B&B I Tetti di Siena

It’s 1 am on our third night and I still can’t fall asleep thanks to people sitting at the courtyard table and talking. It was the same the previous two nights and I’m now exhausted from the heat and sleep deprivation. Not everyone can sleep with earplugs so be aware. In addition to that there were lots of men congregating in the courtyard each evening - swapping T-shirts, signing them and talking loudly. There was even some sort of a parade around midnight right along the B&B street. Walls must be very thin as I could hear all neighbours. Otherwise the hotel location is good as it’s very close to the centre and the place is clean. Large bathroom, modest furniture, friendly receptionist and average breakfast. Perhaps the rooms facing the back of the hotel are better but I won’t recommend those facing the entrance.

Stayed here for two nights in May. Very central location. Clean and spacious rooms. Well equipped ie hair drier, coffee machine, TV. Plenty of wardrobe space. Only downside was lighting was inadequate in the bedroom although ok in bathroom. And heated towel rail wouldn't warm up. Communal area with nice sofa etc was a lovely touch.

The accommodation is right on the edge of Siena’s historic city center, short walks away from the famous square, Piazza del Campo and the amazing Duomo. Worth spending a bit more on a superior room as it offers beautiful views of the old town and it comes with much needed coffee machine. No breakfast is currently offered due to Covid restrictions so an early morning coffee in the room is a definite bonus. The staff was super helpful with directions on how to enter the historic center as tourists are not allowed to enter through any of the many gates, and then directing us to the nearest parking lot.
