Palazzo Ravizza
Beautiful quaint hotel. Beautiful view from the garden. Walkable to all of the sites and restaurants, at the top of the hill- but everything is on a hill. Nice breakfast. Very relaxing place to stay. Staff was very accommodating.

Grand Hotel Continental Siena – Starhotels Collezione
This is a 5+ star facility. Our room was outrageous with frescos and paintings on the walls and ceiling. The staff went out of their way to help us with our requests and provide a history of the property. Our room had 1.5 bathrooms and the breakfast had an excellent choice of items.

Piccolo Hotel Etruria
Great service , but no water bottles in the rooms. I traveled a lot and everything around was closed so water would have been nice.

NH Siena
Room was great as was the location. Second time and it is always great. Only issue is the evening bar closes at 10:00 and fellow behind would not serve us at 10:03. Very disappointing as this was quite different than first trip.
