"A delightful stay in a perfect Tuscan villa! All of the details are living history - from the old style window fixtures to the goddess statue in the yard. And yet all the modern needs are met. The breakfast on the terrace looking over the view was sublime - the hosts could not have been more engaging - one of my favorite Italian memories.
Oh, and a fantastic ten minute walk to one of Siena's original gates - another ten minutes to the Campo. "
"Marie Louisa was AMAZING! Such a good manager. This is a delightful hotel-- splurge on the room with the terrace if you can. One of our favorite rooms ever with a view to die for. "
"We were looking for a quiet place to sleep within reasonable walking distance of Siena where we could prepare our own meals for a few days in between other adventures. The apartment was perfect, the staff were helpful and we were an easy stroll to a Coop where we could get our own food. The walk to town is about 15 minutes but pleasant and easy when you use the escalator from the train station. I wish we had been there in warmer weather when we might have used the pool as it looks lovely. If we...

A verified traveler stayed at Grand Hotel Continental Siena – Starhotels Collezione
"We had a lovely stay! Good location, around 20 minutes to get to the Piazza Il Campo on foot, otherwise buses right outside the hotel are frequent.
But there are plenty of shops and restaurants close for the hotel too.
The hotel is very clean and decorated nicely.
The breakfast was delicious and buffet remained full even when we came down for breakfast close the the cut off.
All staff were so friendly, I would particularly like to mention Patrizia at breakfast and also the lady who checked us in. They had noticed on my partners birthday and brought out a birthday plate at breakfast without being asked which was really thoughtful.
Thank you for having us and we can’t wait to visit again. "
"Staff was friendly. Breakfast was wonderful. Good location for walking through town. Uphill from the train station, but everything is uphill in Siena."
