Based on recommendations on this site, we stayed at Borgo Grondaie over the first weekend in July, 2008 - right after the Palio. We loved it and recommend it highly, as long as you realize that you will not be in the old, walled city of Siena. While it is possible to walk from the hotel into the city, you'd... more

Just back from a holiday in Italy that included 3 nights in one of the Borgo Grondaie's self-catering apartments. I booked it on the strength of the tripadvisor reviews and I have to say that it was even better than I'd dared to hope. The apartment was spotlessly clean and very comfortable - and the a/c was an added bonus.... more

This smart tuscan villa really is a "hidden gem". The hotel and apartments are full of character and are extremely well presented. The pool is a godsend and a rarity in central Siena. The breakfast is plentiful and full of typical Italian sweetness. It's only a 20 min walk or short bus ride into the centre of Siena. We thought... more

stayed for 4 nights in early july in self catering apartment, olivio 3. Highly rated as a place to stay- 2 double rooms, stove and grill, tables inside aswell as balcony, good quality furnishings, excellent shower and a good pool and relaxation area. approx 20 mins walk into Siena or 10 euro taxi ride. A welcome but convenient break from... more

A charming, beautifully landscaped hotel/apartment on the outskirts of Siena, Borgo Grandaie was more than expected. The staff is super-friendly and very knowledgeable about the area. The apartments are clean, cozy and equipped with all of your daily needs. The pool was extremely clean and quite refreshing considering the sweltering heat and humidity in July. As noted in many other... more

What a delightful place! The apartments are rustic and simple yet provide all the basic amenities one needs. Everything was impeccably clean and well designed. The bathroom shower could have been a little more ergonomic. It could not be positioned at a convenient angle. All in all, a charming place that is 5 min away from Siena and has easy... more

Had a great time in Siena and surrounding area based in this superb hotel. It was clean, quiet and the staff were so friendly and extremely helpful. Can't speak highly enough of this hotel. Too many great places to vist to include here but must mention Ballooning in Tuscany with Robert Etherington. Apart from the flight which was great the... more

I am unable to say anything negative about this hotel. The grounds are beautiful. It is surprising how out of town you feel when you are a less than 5 minute drive to the parking at the base of the old center of town. The rooms was wonderful, and quite large. The staff was great and the breakfast was our... more

My wife and I (we're in our mid 30's) spent an entire week here with 2 nights in a hotel room and 4 in an apartment. It was awesome! You never really know what you're getting when booking online but the Grondaie suprised me. The entire staff was very friendly and always willing to help and the facilites were extremely... more
