 Date of Stay: January, 2007
 We stayed at Il Casato for 2 very comfortable nights. The rooms were quite spaceous, the staff was very kind. It was a prime location within the heart of Siena and a 5-7 minute cab ride from the train station to Il Casato. The tavern a couple doors down on Via Dupre featured some of the best food I've ever had in Italy-- a mind-blowing wine list, traditional Tuscan dishes, great truffle dishes. Il Casato is a fantastic value, and I can't wait to stay here again.

 Very good B&B with excellent position in the city centre. Good service, with breakfast served in room. The warming of the room was not so good, in the morning the temperature was slightly low.

 What a wonderful place. Such excellent value for money. Myself and my husband and my mum stayed for 4 nights in November 2006 and we both had a terrace with our rooms. You could see the tower in Il Campo from my mums. It was central, beautifully historic, warm and welcoming and I couldn't recommend it highly enough
 
6. From: SANTORO JODY
 Date of Stay: October, 2006
 Tucked into one of the quaint streets right off the main plaza in Siena, Il Casato was the most charming hotel I have EVER stayed in. The building was an immaculately restored home from the middle ages with cozy common areas such as an enclosed garden and arched ceiling sitting rooms. Our bedroom had a painted fresco on the ceiling, private bath and looked out into the Siena countryside. The staff reccomended the restaurant next door and we were blown away by the atmosphere and quality of food. Appetizer of smoked mozzarella bruschetta was unbelievable! I had limited expectations when I booked Il Casato, because of its reasonable price, I can't believe what a gem we had found! This was my favorite part of our Italian vacation as I could imagine what it might have been like to be a resident of this beautiful city.
 
7. From: Mccloskey Jennifer
 Date of Stay: October, 2006
 The accommodation was great,just as described and the garden was lovely, we didn't use the lounge as it was a bit dark for reading. The location was ideal for exploring Siena and the restaurant next door was fantastic. The staff were very helpful. Having read other peoples reviews I was well aware that the property had lots of steps, luckily we were on the lowest floor and the receptionist helped us with our cases. The only slight complaints I have are that it wasn't made clear in the description that breakfast was served in your bedroom, therefore we didn't meet or get talking to any other guests. We also didn't discover the whereabouts of the kitchen until near the end of our stay. Finally one time we came back via the higher street - Casato Sopra and found that our key wouldn't work and it is a bit of a hike round to the lower entrance. Nevertheless excellent value for money.

 Without having fist hand knowledge of other accomodation in the old walled part of Siena it's difficult to make comparison...the building is old, there's no elevator so be ready to lug your bags up or down thin and uneven stairs, from your room you hear most of what goes on in the street. But Siena is that kind of town, very old and with steep stairs and streets. And there is no non-resident parking in the old part of the city unless you park in a parking garage which will cost you about 20 euros/night...at least this hotel was close enough to the wall that we could find parking outside and only be about ten minutes away from the car. Unload your bags and then move your car, you won't need it, and once you've seen the steepness and narrowness of the streets you won't want to drive on them anyway. This hotel is very conveniently located and the young girl at the front desk is the most helpful person in Italy. The best resturant in town is right next door.

 The small hotel is very nice. It’s like being a guest in the large house of a friend. Several cosy rooms for everyone to use and a comfortable guestroom for yourself. The small breakfast was delivered to the room. The hotel is very near to the central piazza Il Campo.
 
10. From: Iannaccio Giovanni
 Date of Stay: August, 2006
 It was a quite exciting experience to stay close to the heartbeat of the town, so close to where the life of Siena has been built by centuries. The building itself was a breathtaking landmark. A must for everyone who wants to spend a few days in Siena. Bed- breakfast and private terrace in stone! what else? A very cute, pretty and lovely receptionist! well cared details (see the lamps, the libraries, the facilities...). Great and lovable

 Date of Stay: November, 2005
 I booked a suite, what we got was two rooms that once were good size,but now each had been reduced by about 1/3 or better to accomodate two bathrooms. What was left was filled with tacky painted wardrope furniture and beds (without even headboards) in both rooms. It was two attached bedrooms, NOT a suite by any standards. Breakfast was ALFULL, served in the room, ONE crossant, sugar orange juice and one luke-warm cub of coffee is NOT breakfast. Staff was helpful, it is easy to get to, great restrurant out the bottom door, good location in town were all pluses.
 
