Residenza alla Lizza

The room was on the top floor of a beautiful old building, situated on the main walking route into the historic centre. Luckily there was a lift adjacent to the apartment, so getting luggage up there wasn’t a problem. Our room was beautifully styled with Italian antique furniture and we also had access to a communal lounge which was styled in the same manor. Everything was sparklingly clean. The location was perfect for sightseeing and we had a pleasant couple of days.

Car parking in Siena is difficult. The nearest car park for the apartment is Fortezza. We drove around a few times before finally finding a space. It’s also expensive- 44 euros for one and a half days. The room doesn’t have air conditioning so it would be uncomfortable in high season. As it was the end of September, we managed ok with the fan, although it was quite noisy. As previous reviews have mentioned, there is no fridge and no possibility for making tea and coffee which really lets the place down.

Such a romantic and beautiful room! Amazing location in the heart of historic Siena. The room is large, comfortable, and clean, and has so many elegant touches. Great value.

Check in was complicated as I hadn't received check-in instructions when we arrived and we were quite tired from travel.

It provided a beautiful historic and elegant feel to my trip. The bed, the furniture, the light fittings. It was also a good location, close to the train station and close to explore the rest of Siena. I also felt safe.

No air conditioning, however a fan is provided and in the evenings it was cool and you can air the room out. This wouldn’t deter me from staying again at this time of year. The pillows were a bit thin for my liking, however on request the host provided me an additional pillow which improved my sleep.

Central location. Historic building

No a/c.

Beautiful room, lovely big windows to help cool the room down. Fan in the room to compensate for no air con. Lovely owner who was very accommodating and friendly. It's situated very close to the main bus stop which was helpful for day trips. It's a little walk from the train station, about twenty minutes, but quite a straight route through the shopping centre opposite the train station and through the main streets of Siena.

Very nice decorated house, it was like a dream, very toscanic… loved it as furniture and design

No coffee tea fridge facilities

Two nights in Siena as a rest day on the Via Francigena. Location was excellent, almost in the centre of the city. The small rooms off the large living area allowed a little extra comfort.

It was fairly expensive, and the check-in experience was difficult as none of us had WhatsApp.

No breakfast, but we had four bedrooms with a common area on the same floor. It’s a beautiful facility with private bath in each bedroom. The windows overlook the piazza and it’s very close proximity to shopping, Piazza del Campo and the Duomo! We love it there!

No breakfast, but the price is right!

location cannot be bettered - within the old walls yet close to the bus and train stations. The building is a wonderful part of sienese history with great views over the city roofscape and distant tuscan hills

There was a communal lounge serving maybe five apartments but neither it nor our room had a fridge, tea & coffee making, iron & ironing board, washing machine or any amenities that travellers expect coming to an apartment
