They had a lovely continental breakfast every morning, which we ate in the garden overlooking the incredible view and hillside of the Tuscan landscape. I highly recommend this hotel over something that lacks the views.

Just amazing! Our room looked out over the garden and the hills beyond Siena and it was as if we…read morewere looking out at a painting. The room itself was just beautiful with a lovely bathroom. The staff were super friendly and the whole experience just first rate. The hotel is convenient to all the attractions, great restaurants and also a nice little supermarket. They have an electric kettle and instant coffee in the room as well as a fridge. It was so nice to be able to enjoy a coffee before heading out for the day. They do offer parking for 10 Euros a day, and clear instructions on how to get in and out of the City without getting fined! Remember, the City center is a no drive area for non residents. Just do as the hotel indicates and you will be fine. The other recommendation is to book directly, they assured me they charge less than going through Booking or Expedia and will also discount if you pay in cash.

First off, wow with the complaints from the other people…read more What a bunch of pansies. This was hands down my favorite spot during my whole stay in Tuscany. Firstly, it is perfectly located. After spending 2 nights in Florence with all its city noise, hopping to Siena was just what I needed. This hotel is located up in the hill so you have a great view of the city. The sunrise from the bar was something else. With that said, if you plan to walk to the city center, good luck to you. You can do it, but not during the summer. I drove to the city on our first day and was able to find parking fairly quickly. Checkin was easy. The lady who helped us (I regrettably didn't get her name but she had short hair and worked during the morning shift) was so helpful. I made a little bit of a booboo and booked a tour leaving from Florence the next day and so I had to cancel it. She found us another company doing the same tour for the next day and took care of everything. She took care of it like a boss. She also took care of another tour we ended up booking (and got us a discount) for the next day. She definitely made the whole experience stress free. Thank you so much again. Grazie. Grazie. Grazie. The free breakfast provided was something else. They legitimately have everything. The spread was quite impressive. You also get to eat outdoors with a view of the city so that was definitely a plus. We ended up eating dinner there on our first night and had a great time. The staff were extra awesome. A complete 180 from the city folk. If you need a cab, the staff will get one for you within minutes. Our room was super spacious. The bathroom was so enormous I couldn't get over it. The outdoor seating area was a nice touch. I did spend a bit of a time walking the grounds on my own and couldn't help but oooh and ahhhh. It is seriously picturesque and makes me want to get married there. I don't even believe in marriage. Special shoutout to Atla for making us awesome drinks. Negroni is now my go to. Thanks for the smokes too. You'll definitely find me here the next time I'm in Tuscany. That's for sure.

Nice, clean rooms. BIG bathrooms!…read more There are more rooms on the property than it seems, so when you make a reservation try to request a room in the main building if you want a room with a scenic view. Otherwise, your room might not have a view of Siena. Should also mention that it is a cab ride (9-12 euro depending on time) away from the center of Siena... or you can hike/walk there although I didn't attempt it. They say it is 2km but over half up that is winding up roads to the top. They have decent lunch on the grounds as well as a restaurant for dinner (I didn't eat dinner though), large pool and "gardens" you can walk through. The staff is more than accommodating and very nice! WiFi available for a hourly or daily fee. All-in-all I would stay here again if I went to Siena. Being away from the city center was a nice change!

I was so excited to stay at the nicest hotel in Siena on our trip and we stayed here 2 nights…read more After the first night, I woke up covered in bites. I told my husband I thought there were bedbugs and he thought I was crazy. I was itchy all day and had about 10 to 12 bites all over my body. The next night we were up all night. He started getting bites as well. We told the hotel in the middle of the night and they said that we must have left the window open. We let them know we did not open the window. They let us switch rooms at 4 am after being up for hours and going back and forth on them about this, but the damage was done. The next morning they apologized and said they misunderstood with the language barrier and thought that there were flying insects in the room. They told us that they would refund us for the entire stay because of the inconvenience and how grossed out we were. We showed the front desk lady our bodies covered in bites and she apologized and said she would refund the entire stay. When I got home and still had the charge I called back and they said they didn't find bugs and wouldn't refund us. No contact from them at all they just changed their mind. A simple Google search will let you know how challenging it is to see and find them. We certainly saw them AND showed the staff our bodies covered in bites. This was such a disappointing and disgusting experience. We had to go launder all our clothes in the middle of our vacation, couldn't bring our luggage into any other hotel after this, and the fact they think we would make this up when we showed them our bodies were covered in bites is appalling. Not 5 star service or cleanliness, don't stay here.

