We stayed 2 nights and really enjoyed the beautiful setting of the property. The grounds, terrace, and pool area were absolutely lovely and made it feel like a peaceful escape just outside the city. The staff were warm and welcoming throughout our stay, and breakfast each morning was very good. We stayed in one of the loft rooms, which was spacious and unique. The only downside for me was a fairly strong air freshener scent in the room, which I personally didn’t love. Overall though, we had a very enjoyable stay.

We loved staying here and the staff was amazing. Unfortunately the weather didn't allow us to enjoy being outside in their gorgeous gardens much but we did have some spectacular views of Siena when we did.

We didn't realize when we booked how far from city centre we would be, but the good thing was that the bus picked us up at the bottom of the driveway and for 1.70 each took us to the city centre .

Also, even though the loft in our unit was beautiful, i didn't expect that the washroom would be downstairs which wasn't so convenient in the middle of the night.

Breakfast buffet was great and cappuccino and café latte made for us upon request, was very delicious

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!

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.

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.

It really is an extraordinary place. Amazing building, high ceilings. Elegant, top service. My wife loved it and we rather thought it was worth the money in spite of a couple minor points. The bath/shower knob did not engage fully to shower mode, so the water ran heavy through the tub spout during showers. But the pressure was still good at the shower. This was complicated by slow drains (both in the shower and also the sink). We stayed 3 nights but no repair was forthcoming (hard to get a plumber I guess). The shower was in the tub which is a tight squeeze. These places use an old dungeon key for room entry...no security risk I think, but it would be nice to upgrade to electronic card access? We booked understanding that there was air conditioning but there was none, or not functioning...consulted staff. The weather was temperate so not a problem but, travelling through Italy can be sticky and we like to dry out at the end of the day. Even with all this, the place is extraordinary and it was a fine place for the money. Also I wanted to get some laundry done as we travelled for weeks, but thee seemed no way to get it done. The pool is nice but in this season alot of flies were in the pool. The staff and service and food are top notch. The place is on a road that has the usual Italian motorbikes zipping up the road. But at night it is quiet. Beautiful property gardens. There was no shuttle to town, but the buses stop right at the property. We drove.

We had a great 5 night stay at the Villa Scacciapensieri. The room was cozy and very comfortable. We loved the outside of the facility, it was beautiful, flowers, lemon trees, beautiful landscape. The staff were good, the staff who worked breakfast were amazing! The front desk seemed a bit stressed out. We rented the bikes which was a blast! Our minor complaint, they refused to uncork a bottle of wine we planned to drink in our room. They gave us a beer opener, but not wine.
The facility offers very little, which was what we were looking for, just FYI if you want extras

Worst hotel experience EVER

The Worst Stay Ever !! This hotel management team will tell you it’s illegal for them to heat the rooms more than twice a day for short periods ….this is fraudulent behaviour. We checked into the hotel - premium room and upon entering the room it was dark, damp and very cold. We asked for the heating to be turned on and was told this was not possible because of local government rules on heating times. Given the condition of the room it’s damp state and temperature I would not ask my pet dog to stay there. This is NOT a 4 star hotel and does not justify all of the positive ratings. - if you look at those - most were pre covid after which I am told the hotel went into administration and emerged in a poor state - no refurb and no investment. We were moved to another room , however this was a mezzanine up steep stairs with no handrail - joke. I’m a very regular traveller and stay in hotels at least 80/100 nights per year - this was the worst in terms of description and mid match to reality. We asked for a refund and were refused. After some further complaint to Hotels.com they did assist - but I would suggest that you PASS on this hotel AT ANY COST. - you have been warned. This is at best a poor 2 star premises and only stay here if you like to be cold and damp

This was a vacation my husband and I had been planning for several years......traveling across Italy. Villa Scacciapensieri was one of our stops. It is a true gem. The staff went above and beyond to ensure our stay was perfect. From giving suggestions for restaurants (Enzo's and La Taverna di San Guiseppe) to unique wineries to visit...every suggestion was better than the last. The room was clean and spacious. The grounds were well maintained and picturesque. We would finish our days in the lounge area with a glass of wine and music (and it did not matter when your day ended as the bar was open 24 hours)! Do not pass this place up. It will definitely add to your experience.

Picturesque Villa

Sweeping views of the countryside, a crackling fireplace in the lobby and large spacious historic rooms. This hotel is everything I imagined it would be in Tuscany. The service was top-notch. A delicious breakfast of local meats cheeses and made to order eggs were served. The Villa is set only five minutes by taxi from the train station in the historic downtown. It is far enough away from the hustle and bustle to enjoy the beauty of what’s around. You can take a taxi from the Villa into town that only takes five minutes or you can take a local bus that picks up and drops off right at the end of the driveway of the Villa. The hotel also offers bicycles to use for free. .
I look forward to return with my friends so we can enjoy all of the other cities around see Siena for a girls vacation.

The hotel restaurant was great (especially when we arrived late evening the first night) but for a more casual setting there is a nice restaurant a few minutes walk down the road at the campground which our 7 y.o. really enjoyed. The hotel is a 10 minute drive from the city centre but its fine if you plan for this (bus/taxi). We had a great stay here and would highly recommend it.

What a lovely spot -- truly beautiful on the top of a hill in the surroundings of Siena. There is a pool and several terraces/gardens where you can sit and read. Restaurant staff truly Old-World gracious and accommodating. You'll have to take the bus or drive to get into Siena proper but for us this was OK as we had a car. The breakfast is served outside in the garden, weather permitting, and it was really delightful and delicious. Would love to come back here sometime!

Beautiful resort, a bit out of town but was so nice to be away from hustle and bustle of the big cities. Staff was very helpful, helped get us drivers, taxis and gave us helpful information about the town.

Charming hotel with excellent views but old

Very charming hotel, excellent staff (especially the waiters), great food in the restaurant, very nice views, big spacious and pretty rooms. On the other hand, housekeeping did not clean very well and towels had a strange sour smell. Bathrooms are old and need an update. Overall a good experience, but it would be great if they updated the bathrooms

This was a last minute reservation while making a detour traveling through Italy. Thank goodness for spontaneity. This is a beautiful family owned hotel less than 10 minutes from Siena. The villa itself and the view are worth it. The accomodations are excellent, but the owners and staff make this hotel top notch. I cannot review the full restaurant, because we only partook of a delicious breakfast which was continental, of course, but eggs cooked to order were available.
If I ever have the pleasure of traveling in Italy again, I will certainly make this stop, but for more than one night.

Old world charm, modern amenities

This reminded me of the hotels we stayed in 50 years ago in Europe. It has an old world charm but updated amenities and was spotlessly clean. The service was excellent, from the front desk to the maître d’ and servers. It’s off the beaten path but the historic parts of Siena are easily accessed and the views were lovely.
