부동산 — Podere Spagliarda
Podere Spagliarda is a working farmhouse converted to a simple 3-star hotel about 6km north of Siena’s centre. The vibe is rustic and quiet: olive groves, a small pool, and views over the Chianti hills rather than the cathedral. The lobby is a low-ceilinged room with terracotta floors and a wood-burning stove — practical and unhurried. Suits a driver wanting parking and a calm base outside the walled city, not luxury or nightlife.
Siena 연대기
Siena was founded as an Etruscan settlement, later becoming a powerful medieval banking and trade rival to Florence. Its strict Gothic architecture, most visible in the Piazza del Campo and the Duomo, dates from the 13th and 14th centuries after a republican government was installed. The city declined after the Black Death and later absorbed into the Grand Duchy of Tuscany, preserving its medieval fabric. Today it’s known for the Palio horse race, a twice-yearly bareback race around the piazza that still divides the 17 contrade (neighbourhoods). Modern Siena is a UNESCO World Heritage site and a university town, balancing tourism with daily life.

Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Podere Spagliarda, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on the first floor (European first floor, one above ground) facing the garden or courtyard rather than the road. These rooms are quieter and may have a clearer view of the surrounding countryside, as the hotel is set back from the provincial road.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid ground-floor rooms near the entrance or parking area – they may have noise from guests arriving/departing and from the access road. Also avoid rooms directly above the breakfast/dining area if the layout suggests that, as morning sounds carry.
Best views
Rooms on the first floor or higher, especially at the side or back of the property, likely offer views of the Val d'Orcia countryside (rolling hills, olive groves) rather than the road. The address says San Quirico D’Orcia, so the hotel is outside Siena in a rural zone – make the most of that.
Quietest floors
First floor (one above ground) and above, away from the service entrance and main circulation areas.
🔊 Noise notes
Main noise source is traffic from Strada Provinciale 53 (a secondary road, but still busy at times). Guest parking area and breakfast room can also generate moderate noise in the morning. No lift mentioned (3-star rural property often lacks one), so request ground or first floor if you have mobility issues.
Insider tips
1) Request a room in the annex or back wing if the hotel has one – many farmhouse-style hotels (podere) have separate buildings, and those are quieter. 2) If you drive, use the parking area furthest from the entrance to avoid car door sounds. 3) Ask for a room with a window that opens onto the garden side – the rural views are a key feature here.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
- Add a note in your booking comments field
- Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available

Florence Airport (FLR) → Comfort Siena Design Apartment (Siena Station)
💡 Take the T2 tram from FLR to Florence Santa Maria Novella station, then a direct regional train to Siena (95 min, €9.20). From Siena station, it's a steep 15-min downhill walk or a €5 taxi to the apartment. Avoid the Trenitalia Intercity trains—they're not faster.

💡 Flixbus and Tiemme run direct coaches from FLR to Siena's bus station (Piazza Gramsci). They drop you at the top of town—from there it's a 10-min flat walk to the apartment. Sit on the left for views of the towers on the way in.

Siena 주요 관광지
💡 Check for free guided tours on Saturday mornings. The reliquary containing her head is eerie but fascinating.
💡 Bring a picnic. It's less busy than the main parks. Paths can be steep — wear flat shoes.
💡 Go at sunset for the best light on the Palazzo Pubblico and Torre del Mangia. Early morning it's almost empty.
💡 Entry is €12 but the 'Porta del Cielo' rooftop tour costs extra. Go on a Sunday for free Mass entry — you still see the interior.
💡 Free on the first Sunday of each month. Otherwise €9. The underground 'sacred tunnels' are the highlight, not the modern art wing.
