The grounds and amenities are lovely--Elena found this estate more than 18 years ago in terrible shape but used her fashion design background wisely! We cannot recommend this place enough, everyone is raving about how lucky we are to be here.

They make their own wines and olive oil which are outstanding. They only have a few rooms available so make sure to book ahead. We were greeted by Anna the property manager who was very helpful with getting us settled into our room. The room was very clean and felt like a 5-star hotel with excellent furnishings, a modern bathroom, TV, and free WiFi. Il Castagno has a restaurant on the property which served outstanding dinners with some of the ingredients coming from their farm. They served the best steak I had in all of Italy. I highly recommend visiting Il Castagno for a peaceful and relaxing experience in Tuscany. We'll definitely stay there again.

Excellent value for a hotel that is within walking distance to get inside the city walls of Siena…read more Front office staff were friendly and helpful. The free breakfast buffet has a good variety. It wasn't amazing, but the size of the spread was pretty impressive (see my photos). There were a few hot items - scrambled eggs and also something that looked like hot dogs. Also a pancake machine. The cold items were numerous! Fruit (fresh, canned, and dried), a few different kinds of crackers, an assortment of bread/rolls (savory... pretty hard unfortunately; sweet pastries; bread and a toaster), yogurt, cereal, jams, chocolate hazelnut spread. Only downsides: - really thin walls. I could hear my neighbors talking and ear-shattering snoring, so it was hard to sleep - can't control the temperature of the room. We ended up opening the window to make it less hot, and then it was perfect

We spent an amazing two days and one night at I Terzi di Siena which is a beautiful place to really absorb the allure of Siena. I Terzi is conveniently located near Piazza di Campo (Campo Square), which is the center of town. A cool makeshift horse race is held in the Campo once a year. I Terzi is located in one of the tallest and oldest buildings in Siena and offers its guests breathtaking views of the Sienese rooftops, Cathedral and magnificent sunsets. We had the pleasure of viewing a glorious sunset from the terrace while drinking wine and hanging out with a couple from Australia and another from Germany. From the terrace, one can admire the Torre del Mangia (Mangia Tower), the Siena Cathedral, the Basilica Cateriniana San Domenico (Church of San Domenico) or just gaze off and lose yourself in one of the best views in all of Siena. The rooms are all recently renovated and furnished quite pleasantly. We shared bathroom in the hall with another room but we never had an issue with availability. It's like a fancy hostel for grown ups. . I Terzi di Siena also has a fully equipped kitchen, living room and a free wi-fi connection in every room. It's very easy to feel at home here. We had a spectacular time at I Terzi di Siena and can definitely recommend it to almost all travelers. Due to the nature of this historic building, it does not have an elevator (lift). So we caution that if you have difficulty traversing up five flights of stairs, then this is not the spot for you. Most people can make it up just fine. They do offer assistance with luggage, but make sure to let them know in advance so they are around to assist you. Their reception is only open during certain times of the day, so plan ahead. That said, if you do not mind a little work out, this is a very comfortable, centrally located place to stay with literal heavenly views that will make it well worth it.

Staying at Terzi Di Siena was one of the worst experiences I have ever had at a hotel. Because of…read moretheir poor communication, and misinformation regarding check in/out, we are now stuck paying $300 in parking tickets they said they would take care of. The fine print on their site says. "The property is located in a restricted traffic area. Guests can access this area for free for 60 minutes, for loading/unloading of luggage. Please contact the property for further information". Following this inforamtion, we drove to the property, dropped off the luggage (parked for no more than 20 minutes), gave our license plate number to the hotel, and did the same for picking up our luggage. Fast forward 2 months, we receive two tickets from the Siena Police department, totaling $300. This place had given the police station the wrong license plate numbers. Their first response was "No problem, we will take care of this for you" However that did not happen. They did not take care of it, stopped responding to our calls and messages and we are now stuck paying for a $300 ticket. I would not stay here or trust this place, despite the other reviews written.

We did NOT have a car and were still able to do everything that we wanted either by walking, bus, train, or taxi; all are available and very convenient from this location. The bed and breakfast is charming, spotless, and very comfortable. I agree that this is one of the best breakfasts in Italy. I can't say enough about our host Gianni who helped us figure out the details of our tours and transportation during our 5 day visit (two wineries, Cinque Terre, Pisa, Florence, and Sienna). He and his family were very hospitable and made us feel like we were the only ones there. One day we'll be back, gazing at the beautiful view from the terrace and sipping on a glass of wine.
