About this property

Centralissimo Casa Piazzetta

The apartment is located in downtown Siena. The apartment is a second-floor in an ancient two-story
townhouse within the walls of Siena. Located close to the Duomo, the apartment offers a view of Piazzetta della Selva and San Sebastiano church from three of its windows.
The apartment is an ideal base for a family of three people that wants to experience life in a
wonderfully preserved medieval city. While the furnishings are simple and mostly modern, recently renovated.
From the apartment, a 1 minute walk leads to the Duomo. Piazza del Campo is within a 5 minute
walk. The nearest parking lot is half a mile away. Pollicino, a tiny and inexpensive shuttle, operates
from the lot and stops 300 yards from the apartment.
Also, there is an escalator that arrives from the parking to 100 yards to the apartment.
From the apartment you don't need a car to visit nearby Florence or the many Chianti hill towns
between the two cities. Both La Lizza and San Domenico squares, within a 10 minute walk, offer
frequent bus service to a multitude of places within and beyond Tuscany.
In the apartment there is a living room with cable-TV; eat-in kitchen with stove top, oven, fridge and freezer, dishwasher and washing machine; one bedroom with a king size bed;the other bedroom has a queen bed; one bathroom with shower at the top of a short stair.

Sleeps: 3-5.

Great location

The location can't be beat. Very close to the Duomo and Via Citta. The rental is very nice size for being a central location. Best of all, the hosts are great. You will want to take a taxi or bus to the rental. On our checkout, the taxi drivers went on strike and Uber wanted 66 euros. Our host picked us up and drove us to the station. Simply the best!!

Great location!

Loved the apartment and it’s location. Very clean. If you’re arriving without a car, it’s perfect but if you have a car, it’s a bit of a walk. Don’t let that dissuade you though if you’re able bodied. It’s worth the walk!

Sensational Siena Stay!

Our stay in Siena, although short, was fabulous. Our host, Cristina was great and very responsive. Being a last minute booking, she provided great travel directions as well as marvelous restaurant recommendations. Her son met us at the apartment, showed us the workings of the place, and was a wealth of fascinating history. Especially regarding the Siena Palio racing and the pride of the contradas. The apartment was beautiful, very clean and comfortable. Thank you again for a wonderful stay!

What a treat!

Our stay in Christina and Elena’s place in Siena was fabulous. Even before we arrived, Christina took the initiative and helped us think through parking and transportation. The apartment was exactly as advertised and in the perfect location . We loved the restaurants she suggested and since we were there a few days before the Palio, she helped us figure out ways to join in the fun. All in all it was a magical few days. We would certainly stay here again.

Superb Location

We were met at the property by the owners son who was polite and very helpful. The property was clean, very comfortable and well equipped. Location was excellent. If arriving by train it is well worth while stocking up on things at the supermarket near station as it is a lot cheaper than local shops. One of the cleanest places I’ve stayed in Thankyou so much

Wonderful apartment!

The apartment is on a small piazza, on the second floor. The photos accurately describe the property. There is a lot of light, but with the window shades, is very dark at night. It is off the main tourist areas, but right around the corner from the Duomo. Easy access to all sightseeing. There is a wonderful "corner store" and restaurant Antica Osteria Da Divo nearby.The owners, Cristina and her family were very kind and helpful. Wi Fi was great! Nearby parking was along Via Fontebranda and up a set of 6 escalators. Will definitely return!

Piazzeta della Selva

L'appartamento si trova nel centro stórico di Siena, a pochi minuti a piedi da tutti i principali monumenti della Citta. E' situato a 100 metri del Duomo, 200 metri della Piazza Del Campo. É un bell'appartamento confortevole, adatto ad una coppia con due figli, per esempio. Çristina , ci ha accolto molto bene. Tornerei con piacere nell'appartamento della Piazzeta della Selva.

Casa Piazzetta at Piazetta della Selva

We (two couples) stayed at Casa Piazzetta in October 2012. The apartment is very centrally located, a two minute walk to the Duomo, less than ten minutes to Il Campo and about fifteen minutes to Piazza Gramsci. It was centrally located for touring Siena. We found it very convenient to return to our apartment whenever we felt like a rest during the day. The windows of the apartment look out over the quiet Piazzetta della Selva, across to the Contrada office and the Chiesa di San Sebastiano, and beyond to the Tuscan sunsets. We heard church bells chiming and watched locals and tourists wander past, enjoying the charm of the city. The apartment is situated in a typical medieval Sienese building. It is up two flights of stairs which have been upgraded to modern standards. Recently renovated, it has two bedrooms (with limited closet space), a compact modern bathroom, and a new kitchen with full cooking facilities, a good-sized fridge, a dishwasher and a clothes washer. The lounge has a comfortable sofa which seats three to four people. The lighting was good. We had more than enough space for all our needs. Cristina was a very accommodating hostess. She met us outside the city walls, and piled the four of us and all our luggage into her car to take us into the city. She gave us a thorough introduction to the apartment, and told us about some special performances and exhibitions. She encouraged us to phone of email her if we had further questions to ask her. We very much enjoyed the bottle of wine and ricciarelli (a specialty cookie of Siena) that she left for us to enjoy. This apartment provided an ideal residence for our visit to Siena. We were very comfortable here. If you are fortunate, as we were, you might even see a performance by the contrada drummer and flag throwers in Piazzetta della Selva.

It worked out great for us!

This apartment is located just a few steps away from Duomo. Location is perfect! The apartment is very clean and well maintained, we found everything we needed for three people (one bedroom for my husband and me, another for my friend). The owner was waiting for us exactly as we agreed and was very helpful in showing us where to park the car for free not far away from the apartment. He actually drove us from the apartment to the place where we could leave the car and after that drove us back to the apartment. We could only stay for one night, but we could easily spend several days and nights in Siena and Casa Siena is a great accomodation: inexpensive, convenient and very comfortable. We are very thankful to Christina and Marco.

Great value for money. Excellent position in the heart of Siena

I stayed in this apartment for 4 weeks while attending the language school. It is an easy walk to everything. It is on the top floor so there are 2 flights of stairs to walk up. There is no lift. If you arrive by car, park in the carpark named Santa caterina, on via frontebranda. It is 150 metres to the escalator that is 100 metres from the apartment. I arrived by train and the owners collected me, which was great. The apartment was safe and clean and comfortable. Some of the linens were a little old but clean. The beds and furniture are new. The bathroom is brand new but tiny. But everything worked! I walked to the school each day, the supermarket and Piazza del Campo. This apartment is directly behind the Duomo,away from the centre. It is very quiet and although there is a church directly opposite, there is no 'bell' noise or tourist noise. I was there by myself and felt very safe and comfortable. I had to contact the owners to fix something and they were very helpful. Nothing was too much trouble for them. Both Cristina and Valentina were very helpful. This is not a luxurious apartment. It is an very clean ,safe, serviceable and comfortable apartment that I thought was excellent value for money. I highly recommend this apartment.
