Antica Residenza Cicogna

One of the most characteristic and beautiful hotels I have come across in Italy! I had a wonderful stay and can't wait for the opportunity to return. The location is perfect - 5 minute walking from all the major sites and breakfast was delicious. The rooms are covered in frescoes and it really feels like the perfect Tuscan dream escape. This is THE place to stay in Siena.

My wife and I stayed 3 incredible nights at Antica Residenza Cicogna and wished we could have stayed longer. I knew through the emails and contact with owner Elisa before we came that this would be a great place to stay. She is so kind and thoughtful, responsive in every way. Everything about her place was special. Elisa is such a great hostess! Her attention to detail is clear in how beautiful her bread and breakfast is ran. The breakfast was amazing, cappuccino every morning was terrific. The Liberty Room we stayed in was beautiful as was her whole place. I'm sure any room you were in would be great. The staff she has are a pleasure and so kind. Hopefully will be able to return to beautiful Siena in the near future and without a doubt we would stay in her Bed and Breakfast.

Elisa is a fantastic host and helped us to make a call to car rental to help resolve a rental issue. This is truly a gracious and lovely property that has been in the family for 2 centuries. Breakfast was plentiful and had lots of choices. The rooms are elegant with frescoes on the ceiling. Definitely recommend and will return!

I loved this hotel so much, from the beautiful, frescoed rooms to the perfect positioning close to all the sites. Most importantly, the kind staff went the extra mile to make our stay perfect. Never a “no” or an annoying attitude—only smiles and helpful information.

A lovely room, breakfast and location! The owner was very helpful and kind in getting us situated and getting a taxi when it was time to go. The restoration of this historic building is very nicely done. The lounge area is a pleasant place to have a cup of tea and biscotti. I highly recommend!

Beautiful B&B in historical building. Delicious breakfast. Central location. Comfortable beds. Strong hot showers and strong air conditioning if those matter to you. Elisa and Llaria went out of their way to be helpful. Excellent stay. Highly recommended.

This is a very beautifully restored B&B located in the center of Siena, with beautiful ceiling frescoes and antiques throughout. The staff is warm and always helpful. Our room very large, clean and comfortable. While the outside was busy & bustling during the day, it was quiet at night. Air conditioning was available, but not needed during our stay. Breakfast offered a wonderful selection of baked goods, cured meats and cheese, yogurt and coffee. All very delicious. We had a wonderful stay and would be happy to return someday.

This was easily one of the best stays of our two weeks in Italy, the only problem is that we didn't stay longer. Check in was extremely easy and flexible (although we arrived at a pretty natural time). The rooms were cute yet functional, and Elisa was a great hose and baker in the morning. The location was perfect too.
