The bedrooms are split between the second floor and in the attic with views of Siena. On July 2nd and on August 16th every year the widely celebrated 'Palio' is held in Siena. ***CANCELLATIONS HAVE TO BE MADE 48 HOURS IN ADVANCE OF ARRIVAL*** You will enjoy, please visit us and groups are especially welcome.

The rate for 24 hour internet access is quite good value, however it still should not be advertised as free when this is not the case. The bathroom configuration is not particularly comfortable or practical. A shower will result in a very wet bathroom. Location was excellent and the staff were friendly and very helpful.close

It was a fantastic location, literally moments away from the main piazza, Il Campo. We were happy with the facilities, and the staff were friendly and helpful. We hope to return to Siena and Albergo La Perla.

Goods: helpful staff, excellent central location. Room was clean, basic, and air-conditioned. Bads: Our room had only a small window looking out to another window. Bathroom shower curtain needs to be longer to avoid flooding the rest of the bathroom.

Was staying in a triple room that was pretty cramped. But no other complaints, it was well appointed. Very central to Siena, but a little noisy at night if you've got a room that faces out onto the piazza, as people tend to gather there a bit. There staff were mostly very helpful.

Extremely central location literally only a few steps away from Piazza del Campo. The hotel is located in an old building overlooking a nice small square. Our room was quite small, but clean and otherwise comfortable. If you want to stay right in the heart of the old town, this is the place to go!
