Best hotel in sienna!! Located in the center of main attractions, duomo is right in front of the hotel. Rooms are sound proof, clean, and modern. The breakfast was amazing, better than restaurants. Staff are wonderful, specially (Maria, I think she goes by Joi). All staff spoke fluent english. When I told them I am pregnant they went above and beyond to get me reservations at the best restaurants in town to ensure I get pregnancy safe food. They helped with our parking and valet situation. The room was clean, very cozy and cute. Building is historic and wonderful but the rooms are also fully renovated and modern. Very comfortable stay. I'd give them 10 stars if I could. Will 100% stay here again next time I visit.

Really can't say enough positive things about our stay. Husband and I ended a two week Italy tour in Siena and stayed 2 nights here. Communication leading up to and including check in was fantastic. We were warmly greeted upon our arrival and met a helpful smiling face at every turn during our stay. Our room was perfect! Clean, modern including a comfy bed and varying density of pillows. Our room had a private terrace overlooking the city and claw foot tub. We decided to have a room picnic including local meats and cheeses with a bottle of wine to unwind from the days travel. Breakfast was fantastic. Fresh fruit, granola, pastries and so much more. On the way out for our room snacks we were invited into the wine cellar and enjoyed a quick history lesson for the building and immediate area. What a great experience, highly recommend you come for a stay!

Lovely staff and great location, right behind the duomo which our room overlooked. Our room was quite large and comfortable and the air conditioning was a godsend in the 35+ degree heat! Everything is within walking distance and breakfast is served in the restaurant just across from the residence. It was quite lovely to have a pastry in the shadow of the duomo.

Amazing place! Great location, the breakfast is a good selection buffet. The wine cellar is really cool to visit in the hotel and get some history. The only reason for 4 stars is no shower robes, and the weird double door system with different keys to get into the room, not necessarily a downside but just odd to me.

Response from the property

Dear rj, we’re so glad you appreciated the unique features of our historic residence, located in the heart of the historic district, and that you enjoyed our breakfast as well! We’ve already taken care of the complicated issue with the double doors—now there’s a convenient doorbell on the main door that works even at night—and the next step will be the bathrobes! Thank you so much for your suggestions, and see you soon!!

We stayed here in this lovely hotel in the centre of Siena in May 2026. We were in Siena for my daughter’s wedding which was held in the Palazzo Publico on the open air terrace. |The hotel could not have been located any better for us, just behind the Cathedral. The hotel itself is modern inside a very magical historic building. It is exceptionally clean and the staff are very friendly and helpful, booking taxis for us and even my son and family for their onward travel to Florence! We would thoroughly recommend anyone to stay in this hotel! 5/5 😁

Had an absolutely terrible experience at this hotel. Asked for them to arrange a taxi to take us to the train station after our stay. The taxi was late (or never showed up). We tried to race to the train station after waiting 30 min, but ended up missing our train. Note that taxis don’t go to the B&B directly. They drop off and pick up at a nearby location. Don’t trust the staff / taxis to coordinate effectively or show up on time. Also, if you plan to stay in the hotel, try and get a room that does not face the main square / street. There is a ton of noise at night.

Where can I eat near Il Battistero Siena Residenza d'Epoca?

For dining, the hotel's own Battistero Bistrot sits right in Piazza San Giovanni, opposite the Siena Baptistery and just steps from the cathedral. It serves traditional Tuscan dishes, artisanal products, and refined cuisine for lunch and dinner, with a great wine selection. The hotel also has a bar, cafe, and snack bar for lighter bites. Since you are in the historic center, you can easily walk to nearby restaurants and eateries around Piazza del Campo, which is a 2-minute walk away. The area is full of dining options, so you can explore and find a spot that suits your taste.
