Hotel Vico Alto  

Perched on the quiet hill of Vico Alto, this hotel looks out over Siena's red-tiled skyline. It's about 800 m from the bus and train stations and roughly 3 km from the historic core — a 10-minute drive to Piazza del Campo and Siena Cathedral. Pet-friendly and family-friendly, it also makes a handy base for day trips to Chianti, San Gimignano, Pienza and Montalcino.

Recently refurbished and quietly stylish, the property has 46–47 individually furnished rooms designed for comfort. Rooms include minibars, flat-screen TVs and desks; bathrooms feature showers, bidets and complimentary toiletries. Expect a 24-hour reception, multilingual staff, an elevator and sheltered gardens that frame the city views.

Lounge bar, sheltered gardens and a terrace offer chill spots to soak up the panorama. On-site parking and airport transfer services make arrivals easy, while complimentary Wi‑Fi and an internet point keep you connected. There’s event space for banquets and ceremonies, plus assigned smoking zones for convenience.

A dedicated computer station and complimentary wireless internet are available throughout the property. The hotel offers about 100 m² (1,076 sq ft) of conference and meeting space for groups and events.

The on-site restaurant serves Italian and Tuscan specialties, with buffet breakfast served daily from 7:30–10:30 (for a fee). Grab coffee at the hotel café or stroll four minutes to La Veranda for Tuscan dishes under a vine pergola. Finish the evening with a drink in the bar/lounge.
