Hotel Italia

A really affordable stay that included a breakfast that I would gladly be happy to wake up to every day! Great variety of foods, snacks and drinks. The location is just a short walk away from the old town and an elevator up/down makes it easy to reach from the bus/train terminal!

Great location 2 minutes from the top of the escalators from the train station , and from the bus stop to/from San Gimignano. Short walk to the old city walls. Very friendly staff. Excellent breakfast. Comfortable bar room with sofas. Comfy bed but very thin pillows. Great shower. We extended our stay by an extra night!

The localization of the hotel is superb - it is less a 5-minute walk distant from the main train/bus station (the only thing you have to know is that you must reach level 2 of the shopping gallery located in the train station area and then choose stairs or an escalator) - I guess a taxi journey would take a bit longer. It is also close to Camollia Antiporte where your journey to the medieval Siena may start. A bus stop for local and intercity (e.g. San Gimignano or Florence) buses is also close. Although the street may be a bit noisy, we almost did not hear it (our room was located in a side building). The room was quite comfortable for 4 people and three suitcases, although, truly speaking, we did not spend too much in it. The breakfast is served in a main buidling and it is delicious - especially the cakes and croissants. I was personally fond of orange juice - perfectly balanced between being sweet and sour. The staff was very kind and really helpful. And last but not the least - there is a chance to use a swimming pool located in another hotel - a valuable option in summer - although we did not use it (5 days is not too much time). I do sincerely recommend.

The room was spacious, the bathroom had a tub (!), and the double bed comfortable. Breakfast was generous and yummy. Short walk from the escalators in the mall across the train station, leading to the historic part of the city; no trouble to find at all. All the sites are about a 20-minute walk away, easy and pleasant in the cold weather. Also, they gave me a recommendation for lunch in the city that was not too touristy and delicious, La Taverna del Capitano. There was a short power outage in the middle of the night ONLY IN MY ROOM, however, which I had to go down to reception to report, since I had my gadgets charging; probably a blown fuse? Otherwise, I would stay here again in a heartbeat; one night was certainly not enough.

The breakfast was wonderful, lots of selection and very tasty. Parking was extra and tight but an easy entry off the main road and it was secure inside a gate. We did have to call to be let out once. Easy to get from the train, to Il Campo, and out of town from this location. The staff was helpful with calling for our taxi.
