Hotel Executive

We left Florence and drove here via San Gimignano which is very doable en route to Siena. The property is outside the historic centre which suited our needs with the car and driving is restricted in old town of Siena. There was a bus stop right outside the hotel with many options. We purchased the tickets from reception. Make sure to validate them on boarding the bus. We saw regular ticket inspections with people fined on the spot for violations. We taxied back to the hotel at night. The fares were reasonable. The hotel itself is a little dated but very comfortable. Our room had a little terrace which I’m sure is nice in the summer. Our air conditioning wasn’t working which may have been down to time of year (Oct) but would have liked it none the less as it was still warm. Staff were pleasant and Helpful. Siena itself is beautiful. We were so glad to have visited. More popular restaurants were booked out so try to book them in advance. We were also able to do a day trip by car from our hotel to Montepulciano Val d’Orcia and Montalcino with it’s beautiful walled villages and magical scenery en route.

A little further out of the historical centre than we realised. It worked out fine though with public transport.
