Nice little spot outside of town

Great little place that is quiet and relaxed but close to town. Nice location with easy, free parking. Short bus up the hill into town. There is a restaurant and bar on site which is nice. Rooms were great and staff nice.

You will need to take a bus to Siena’s walled area. Room is clean but basic. Breakfast is fine too and the nightly rate was incredibly reasonable. Suspect a livelier crowd in the summer but we are here in November

In Siena easy to stay outside the walled city and take the bus in. This little b&b is a gem. Not expensive- 10 minute bus ride into the city. Includes breakfast which has fruit, pastries, yogurt, and cereal plus any style of coffee you want or tea - whatever. Downstairs is a sweet bar and small restaurant. Food is delicious- typical Tuscan. Lots of desserts

The B&B was average. Property owner was friendly and helpful. Room service did not replenish supplies such as toilet paper and we were forced to rummage through the facility for toilet paper but no luck. Refrigerator does not work. 41°54'7.687"N, 12°29'8.798"E

Relax in Siena

We had a very comfortable 6 days here. Gabrielle and Antoniette were happy to help with any request. It's has a relaxing, quiet environment. Good daily breakfast, but with little variation. Thanks for a great stay!

Great value B & B close to Siena

A short bus ride away from the centre of Siena, with buses running every 15mins. My room was spacious, clean and comfortable and the staff were fantastic, even dropping me off at the bus station on my last morning! Thanks for making my stay so enjoyable.

Wonderful stay. The family who owns the hotel are wonderful, very nice and helpful. Breakfast was wonderful and we ate it outside in a lovely garden. Its located down the hill from Siena, there is good bus service up to the town the bus stop is close to the hotel and runs frequently. The location worked for us as we had a car and were able to park at the hotel and drive around exploring Chianti and Tuscany.

Loved this place!

Had the perfect stay. Very quiet place. Nice room. Great staff. Bus stop down the hill to take you the city center which is a few minutes away. Bus comes every 15 minutes, so, very easy! Bus across the street takes you to train station. Breakfast room is very good, or you can sit outside and enjoy the view of the Siena countryside. I would stay here again in a second.

First rate B&B.

Stayed for 2 nights. Greeting was superbe. Our room was next to a busy road but due to curtains and shutters on the windows, we were oblivious to the out side world. Excellent family run accommodation, with a pride taken in every aspect.

Siena special surprise

We stayed at this B&B for only one night but let me say, I wish I could have stayed another night just to enjoy the room and the amenities . Great B&B and the associated bar/restaurant were good as well.

Close to city center

Plan to take the bus which runs frequently very closeby or have a car to get into Siena center from Hotel Tufi. Breakfast offers several choices. Cute bar just below the hotel. Staff is friendly and helpful. Not fancy here but good value for the cost. Also offers fast reliable internet service.

Very nice small hotel

My wife and I enjoyed our stay and found our room comfortable. The location of this hotel is not conducive to walking to Siena. You'll definitely need a car or you can take the bus (we didn't try this as we had our own car). The Internet was excellent and easy to log on to. The bathroom was spotless and had a decent shower. The surrounding neighborhood overlooks a highway and is nothing to write home about, but the hotel is very comfortable and the staff was more than helpful with information about the hotel and the area. For the price, we'd recommend it.

Very nice place for visiting Siena

The hotel is located about a mile outside one of Siena gates, and convenient to Siena with bus service or a walk if one is so inclined. We stayed only one night, but everything was great, the hotel manager was very friendly and provided recommendations for good local restaurants. The room is comfortable and clean.

Conveniently close to freeways and Siena gate

Staff was very accommodating. Very nice parking by the house. Rather noisy location as it is close to freeways. Noise was not an issue in the room. Room was nice and comfortable, tall ceiling, sliding door to garden. Shower very small, but not unusual for Europe. Nice garden where we had breakfast. Siena is wonderful and a very short drive away. There is a bus stop within walking distance,too.

Location is great to visit Siena

What else you can ask for? The reception staff was very welcoming, explaining all about the B&B facilities, wifi, check-in/out times and very helpful when talking about what to visit in Sienna and its surrounds. We stayed in a triple room (two single and sofabed), room spacious. The bathroom was reasonbly sized and very clean (well, the whole establishment was spotless!). There is a garden where you can have your breakfast (complimentary). The B&B is on the same road where the carpark is (as you cannot drive into Siena). Highly recommend!