My room was beautiful, comfortable and with a beautiful view of the homes in Siena. The customer service is top notch. Breakfast was included and it was a buffet of wonderful variety of food. We also had a complimentary dinner at their restaurant. It was lovely. The food was good and the service superb. I had a chocolate dessert that was a bit " chocolate egg". We poured a had drink to melt the chocolate and see what was inside. Pretty cool! I highly recommend a stay in the Grand Hotel Continental.

Nice room. Nice location. and, as Rick Steves put it, "for a steal"!!. Alma Domus is a GREAT option…read morefor staying in Siena. Pros: the PRICE!!! - 75euro per night for our stay. wow. Great Location. very close to San Domenico's church and several restaurants (though a short walk to Il Campo where the evening action is, it's still a totally conveninent location b/c you SHOULD be walking around Siena!) They have several rooms w/ incredible views of the city. First come first serve so book early! Our double room w/ private bath was clean, comfortable and had a better private bathroom than i was expecting (separately enclosed shower, not the size of a tin can, etc) It's a converted convent so don't expect the W hotel Nice buffet breakfast included (pastries, yogurt, coffee/espresso, nuuutelllaaaa, and fruit) Conveniently bookable online/via email. internet access in a common room for a couple euros. Cons: Walls are thin. I could hear a couple talking next door at night but, happily buzzed on red wine, I fell asleep anyways Front desk personnel are polite but not friendly. They answer questions but dont offer up much more. not really a con but just an FYI, We were younger than the average guest by a good 30 years. Lots of senior citizens with their valuables in a pouch wrapped around their neck. Just saying.. You're going to be spending a lot in Italy. Hotels, trains, food. Save a little and stay here. You get great quality for what you pay.

"LOCATION... LOCATION... LOCATION!!!"…read more This was our second stay at The Alma Domus, and the first since they remodeled half of the rooms... And they did a fabulous job!!! We stayed at the Alma Domus for few nights back in 2010 and promised ourselves we'd go back... We just stayed for 2 nights in mid-June 2015 and it was incredible!!! Our small group of 12 booked six of the larger remodeled rooms on the top floor with the views of the historic center and the Duomo and we were blown away!!! So location is the #1 reason to stay at The Alma Domus, just a 2-3 minute walk to Piazza del Campo... and Incredible Value is reason #2. The newly remodeled rooms and bathrooms are wonderfully appointed for a hotel in this price range!!! We had large superior triple rooms in the mid june high season for 110 euro and quad rooms for 125 euro... all with views, balconies, air-conditioning, and breakfast!!! I don't think you can find better value in Siena with this location, the charm and quaintness, and the amenities... Both the bathroom amenities(shampoo, soap, etc) and the free breakfast are very basic but fully adequate... If you can't live without your L'Occitane shampoo, and french milled soap, bring your own... Breakfast is simple but nice; juices, coffees, teas, cappuccino, espresso, croissants, pastries, cereals, fresh fruits, yogurts, sweet cakes, etc... The staff at the hotel was so friendly & helpful to our little group of friends and we found this hotel to be just magical... Waking up to the morning church bells just adds to the magic!!! Thanks Alma Domus for a truly wonderful stay, we'll be back soon!!!

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

E-Bikes power you through the very hilly terrain with ease. ( It would be brutal without them if you're not a serious rider. Traveling off property is a bit inconvenient as taxis are disatched out of Siena and take 30 minutes+.
