"Hotel was located just outside of the gates to sienna. Half of our group walked to the center of town and half of our group took a taxi. The hotel called the taxi for us. The check-in was easy and the night person also ran the bar. We took our drinks out to the back patio area, which had a wonderful view of the city both night and daytime. Rooms were two levels. Ours had a bed downstairs with the bathroom and then a steeper staircase to a loft area with another two beds. It worked out fine. It is a very old building centuries old, which has been peacefully redone with antique accents. Yes I would stay here again."

When is the best time to go to Siena?
The best time to visit Siena is during the spring (April to June) and autumn (September to October) months, when the weather is pleasant and the city is less crowded than in the peak summer.During spring, the Tuscan countryside is particularly beautiful, with rolling green hills and wildflowers. The temperatures are mild, typically ranging from 15°C to 25°C, which is ideal for exploring Siena's historic centre on foot, including the Piazza del Campo and the Duomo. You'll find a relaxed atmosphere superb for couples looking for a romantic getaway, as the outdoor cafes and trattorias are open without being overwhelmed.Autumn also offers excellent weather, with temperatures similar to spring, usually between 15°C and 23°C. This period is superb for solo travellers who appreciate a quieter experience, allowing for more contemplative visits to museums and art galleries. The grape harvest season in Tuscany means there are often local festivals and opportunities to enjoy seasonal culinary delights. The golden light of autumn also makes for stunning photographs of the city's medieval architecture.
