For the 4 of us, we had a great view, very good breakfast, the staff were very pleasant and helpful. You are not paying 4 star rates so don't expect 4 star service. However since you are only paying one star rates but are getting 2.5 star value why would you stay anywhere else?

This hotel which is located in a former convent and is still part of St. Catherine’s church has the feel of something more akin to a youth hostel than a B&B. The hotel has about 40+ rooms, and many are occupied by students taking classes in Sienna. There is a sign in the lobby saying the hotel does not have... More

I stayed here at the end of March 2012 and fully enjoyed my stay. I requested a room with a view and got an amazing view of the city centre and Duomo. I received a very warm welcome and whenever I asked for recommendations for dinner they were very good, I also must mention Giorgio who was exceptionally welcoming and... More

The rooms were very, very basic - single beds,single pillow, single blanket... no hair drier, no mirror in the bedroom, no sound-proofing, rusty hinges, metal doors, more like cells than hotel bedrooms. The rooms were cleaned well, but the drains were decidedly smelly. The breakfast was sparse, the bread stale, the "fruit" juice defied any form of identification, and the... More

Stunning view & peaceful setting. A lovely spare kind of room - white plaster walls, terrazzo floor, high ceilings - clean and comfy. Nice breakfast room and breakfast buffet. A real steal for the price!! Will go back on next visit to Siena!!

When you book the Alma Domus, you need to decide what it is you are looking for for your stay in Siena. If you want a budget stay with a difference then this is the place for you. If you get a room with a view, savour it, as the location is really wonderful. If you like the idea of... More

Based on other customer reviews a booking was made here for three nights. As with most rooms in this hotel on the side of a hill, my room had a balcony with a great view of the Cathedral across the valley. The breakfasts were very adequate and the room was very clean and kept that way during my stay. While... More

My husband and I have just spent 2 nights here. We paid 75 EUR per night for a double room which included breakfast. The room was VERY basic and we were quite disappointed considering the cost.  If you wanted to use wifi you had to pay, there was no tea, coffee or snacks available, and it was quite noisy at...

Our stay in Siena at Hotal Alma Domus was truly "a little piece of Heaven on earth" in Italy. Valentina was the staff member we encountered the majority of the time and could not be more delightful! Every staff member was extremely helpful and were bilingual which made communication so much easier for us. The continental breakfast was wonderful and... More

The room is magnificently simple, modest, clean and the view from the balcony is breath-taking. This could not be more lovely - looking out upon this middle ages city businesses, homes, museums, cathedrals that have endured like caves, and have beauty that is frozen in time (-- colors of earthy golds!). The hotel is lovely, and staff very helpful. Staff... More
