Hotel Villa Scacciapensieri

The Villa's restaurant is incredible! A bit expensive, but hey, what hotel restaurant isn't? The front desk was extremely helpful to my finace and I with booking reservations at museums, learning the bus system, and booking tours. We loved our stay at the Villa, though it is a bit far from Siena's city center.

The location made getting in and out of Siena a bit tough, but I think that's only because my fiance and I had grown used to the tube in London and the metro in Paris, making the bus system in Siena feel a bit more of a hassle.

beautiful villa and gardens, the staff are very helpful and dining experience is fantastic

15 minute bus ride to Siena, however the service is very good.

The setting, grounds and vistas are outstanding and though it is slightly out of town, we easily took a bus into old Siena to see the sights. The restaurant food and service were also outstanding and the room very comfortable.

There were some stairs up to a loft/bedroom and the bathroom is on the lower floor. It was no problem for us but could be for others. Getting out of Siena by car is tricky - I would advise that you have a GPS on hand and also take note of rush hour traffic in the morning.
