Siena Hotels with Breakfast

It was a wonderful stay. Pros: * The rooms are very spacious and have beautiful views * Breakfast was good, plenty of options but till 10am on weekdays. And they really start taking away all the food at 10am. * Right in the center of the city, you can walk anywhere * They keep your suitcases after checkout. I asked them if I can come back for them later that day, and they were nice and kept them. Cons *No coffee machine in room. They do have a fridge though. *No iron in room but they do have an ironing room *No parking, but down the street there is free parking, a 8 min walk. I easily found a parking at 10.30pm

Excellent hotel, real five-star hotel service grade, every detail is exquisite and upscale. Okay, not much to say. If you choose this home, it is absolutely right, you will be in the history record. Let's talk about the shortcomings. We went by car. We need to contact the hotel in advance. We will give you a GPS address and follow this navigation to reach the hotel. Hotel help parking is 45 euros a day, little expensive! Everything else is satisfactory!

We were lucky to spend three nights at the Hotel Athena on our recent visit to Siena. Our room was comfortably large, nicely furnished, with a very comfortable bed with nice linens. The outdoor terrace and bar opened every evening at 5 (this is contingent on good weather, which we were fortunate to have); it's a lovely place to have a drink and enjoy the lovely view of the countryside and the sunset. Breakfast was included in our rate; the selection of breakfast items was good, with freshly baked pastries, scrambled eggs, a variety of meats, cheeses, and fruits, plus cereal and yoghurt. Guests were expected to make their own coffee from the espresso/coffee machine. The staff was helpful throughout; the receptionists were gracious, the bartender very professional. The historic center of Siena is a fairly easy 15-minute walk from the hotel (prepare for some hills along the way). The nearest restaurants are about 8-10 minutes away by foot; we didn't try the hotel dining room except for breakfast. We'll certainly consider the Hotel Athena again when next we're in Siena; it's convenient to the center of town, and really nicely appointed.

The hotel is a great place to stay with. Receptionist named Neomi was very nice, kind and listening. The hotels surrounding garden and parking is great as well. (without the above I would give a rating of terrible) Breakfast is medium minus - we have expected far and beyond from a Sheraton/Marriot property.... The only one thing that really upset us was an incident where my laptop wireless mouse and keyboard were missing one AA battery. I went down to reception at 7:15am and asked for help - the best idea the team there had to provide is to go outside the hotel and find a shop. I've asked them to be a bit more creative - and they agreed to ask their maintenance department. When I can back at 8:00 the answer was still negative - maintenance department has no batteries. Given such a big place with so many electrical devices to handle - I was quite shocked and asked to share this incident with the duty manager upon my checkout - she is busy I was told. I left my mobile number and asked her to call me once she is free....I'm waiting for her call up until now... Conclusion - if duty manager provides such guest experience, why the other team members will not behave the same?!

The attitude is very enthusiastic and the facilities are four-star standard. It's a bit far from the city center. The key is the meal, which is great. The baked snacks for breakfast are unforgettable. They are not oily or sweet, but they are particularly fragrant. For dinner, I ordered a roast pork knee with plum sauce (a small amount, only half a pork knee, not a large portion like Germany), and I even licked the plate. I ordered a pumpkin leek soup for my mother. She has a bad appetite and feels comfortable after eating it.

This place is heaven. I just loved the setting, looking out over the Tuscan countryside, listening to birds, enjoying the nicest breakfast we had in all of Italy. It was hard to get up from our table on the terrace and go anywhere. If you seek relaxation, this is the place for you. Giacomo and Lorenzo show great attention to detail. They will go out of their way to facilitate your stay and your travels. Suzannah (sp?) who helps serve breakfast was also very pleasant and responsive. Really, the staff and the setting here are above reproach. Here are some more details, to temper your expectations. The single room has a small bed, but it was quite affordable. I appreciated that it was an option and the fact that the management was flexible in allowing me to switch my reservation from a double. Siena is ten minutes walk from the villa, but you must walk further to access the town's main sites. This was not a problem for me, except for when it was pouring rain. There is also a bus option right outside of the property. Even if you have a car, this saves you the hassle of figuring out where/how to park closer to Siena. There is one modest restaurant in the immediate vicinity of the villa, that serves pizza for the most part. Again, if you walk further into town, there are many options and the hotel's staff provided me with very trustworthy recommendations of where to eat. I do not think you will regret coming here. You are at Siena's doorstep but far enough away that you can savor the peace and beauty of the Tuscan countryside. Grazie mille Giacomo and Leonardo!

When I took the room, I said that I didn't find the order, and I took a long time to get the room. Driving is ok, parking is free and the room is too old. No quilt. Only one can be covered like a sheet. Asked the waiter to give the quilt, and gave two very shabby blankets. . . About 2 kilometers from the city, on the top of the mountain. The price is very poor

Booked very last minute when our plans changed and we had a fantastic stay. Don't be put off by the outside of the hotel which is quite plain, the minute youstep inside it is light and bright and you will get a warm friendly welcome. Our room was very spacious, had everything we needed and the bed was exceptionally comfortable. The air con had been on as it was a warm day so the room was a comfortable temperature. Breakfast was excellent and all of the staff could not be more friendly and helpful. It is a short walk to the old town and about 20 mins to the main piazza. I had hoped for hotel parking as we had a car full of stuff but this was full as we booked so late, so if you're booking ahead reserve in advance. There was free parking in the streets around and we had no problems. Very close to the train station An excellent stay, very good value and would certainly stay again

A very warm welcome for two soaking wet cycle tourists greeted us on our arrival at this centrally located hotel. Our bikes were securely parked in the hotel garage and our wet luggage did not cause any alarm. Our room was small (but cheap!) and the heating was on, which was nice. We stayed two nights and had both breakfasts in the dining room - excellent. I can't get on with the Italian taste for sweet things in the morning but the selection of cakes looked amazing. I had cold meats, various cheeses, lovely bread, fruit, yoghurt and a boiled egg (we were cycling after all). The shower was great and the room was cleaned in the morning.

My wife and I spent three nights here on our honeymoon trip to Italy. The villa is very nice, well-kept, clean and not too far from Siena and other small towns in Tuscany. Our room was spacious and clean, the bathroom especially was well-appointed. We truly enjoyed sitting in the lounge having aperitif and cocktails each night, and one night had a yummy dinner in the on-site restaurant. What I really want to highlight is the hotel's staff. In particular, Elena, who checked us in and was at the front desk our first two days, was absolutely wonderful. From showing us a map and marking parking and sites in Siena, to calling cabs for us (about 15 euro to Siena) but she truly went above and beyond finding a few activities for us to do on one of our days there. She researched and booked a private horseback ride which was great but what was OUTSTANDING was the private cheese tasting she arranged for us at Podere S. Anna Organic Caseificio Company based in Radi. The breakfast was very nice, and bacon and scrambled eggs are included with no extra charge if you ask for them. The rest of the staff was also excellent, we saw the same people each day and they all made us feel at home at Villa Scacciapensieri.
