After visiting the fast paced Roma, Pisa and Florence we arrived at the Villa Scacciapensieri. We'd read great reviews but the reviews understated just how great this island of calm. From check in to check out the staff was courteous, helpful and just about like family. The owners checked us, allowed us to see our rooms to approve the accommodations... More

We stayed here for four nights last July and we thoroughly enjoyed every minute of our time there. The hotel is slightly outside of Siena, but there's a bus stop at the hotel gate that makes visiting the town centre easypeasy. We were looking for a place that had a nice pool and provided easy access to the Tuscan countryside... More

Villa Scacciapensieri was by far the best hotel we stayed at in Italy. We absolutely fell in love with the place. All the staff were very nice and friendly (one lady at the front desk was a little snobby, but she was still helpful). We were on our honeymoon, and this hotel was certainly the most memorable. We don’t know... More

We enjoyed our short stay at the villa. The location near Sienna is perfect, the gardens are serene and beautiful. Breakfast and service impeccable. The room was very clean, although we requested the bed to be re-done with extra padding since the mattresses were extremely hard. In Italy, few hotels have decent mattresses, they'll ruin your back! Another thing the... More

Lovely hotel (ask to stay in the main house or in the house that overlooks the olive grove) and fantastic staff. Very helpful. Room was actually a suite and was very comfortable. The breakfast was fantastic. (included) The only thing I wish was that it was closer to town, so we didn't have to drive to Siena, and that I... More

We stayed recently for a few days and found the hotel comfortable with very attentive staff. The breakfast is wonderful and one of the best in Italy without having to go ala Carte. The hotel is over rated based on the prices they charge for their rooms with "Shower Curtains" in the bathrooms. Be careful in the bar as they... More

My friends and I had a wonderful time at the Villa S. We are always looking for the finer 5 star establishments but this was quite lovely in the overall presentation! Nice sheets, nice towels and everyone is especially accommodating to your needs. It is really nice coming back after a long day of touring or walking Siena all day... More

We enjoyed our 5 nights at the Villa Scacciapensieri. The room was very comfortable, and the hotel grounds great for relaxing and enjoying the scenery and weather. It was also fairly easy to get into the old town of Siena. The staff were helpful as far as providing information, and the breakfasts quite good.

I remember booking this hotel because of the long list of kings and queens who stayed there. During hot summer days, the royalty sougt higher grounds for view and breeze. Any place with history behind it astonishes me. It is one of the most tranquil and serene places I have ever been to.

A wonderful 2 night stay at this villa outside of Siena. From the gentleman who took our luggage to our room to our favorite server (Andre; who has worked their 26 years), it was fabulous and special. Our room and bath was sizeable, clean and very well appointed. Our room had a small balcony and windows on 2 walls. Had... More
