"Housed in a Renaissance palazzo dating to 1501 and the only five-star hotel in Siena’s historic center, this property showcases aristocratic flair—most notably on the piano nobile with its frescoed ballroom—and 51 individually appointed rooms and suites featuring brocade-lined headboards, occasional ceiling frescoes, large terraces and even a room within the building’s two-story tower, delivering traditional elegance in the heart of the city." - Laura Itzkowitz, Erica Firpo
