부동산 — Residence Ciompi
The Residence Ciompi is a no-frills, family-run 3-star hotel about a 10-minute walk from Siena's historic centre. The lobby feels more like a local apartment block than a hotel — tiled floors, a small reception desk, and a plastic plant. Rooms are basic but spotless, with decent bathrooms and a couple of kitchenettes. It suits budget-conscious travellers who want a clean, quiet base with a supermarket opposite and a bus stop nearby, not romance or character.
Siena 연대기
Siena was founded as a Roman colony (Saena Julia) under Augustus, but its real wealth came from medieval banking and trade. The city-state fiercely competed with Florence for centuries, culminating in the 1260 Battle of Montaperti. Its Gothic core — narrow cobbled lanes, terracotta rooftops, and the shell-shaped Piazza del Campo — was largely frozen in time by the Black Death (1348) and subsequent economic decline. Today Siena is a UNESCO World Heritage site, its identity still centred on the Palio, a twice-yearly bareback horse race that has run since the 17th century.
방문하기 가장 좋은 시간
Siena 완전 가이드 →최고의 달
May, June and September offer warm, sunny days (22–28°C) with far fewer tourists than July–August. The countryside is green in late spring and golden in early autumn.
Peak / Festival Surge 근처 오락거리
July and August are peak; the Palio on 2 July packs the city with spectators and hotel prices often double. Expect 35°C heat, queues at the Duomo, and booked-out restaurants. The Residence Ciompi will be at its highest rates, likely €150+ per night.
Budget Shoulder 시즌
April and October are ideal for discounts: rooms at the Residence can drop to €70–90. Spring brings wildflowers and mild 18°C days; autumn has harvest festivals and quieter streets. Pack light layers for cool evenings.
날씨 & 포장
Siena sits on a hill, so summer afternoons are hot (often >35°C) but evenings drop sharply by 10°C or more. Pack one light jacket or cardigan for dinner outdoors, plus comfortable walking shoes for the steep alleys.
City Briefing 근처 오락거리 — Siena
- Siena's city council has restricted vehicle access in the historic centre from 8am to 8pm, June – September; if driving, ask the hotel about the limited-time blue permit for loading/unloading.
- The Duomo di Siena's Piccolomini Library is still operating timed-entry slots in summer 2026; pre-book at least two days ahead to skip the 45-minute queue.
- A new cycle lane along Via dei Rossi (from Porta Ovile to Piazza del Sale) opened in spring 2026, making it easier to reach the Fortezza Medicea safely without a car.
Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Residence Ciompi, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on the upper floors (2nd or 3rd) facing the internal courtyard, if available. These are quieter and likely have better natural light, avoiding street noise from Via Ciompi.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid rooms on the ground floor near the reception or stairwell, as they can pick up early-morning lobby activity and street-level noise. Rooms facing the street at the front may also suffer from traffic sounds in a historic centre like Siena.
Best views
Ask for a room at the back or side to overlook the internal courtyard or neighboring rooftops — typical of a 3-star in Siena's compact historic district. Front-facing rooms may glimpse the street but gain little in return.
Quietest floors
Floors 2 and 3 (first and second piani in Italian) are generally the quietest, well above street-level rumble and further from the small lift mechanism if present.
🔊 Noise notes
Residence Ciompi is on a small street in Siena's city centre, so expect daytime foot traffic and occasional Vespas. The lift is small and likely audible from adjacent rooms, especially on lower floors. Soundproofing in older buildings can be thin, so pack earplugs.
Insider tips
1. Parking in Siena's ZTL (limited traffic zone) is tricky; confirm with the hotel if they offer a nearby garage or permit drop-off before arrival. 2. For a quieter stay, request a high-floor courtyard room at booking, and specify 'no ground floor' — this avoids the worst noise and gives a better sense of the city's roofscape.
- 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

💡 Book a fixed-price transfer with Welcome Pickups or a local company like TaxiSiena to avoid surge pricing. Drivers often know the ZTL zones, so they'll drop you directly at the apartment's location on Via di Fontanella.
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.
Florence Airport (FLR) → Comfort Siena Design Apartment (Siena Bus Station)
💡 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 Train Station → Comfort Siena Design Apartment
💡 Only use official white taxis with the 'TAXI' sign. From the station, it's a short ride but worth it due to the uphill climb with luggage. Call 0577 49221 for a radio taxi if none are in the queue.

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.
