Siena travel guide: where to stay, what to do and where to eat in Siena, Tuscany, Italy.

Accommodation overview

Siena offers a compact range of places to stay: a small group of historic palazzo hotels and B&Bs inside the medieval walls, a handful of 3 and 4-star hotels around the Lizza gardens, Viale Cavour and the southern gates, and many farm stays and villas in the hills of Chianti and the Crete Senesi. The Grand Hotel Continental on Banchi di Sopra and the Certosa di Maggiano are the best-known upscale options. Rooms inside the walls are limited, and prices peak from April to October and around the Palio on 2 July and 16 August. Properties outside the walls, in the San Marco, Camollia and Pispini districts, usually cost less and offer easier parking, while the countryside farm stays suit travelers with a car.

Booking tips

Get the best deals and avoid common mistakes.

Tip

Book 3 to 6 months ahead for May to October and 6 to 12 months ahead for the Palio di Siena dates, 2 July and 16 August, when rooms in the centre are scarce and prices rise

Tip

Siena is also visited as a day trip from Florence (about 1.5 hours by train or bus), so staying overnight gives quiet evenings in Piazza del Campo after the crowds leave

Tip

A city tax per person per night is collected by the property on arrival and is usually not included in the quoted price

Tip

The historic centre is a ZTL with limited traffic: drivers should arrange parking before arrival (public car parks are outside the walls, such as the Santa Caterina and Il Campo facilities) and confirm plate registration with the hotel

Tip

Siena railway station is about 1.5 km from the centre and the climb to Piazza del Campo is steep, so travelers with luggage usually take a taxi or city bus
