Beautiful hotel with lovely character. Stayed in a deluxe room with a lovely terrace & great views. All the staff from reception to those in the breakfast room were very helpful. In particular the young gentleman who checked me in, apologies I didn't get his name, was extremely friendly & welcoming.

Well located lovely hidden gem in Siena. Room was big and cool, breakfast was good with fresh pastries and assortment of meats and cheese. The staff were exceptional and really helpful. We have a lovely stay here. The only negative I would say was that the pillows were hard and uncomfy.

Very beautiful historic hotel in downtown Siena. It does not have elevators so you have to carry your luggage up, but does have a lift for handicap. The air conditioning was struggling to work however.

"Chiostro" has that special charm that an 18th century nun`s cloister can transmit. Unfortunately, the rooms, a bit basic in their furnishings but otherwise good-sized and comfortable, are in need of maintenance. In our case, we would have to turn the aircon off every night, as its noise made it impossible to sleep - luckily, if the room was kept at maximum cool during the whole day, the room would remain cool enough for the night`s sleep. The hand shower would not fit, and could thus not stay fixed, into its socket - hand held showering only! We can not really recommend "Chiostro".

Convenient location near affordable restaurants and grocery stores, courteous staff, great views of Siena and the Tuscan countryside, wonderful breakfast room and courtyard. Highly recommended for those who don’t mind climbing a flight or two of stairs.

The location is great and the staff are incredible specially Matheo. Does not have elevator. The air conditioner is not very cold and the shower water does not have pressure. They offer a small fridge.

The Abbey is beautiful, even more than the photos tell. The room was spacious and comfortable, and breakfast was amazing! Furthermore, the staff were extremely helpful in ordering us a cab when we did our wine tasting in the countyside. I will absolutely be staying here again when I return.

Very beautiful property that is well maintained for the most part. It is older, so there are quirks , as with all older properties. The staff was very attentive, breakfast was good and we were within 10 min walk to the Piazza del Campo and the Basilica.
This was a great time of year to be here before the BIG crowds arrive.

The place was quirky with a lovely outside area to sit and enjoy. The staff we great, kind, polite and very helpful. The only downside was that there was a loose tile on our floor which was a trip hazard and there was no heating. We did however enjoy our time at the hotel and would definitely visit again.

I wrote to Expedia and explained that we would not be going to Siena and did not need the room a month before we left. Expedia wrote back and said the room was non-refundable. All our hotels told us as long as I have them 48 hours, I should have been refunded! SHAME ON EXPEDIA! I would like to hear from someone regarding this matter.

The hotel is very pretty, quaint and clean. The staff are very friendly and personable. A leaking drain in bathroom sink was fixed promptly and well by Santo. The maids do a great job cleaning. The breakfast is the best I have ever experienced. The staff are very accommodating and provide anything that you ask for. For an old building, the property is very attractive and does not smell moldy in anyway. It's centrally located and all major attractions are within walking distance. Major supermarkets are further away which is understandable but a Carrefour Express is located a few steps away.I will recommend this hotel to my friends and family members.

This is a very nice and convenient place to stay. It has an old historic feel which we really liked. There are no elevators and some rooms are on the second and third floor, so be aware of this. It has a lovely courtyard. we would happily stay there again.

Service was excellent and the attention to the guest needs was outstanding! The room was clean, sufficiently spacious and comfortable. Breakfast buffet amazing and surpasses many 5-star hotels. The ambiance of the monastery could be felt throughout the property. We loved it and if we ever return to Siena will definitely stay once again!

Il Chiostro del Carmine is a beautiful place to stay and well located, a 10 minute walk to the Duomo and the Piazza di Campo. (It’s a 10 minute taxi ride to the train station.) Our room was quite small but very elegant with a view onto the roofs of Siena. The staff were welcoming and happy to assist in any way. Breakfast was included and there was a very good selection of food. I would certainly recommend this hotel and would stay there again if we were in Siena.
6.0
This property is unique because it's in a former monastery from the 13th century. However, it is in need of routine maintenance and more attention to daily upkeep in the rooms. The toilet was not functioning properly, the soap containers were never refilled in the bathroom, the small refrigerator didn't work and the air conditioning was intermittent. The front desk staff was helpful in arranging transportation, however, and the breakfast was very good.

The proximity to the centre and the amazing view. Just a broken toilet seat should be replaced in this hotel standard.

A wonderful historical building. The staff was the best we had in Italy. They helped us with train reservations, local non tourist restaurants, places to visit and so much more. The people made this our favorite stay in Italy.

Hotel is in old palazzo: terrific experience. No elevators: not so great for people with disabilities.
