"Hotel Athena was a great property in Siena right inside the town walls. Very convenient as we had a rental car and did day trips throughout Tuscany. Breakfast buffet was included and great selection and quality of food. Would definitely stay here again and recommend to others."

"Absolutely lovely hotel. Best one we stayed at in Italy - in retrospect, we wish we booked to stay here a second night. The location is quiet and isolated so stars are visible at night, plenty of parking, and breakfast is worth the 20 EURS, best breakfast options we had during our stay. Highly recommend, 10/10."

Great boutique hotel in the middle of Tuscany. Wonderful views. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. We really loved the complimentary wine tasting at their nearby winery! We only wish their rooftop deck would’ve been open for even better views. The hotel and winery are family owned and it’s very clear that they value every guest!

The room was spacious and the bathroom especially had a large shower. When we arrived a sign on the door directed us to the coffee shop next-door, and a nice young lady took us upstairs to our room. She explained that we could also receive a free breakfast the next morning at the coffee shop, which consisted of coffee, juice, and a good pastry– nice treat. You may find the stairs to be a challenge
if you are not on a lower level since there is no elevator.

What an amazing surprise! The town had so much history that I even called my daughter and sent her pics to see if we could shoot a video/movie there. The owners were an amazing couple who did everything they could to make us feel welcome. The dining experience was very high end with a menu that would make any foodie truly happy. They make everything on the premises, from bread to pasta to deserts. I truly recommend it. Only issue was that we reserved late on the app and the hotel did not get...

This hotel was great. The breakfast was awesome. The location was perfect for walking the city as well as having great access to the train station. I also noticed a lot of the walking tours began in the area so it was convenient. Food choices everywhere and many many convenient stores nearby. The staff was great!

Fantastic place to stay. Within 10-15 minutes of the first gate of the city. Very excellent restaurant on site and friendly staff. Rooms were clean and spacious, and quiet at night. If you need the front desk early on the weekend, make sure to talk to them the night before.

The quaintness of staying on a working farm in Umbria made the stay memorable. The accommodations were simple yet perfect. The owner and his family were very friendly, helpful and welcoming. Dinner was fantastic and very reasonable. The experience was wonderful and I would recommend it for those that want to experience Umbrian life.

I was surprised about the hotel. My first experience in a hostel but would say that no difference to a hotel. Excellent compared to price. I would recommend and stay again

Excellent place to stay.
Staffs are friendly and they even speak good English. They go out of their way to help and guide you. The place was clean and well kept.
Location of the property excellent - right opposite to the station . That has easy access to main Florence station.

From the moment of booking, Silvia reached out to me & ensured she would be there by the time of my arrival, to give me a tour and make sure I knew the essentials, and if I needed breakfast where to leave, the menu the night before. She made us feel very welcomed. The room was spacious, clean and perfect for our family and most importantly it had air conditioner, bathroom and shower small, clean and cute. Close to Firenze S.M.N. Terminal station, and near by all local transit transportation,...
