Hotel Palazzo Ravizza

This is a lovely historic hotel with a gorgeous view and garden! The breakfast provided was very nice and the woman making the espresso & cappuccino’s was wonderful. We had a very large upgraded room which had a garden view & a view of the Tuscan hills beyond. The shower was very large by Italian standards. Every detail in this hotel was so well thought through. We highly recommend this hotel & would jump at the chance to stay again!

This hotel on the edge of central Siena is brilliantly situated, next to the city gate, but with great countryside views at the back. Our room was spacious and full of character, with great views and a good shower. There is a bar , from where drinks can be taken onto the lovely terrace - a great place to watch the sun go down! Breakfasts are good, though with more emphasis on sweet cakes and less on cheese & ham than in most places. It’s probably worth mentioning that there are a couple of quirks which didn’t overly worry me: guests are requested to clear their breakfast tables when they finish, rather than having staff clear, clean and reset them as in most places. And the lift is a charming antique that can only accommodate one instruction at a time!

Love this hotel! Parking was very straightforward (go to reception first). The walk to downtown is like 5 minutes. The room was spacious and bright. Our view was to the Cathedral, the other side of the hotel viewed Tuscan hills. The best, most underrated part was that our bathroom had a large mirror and a light over the mirror. I’ve been staying in 5 star hotels at vineyards all week and this is the first hotel to (finally!!!) have a well-lit bathroom.
