Elizabeth, Sara were fantastic at the front desk and advice throughout the Villa. Very professional and helpful. Ruth and Roger did an excellent job of taking care of us and always being available.

This hotel is a total scam. They state that no outside food or drinks are allowed on the premises. One night, staff saw us bringing a pizza back to our room but said nothing at the time. The next morning, they suddenly demanded a €50 fine. We tried to reason with them, but they insisted on charging my credit card anyway. This was an unfair dispute and an unreasonable charge. Luckily, my credit card company eventually reversed the €50 charge. Please think twice before booking this hotel.

Stayed in this villa for a couple of nights. It’s a great option if you’re looking to escape the hustle and bustle of the city center. The location is lovely, with birds chirping in the background. The rooms were small, but they had all the necessary amenities for travelers. I had dinner and breakfast once each day. While the food was sufficient, I think it would be better to have more options given the 4-star rating of the property. The staff members were helpful and friendly.

I'll start off by saying all the staff- only a handfull on site ,were great but seemed to be doing multiple roles ie very understaffed. No sign of a manger at all during our 3 day stay and staff seemed to be operating under "pressure" Perhaps at the height of the summer I may have had a different experience as the outside terraces etc were all shutdown and that's where you'd want to be rather than inside the hotel.... This is a tired old property that hasn't been updated in many many years. Old soiled carpets, stained furniture, mismatched odd furniture just placed around the building. A constant smell of stale cigerette smoke especialy in the lobby and stairwell to the rooms. Bedroom and bathroom linens were beyond old and worn. Our room was large and sparsely furnished with an onsuite that had a handheld shower in a precariously narrow tub which nessesitated some acrobatics to shower successfully. I see why they have a payment in full upfront with policy, as we would have and I witnessed another couple try to shorten their stay but recieve no refund.. Overall, a very dissapointing stay for such a beautiful city. Surprised and dissapointed that Expedia promote it so highly ... Think "Faulty Towers", Siena style ... if you get the reference, you know what i mean!

Stunning property. Big room, clean. Liked breakfast. Had dinner one evening. Not really worth the cost. Found it very noisy, was hoping for a peaceful location. First a dog barking then frequent garden machinery noise probably a leaf blower/ vacuum. Obviously pride in the gardens. Staff nice in restaurant. Most reception helpful. Checking out don't think asked if enjoyed

Beautiful boutique hotel outside of Siena city. We stayed in the deluxe room and it was perfect. There is no shuttle but a bus stops right outside the hotel- we found this wasn’t very dependable and relied on taxis at times (€14 each way) While the hotel is close to the city, it’s not walkable, so take that into consideration. Breakfast was a typical continental, my only complaint was the time it took to get the hot food to the table, it was either forgotten or took a very long time. The staff serving were excellent but 1 server for a full breakfast room isn’t adequate. The hotel grounds are beautiful.

Lovely traditional hotel, great pool and good food. I’ve had better breakfasts, but more than adequate to get you started in a morning.

Garden around this property is beautiful and there is little swimming pool which was excellent. Rooms are a bit outdated, but they serve delicious Italian breakfast.

Here's an elegant English translation of your text, incorporating your points into a cohesive narrative:  Nestled just outside the enchanting city of Siena, Villa Scacciapensieri Boutique Hotel stands out as an excellent choice, whether you're traveling solo or with family. This charming villa truly shines if you resonate with the following sentiments: First, after a day of bustling activity, you yearn for a clean, tranquil retreat away from the city center's clamor. Second, you appreciate rooms that, while not ultra-modern, offer ample space, full functionality, and impeccable cleanliness. Third, recognizing the notorious parking difficulties in Siena's historic heart, you'll delight in the convenient and affordable public transport links right outside the hotel's gate – a benefit I've personally experienced and can attest to. Finally, should you wish to sidestep the pitfalls of tourist-trap restaurants while still savoring authentic Tuscan cuisine and wine, the hotel's own restaurant is an absolute gem. Indeed, that evening, to toast my discerning choice, I indulged in a fine bottle of local wine.

Most relaxing Tuscany venue and area with a refreshing pool and attentive staff. On site breakfast delicious with a nice assortment of fruit and pastries. The full bar available 24 hrs . Only two notes : In room coffee would be preferred and is not available. Only USB in the rooms for charging and adapters only worked in the bathroom; the other outlets could not accommodate EU plugs or phone chargers .