13. From: Dent Kathryn
 Date of Stay: October, 2005
 I have mixed feelings about my stay at Il Casato. Firstly, a warm welcome to Siena this is NOT - if you happen to arrive between 1 and 3.30 pm, when the building is completely locked up and inaccessible. Secondly, the address as stated on the web page is actually used as a sort of 'back door' that you can only access once you have checked in a got a key. The real entry and check in desk is on Via Dupre - a steep and weary walk round the block if you have baggage - and the website does not make this clear. Thirdly, although the rooms have heating, it was switched off when I was there and so my room was very cold. And the bathroom had a nasty smell. Finally, for breakfast I was served with the worst cup of coffee I have ever tasted in Italy. However, it wasn't all bad. I could not have wished for a better location - within easy walking distance of the Campo and the Duomo and so perfect for seeing Siena. The staff were friendly and helpful and there is also a lovely garden at this property. Unfortunately the weather was a bit too cool for me to make use of it, but I definitely would have otherwise.

 Would we stay here again? Absolutely Yes! Super close to Piazza del Campo, breakfast delivered to our room - how wonderful is that? Staff was wonderful (waited for us to arrive after dark, recommended another B&B when we wanted to extend our stay in Siena and Il Casato was full). We planned for 3 nights, and stayed 6 - Siena is amazing! We hated to leave...
 
15. From: Collins David
 Date of Stay: October, 2005
 I arrived late and the instructions on where to collect the keys and how to get into the building were inadequate. They need to include a map showing the location of the nightime entrance and instructions on which key to use for each door. Otherwise my stay was great and good value.
 
16. From: Westerberg Jennifer
 Date of Stay: March, 2005
 Based on the address given, those doors are not answered and are locked. We were fortunate enough to have found where the actual front door to the building is, about a five minute walk from the address given. Once we got there our stay was very nice. Very much enjoyed our time in Siena. Very nice courtyard to lounge in.
 
17. From: Turner David
 Date of Stay: March, 2005
 Very close to the Il Campo and Duomo without too much street noise. There are two entrances into the property. We arrived late and tried to come in through the upper entrance (big black doors) on via Casato di Sopra and they were locked. Seems the main entrance is off via Dupre instead. Otherwise we very much enjoyed the Il Casato once we settled in.
 
18. From: Powell Ashley
 Date of Stay: November, 2004
 my only gripes are small. it was a bit hazardous on those stairs at times, especially carrying a hefty suitcase up them, but i realize an elevator in such an old building is out of the question! i think the key chains are way too big!--i realize this is so you won't lose them or whatever, but i just took mine off. i found the main door locking situation a bit inconvienient. it would have been nice to have the door lock on it's own from the inside out, but i realize you run the risk of people locking themselves out accidently that way. overall though you have a beautiful establishment there that is very reasonably priced. i had a wonderful stay.
 
19. From: Sabot Judith
 Date of Stay: November, 2004
 I cannot imagine a more lovely location from which to experience Siena. The hotel is far enough from the hustle and bustle of the center to make you feel as if you are truly 'living' in this medieval town, yet close enough to walk to the Piazza del Campo and Duomo in 10 minutes or less. Most of the buildings surrounding the hotel are residential with cafes, newstands etc. a short walk away. We stayed for 2 weeks and felt as if we were living in our own apartment, not a hotel. We did have a large, 2 section suite with a terrace and wonderful views and this did make a difference to our comfort. The only disadvantage was that, with the windows open, the street noise from both Casato di Sopra and Via Dupre could be annoying. With the windows closed, this wasn't a problem. The public spaces, including the lovely garden, are beautiful. You can hear the various bells tolling from the wealth of churches and especially from Il Torre in the Campo. The staff were friendly, always helpful and well informed. I have travelled for many years throughout the world and this is one of the most charming and delightful places I have ever stayed. I'd like to go back and stay for at least a month in the one apartment that is available with considerable pre-booking.

 The reception were very friendly, and i felt like i was staying in an ancestral castle rather than a hotel. The rooftop garden was divine, as were the small but quality continental breakfasts served to the room every morning. The location was just far enough away to feel the peace of this charming city, but only a short walk to the main sights. Will definately be back...
