Palazzetto Rosso Art Hotel

A nine-room hotel in a 13th-century building a few minutes from Piazza del Campo in Siena, with a bar, a wine shop and breakfast included.

Why people love it

• Nine different rooms. A February guest says each of the nine rooms is furnished differently. Others mention a panoramic suite with views of the rooftops and a big tub in a room.
• Breakfast. Guests describe fresh berries, eggs and freshly brewed coffee, and a July guest calls the breakfast beautiful and varied.
• A medieval palace. Guests describe original architecture, wall decorations, statues and wolves, and a lobby that one reviewer rates 10 out of 10.
• Staff and location. A May guest names the front staff as the reason it was their favourite of the hotels on a two-week Tuscany trip, and several mention restaurants a short walk away.
• Last-minute rescue. A June guest booked two rooms at short notice when their original accommodation did not have air conditioning working.

The worst thing guests say

In 20 reviews since November 2025, the lowest rating is 3 stars from October 2026. That guest said expectations were only partly met. Room 8 had one very small window facing the street, and room 9 had two small windows (the rest is cut off). A May 2026 guest said their room was not very nice (cut off). An August 2022 guest reported a shower sink that did not work, a problem they said had been known since 2020.

Insider tips

• Ask about window size and outlook when you book. Rooms 8 and 9 had small windows, according to an October 2026 guest.
• There is no 24-hour desk, according to a 2023 guest, so confirm late arrival with them.
• A January 2026 guest was provided parking, so ask about it in advance.
• Ask for the panoramic suite if you want rooftop views.
