-out were a breeze. This beautiful home is super clean with all amenities including air conditioning and 2 bathrooms. The views from the balcony are spectacular which we enjoyed w/ a bottle of wine! 10-15 minute walk to Piazza del Campo and all Sienna has to offer. Check out Alessandra's book as it includes tons of useful information and recommendations. We had a wonderful time in Sienna and definitely recommend this apartment!

The apartment was beautiful, accurately described in the photos. Seating and beds were very comfortable. The only downside was that it was a bit of a hike (about a 10 minute walk uphill) to get into the old city

The house was in a great location. The house was dusty in many areas. The listing was lacking a few important details 1. no one is at the address to let you in. You must give an exact time you will be arriving as someone has to drive to let you in. I told them when my flight landed, and I would communicate my eta once I had the rental car. Luggage took awhile to arrive as well as a line at the rental car place. The communication was lacking 2. the max fan blows out warm air and was not helpful at all in the hot humid weather 3. the person that lets you in does not speak English, was in a hurray to leave as she waited for us longer than anticipated and ran us through the house so quickly 4. The host asked us for our passports via email more than once was not organized There was a detailed book there by the host so that was helpful, once we found it. Overall it is a great location, close to the city center, parking on the street was okay but not always close to the house.

Very Comfortable
You are renting someone’s home, very comfy. Has everything - we cooked several meals. Grocery store and pizzeria very close by. Off the beaten tourist path but an easy walk to the old town. Loved the balconies and the view of the Duomo. The apartment is basically at street level so no carrying luggage up multiple sets of stairs. Alessandra is very helpful and connected us with a local tour guide that arranged a personal visit to a Chianti vineyard. Alessandra has also prepared a full information book for visitors with all the information you will need.

This was the perfect apartment for the two of us. It is furnished so well with beautiful antiques, excellent appliances, and an extremely helpful guide book for guests, Alessandra's hospitality was perfect and available when needed. The views of Il Doumo, the valley, and the city are spectacular. A supermarket is a short walk and the walk towards the city center is not long. We will return and enjoy this place again.

Two thumbs up
The apartment was spotless and had everything we needed for the week. We walked up the steep hill to the historic center almost every day, it's about 15 minutes on foot. Parking on the street was usually available right in front of the apartment, or a block away. Alessandra was quick to respond to emails when I needed her. It was cool and rainy most of the days we were there, we appreciated having extra blankets for the bed, umbrellas available and drying racks for our wet clothes. 10/10 would stay here again
