"Fantastic location and it was very beautiful in a very old building. The staff was so nice and helpful, I would highly recommend. More of a bed and breakfast than a hotel, but so nice. "
"Incredible location!!! The owner is so lovely and took alot of time to explain the area, give recommendations.
She takes pride in her business and making sure her guests are well taken care of. She called our taxi, then walked with us and stayed until we got in.
The rooms are beautiful!
The only thing was the elevator with the grated platform you must walk across to get to the door really made us feel uneasy.
Would absolutely stay here again though! "
"This is very small bed and breakfast with the best location in Siena. Perfect walking distance to everything.
They are very service oriented. This place only has 3 rooms. Very personal service. Breakfast is good. "
"Beautiful place to stay in Siena. The location is perfect and the hotel is great. Our room was very spacious and the breakfast was top notch. Thank you to all the wonderful staff! Would definitely stay here again!"

"We stayed here Aug 2025, coming in from Florence. Siena is absolutely gorgeous and Hotel Athena was the perfect hotel to explore the area. The hotel itself was very nice, updated, good sized rooms with nice bathroom. Tea kettle in the room and water in the fridge (at no extra cost) was appreciated after long days on the hills of the town. We dined at the rooftop restaurant twice and the food was excellent, views were unbelievable.
As to the hotel staff- I can’t give them enough stars! The front desk staff were so welcoming and helped us arrange a day tour, figure out our return to the train station etc. The restaurant staff was also very good and always checked on us.
Oh- the breakfast buffet can’t be missed. Well worth it and no extra charge.
Excellent hotel- highly recommend "
"The building, the views, the staff, the food, everything was just incredible. It was so quiet we felt like we were the only people there until we went for breakfast and realised there were others in the hotel. The view from the our room at the back of the hotel over the Tuscan hills will live with me for a very long time. "
