great location just outside the walls of Siena. Best breakfast with fresh, well made cappucino and hot "cornettos". Luck of the draw with room size. Best, biggest rooms upstairs near reception.

Nice hotel, nice people. We liked the patio with a good view of Tuscan countryside where you can sit, drink wine and enjoy Siena. Also like the garage parking since parking around Siana is a huge pain. Finally, the breakfast was better than most B&Bs.

We were a family of 4. The room was large and the a/c worked well. The room was spotless. The breakfast included was good. We were happy to be able to park our car in a secure parking lot under the hotel. There are many stairs to the hotel and it is outside the walls of Siena. It is a... More

Hotel Alex isn't particularly personal, but offers very good value for money with clean and spacious rooms, very good location and nice staff (although not all of them speak very good English). The breakfast is ok _by Italian standards_.

Good location, own garage in the basement with a "bit complicated entry" and navigation. Rooms spatious, clean ... not really charming but ... Breakfast not really special but OK. Staff helpful, some speak English, some really do not.

Being fairly seasoned European travelers, the Hotel Alex didn't stand out as particularly better or worse than any other place we've stayed. When we arrived a very friendly, fluent English speaking woman helped us with parking and carrying up our bags. Not all the staff speak English, but the front desk staff seem too. The room was large, and very... More

We stayed here recently and would recommend this hotel - the rooms are comfortable and the owners ensured we could check in early as we planned to arrive before the standard check-in time. The hotel is in a good location (a 2 minute walk to Porta Pispini which takes you in to the 'old' walled city - and then a... More

We recently stayed 3 nights at Hotel Alex. Seriously not even good for just a place to sleep at night. The hotel staff were unfriendly (didn't even acknowledge us coming and going), there are 25 stairs to get to the main entrance and no one helps you with luggage, hotel has a bad sewage smell, rooms are clean, but very,...

This hotel is just outside one of the main doors of Siena. Great location - near one of the best pasticcerias in Siena and near bus drop off point. Well known and been there for many years. Good breakfast, clean and quiet rooms, small bathroom, but very good value for an expensive city.
