About this property
Family apartment with magical view on the old city, balcony, wifi & parking
The tasteful furnishings in our family apartment reflect the love and care we have put into it and clearly distinguish these accommodations from typical vacation rentals that only offer the bare necessities. The apartment is located in a quiet residential area close to San Domenico, just a 10-minute stroll from the center of town (with the bus in front of the house you can reach the pedestrian zone in three minutes without walking uphill...). The house is built on a slope: The apartment is actually on the 3rd floor but it is half a floor below the main entrance (about 15 steps down the stairs without elevator).
All of the rooms feature antique furnishings. Both of the generously sized bedrooms have hardwood parquet floors with a fishbone design, while the yellow marble flooring in the living room creates a unique, colorful accent. The two baths, both with windows, have been completely renovated and feature luxurious amenities. Thank to the brand new water heater (installed 2019 December) the warm water supply is now much better than the years before. Water pressure and temperature are ideal.
The kitchen provides virtually every convenience you could think of, including a dishwasher, washing machine, microwave oven, refrigerator, oven and of course a gas stove.
The spacious living room offers a magnificent view of the cathedral hill that simply cannot be found anywhere else. On the balcony you'll find a bistro table and two chairs inviting you to enjoy sunset with an aperitiv or a good wine glas.
All balconies offer sun awnings to protect you against heat and sunlight at summer.
Parking is available in the neighborhood. Please consider that we don't have a privat parking slot, so that you cannot book a place for your car.
IMPORTANT: A brand new portable air conditioner "PINGUINO DE LONGHI" is available to cool down the master bedroom or the living room. Both sleeping rooms are equipped with modern fans.
Free WI-FI (1000 Mbit fibreglass)!

We loved our stay here. It was a short walk to historic center and the views were amazing from all the balconies. Plenty of room to be comfy!Alessandra responded to emails promptly!It was nice having a washer as it was midway through our “carry on” vacation!

Thank you so muche Michelle! It was a pleasure to host you and we hope to welcome you again in the future! Ciao Alessandra
We had a fabulous stay in Siena. The apartment was perfect for what we needed, we could cook should we want to. Close to the old town either by short walk or bus stop 3 minute walk away- worked well for us. The actual view from balcony is so much better than in picture. Loved our stay, thank you for having us
The apartment gave us a truly immersive experience in Siena. It takes you back in time while offering all modern amenities. Our host, Alessandra, was very responsive, informative and flexible. Everything about this apartment is stellar. The view from the balconies is spectacular day and night. Be prepared to walk in Siena…lots…up and down hills.

Dear Susan, thank you for you nice review. Yes, Siena is a city for hikers and walkers, beeing built on three hills... I like it, because I really get fit, when I'm in Siena! Ciao!
We thoroughly enjoyed staying here! It was a beautiful and clean property with a great location. Everyone at the property was super accommodating and was helpful in getting checked in and acclimated to Siena. Would recommend to others and hope to stay there again!

Perfect, walkable location to get to restaurants and the city center. The home is beautiful, comfortable and had everything we needed for our stay. Communication with our host was excellent. We highly recommend this property and would stay again if visiting Sienna in the future.

Thank you so much Michelle! So come again, we'll be happy to welcome you! Ciao Alessandra
This property was great for my wife, me and two of our friends. The location was a short walk into the old part of Siena. The view from the balcony was beautiful - so much so that we occasionally opted to get take-away, brought it back to the apartment and sat on the balcony sipping wine, eating great pizza while we watched the old city turn golden as the sun set behind us.I can't say enough about how helpful Alessandra was before and during our stay. She was always very quick to respond and was very accommodating.

Thank you Kevin, you choose my favorite part: I know the view since over 50 years, it was the home of my grandparents... and still can't get enough. I sit there and drink a coffee in the morning or a glass wine in the evening, and I enjoy. Thank you for visiting us, you were perfect guests! Ciao Alessandra
This was our last city to visit on our tour of Italy, and these wonderful accommodations top off our trip. Clean and very large rooms to relax and take in the views of this Medieval City.

Caro James, cara Christel,
grazie per la vostra bella recensione. Purtroppo non posso dire la stessa cosa della mia recensione, in quanto voi personalmente siete persone molto carine, ma avete lasciato la casa in uno stato catastrofico. La mia donna, Laura, si è messa a piangere quando ha visto gli asciugamani sporchissimi in fondo alla vasca tutti bagnati, il lavello della cucina davvero lurido e tutto il resto che non sto a descrivere. Per questo motivo chiederò un rimborso per pulizie intensive. Mi dispiace, ma questa è casa mia, e non un albergo, e sentire che è stata lasciata così in malo stato mi dispiace personalmente. Inoltre con il phon avete rischiato l'incendio. Quando ho visto la foto che mi ha mandato Laura mi è venuto uno shock, come potete lasciare un phon dentro una scarpa e lasciarlo surriscaldare in quel modo? è vero che mi avete lasciato un piccolo importo per ricomprarlo, ma davvero avete rischiato di incendiarmi la casa, una cosa mai vista prima... Peccato. Vi auguro comunque un buon rientro a casa. Alessandra
Fantastic location. Comfortable, spacious and gorgeous property!
I loved staying at this property. The home was immaculate, very comfortable and stunningly decorated! The property manager is a gem to communicate with and everything from laundry, kitchen and bathroom essentials were available. I would highly recommend this home to anyone and I am very likely to be a return client.

Thank you Robin, it was a big pleasure to host you and your daughter. Punctual, easy to communicate with, friendly, simply great guests! It would be great to host you again! Have a nice trip and come back soon to Siena...
This is an amazing getaway location. The apartment feels like a museum with how beautifully appointed it is. The views of Siena from the apartment were spectacular. It was a magical place. The apartment sits at the base of the Siena historic district. The view of Siena at night was romantic and breathtaking. It is not only centrally located to Siena itself, but made for a perfectly centralized base for touring Tuscany. The food in Siena is so amazing you can eat there for a week and have superb meals each night. Additionally, Alessandra was so helpful and delightful. I would highly recommend this location.

About the host
Hosted by Alessandra Carboni
We are Italian citizen, but in our family we always loved travelling and having international experiences. They say home is where the heart is and our heart is in Siena, although we’ve never had the opportunity to live there. We enjoy travelling during the off-season and in regions that remain “unspoiled” by mass tourism. We love Portugal, for example, but not necessarily the tourist areas of Algarve in the summer. Our main priority as a host is to ensure that our guests always feel right at home and view our apartment as their own. After all, this is more than just a vacation rental; this is our family’s apartment, situated in one of the world’s most beautiful cities. This apartment is part of our life story.

The tasteful furnishings in our family apartment reflect the love and care we have put into it and clearly distinguish these accommodations from typical vacation rentals that only offer the bare necessities.

What makes this property unique
There is a bus stop in front of the building. You can take a bus to the train station or the pedestrian zone. You may park your car either in front of the building or in the parking area in front of the garages.
Would you like to learn Italian in Siena? We know the best schools and would be happy to offer you a few recommendations on how you can make the most of your stay here. The same goes for restaurants and city attractions. We know the area well from our own experience, so don’t hesitate to ask us if you have any questions. But there is one more reason to visit us: If you have always wanted to see the historic horse race on July 2 and August 16, we can arrange seats for you on request. Experience this exhilarating race from a balcony with a perfect view of the Piazza del Campo. These spots are normally not available, so be sure to take advantage of this extraordinary offer.
