B&B Il Barbero is in a perfect location for Siena -- you can easily walk to the cathedral, main square, and other spots. Sara was an incredible host who went above and beyond. She shares a guest guide with you, which includes phenomenal recommendations for where to eat, what to do, and more. Additionally, we happened to be leaving on a train strike day and she was incredibly helpful in finding us trains that would run and generally recommending what we should do to get to our next destination. We would strongly recommend this spot to anyone and definitely want to return soon!

Everything was amazing!

We liked the property very much! Firstly, host is super friendly, nice and helps a lot with all the informations we needed. Location is great, short walk from the main squares and streets. Also parking (considering that B&B is inside the city walls) is close! We found free parking 5-8 minute walk away. The property also had a nice garden, which can be used anytime to chill, read, hang out … As we stayed in Siena in hot July, chilling there wasnt a good idea in the hottest parts of the day. Evenings were perfect. Room was very clean, bathroom modern and nice, air conditioning worked perfectly (without one is impossible to live in Siena in summer). Room had small fridge too with possibility to buy some drinks. We didnt order breakfast, as we wanted to try all local food in restaurants but… they had option of breakfast in first floor also.

We liked everything!

We really enjoyed our stay at B& il Barbero. Sara & Eugenio were perfect hosts. We chose to have breakfast there which was very reasonably priced and ideal for what we wanted. The room was modern and clean with air con which we used during our stay as it was very warm. The location was excellent for getting to the main tourist parts of Siena. Whilst there we took the opportunity to have some time away from the crowds by using the garden which was a lovely setting and nice to bring a bottle of wine back to enjoy which we did.

We liked everything about this property and was the best one we stayed at during our trip.

I stayed for 3 nights at Il Barbero, and had a wonderful stay. The B&B is well positioned for all the major sites, and about a 20min walk from top of the hill after the Train station (I took a bus from the Train station to the first major bus stop after the hill climb was over!). If you do not feel like walking, taxi's are also available. The area was great to walk around, with restaurants and assorted shops nearby, and at no time did I feel unsafe (I travelled alone). The Room had lots of space, the bed was comfortable, a great waterfall shower and excellent Wifi. You could also get the English satellite news channels for those that like to keep up with the news! Breakfast was a mix of savory and sweet items from a buffet, and then a "chosen" item ordered the night before such as a toasted sandwich, waffle or pancakes. The communication before and during the visit from Sara was excellent, the B&B was easy to find, and as I thought I would arrive after reception closed, codes were provided so that I could easily get into my room. Sara also provides a map of Siena and an info booklet on the town, which although I had done pre-research, proved to be very useful. There are various walks suggested in the booklet, which also gave a different perspective on Siena. Sara also provides a very good info book herself of general info such as recommended restaurants etc, and is on hand to answer any queries you may have - one of the best B&B owners I have met from that perspective. A great place to stay in Siena!

Nothing, the B&B met every expectation

Very welcoming owners. Splendid location, close to the sights but not right in the middle of the many other tourists. Nice restaurant next door.

In the bathroom, there was no syphon under the sink. As a result it was not well isolated from the smell of the Siena's sewage. (Fortunately, the smell did not reach the room. I mentionned it to staff and I trust they will fix this.)

Clean comfortable accommodation with modern decor. Family run by Sara and Eugine with help from her mum. All really friendly and helpful with nothing too much trouble. Centrally located and has access within the ztl. for loading/unloading plus free parking only 5 minutes walk away. Lovely views across Siena from the lounge and garden.

Accommodation is on 3rd floor up a steep staircase

Great location and environment . The whole apartment is very quiet at night, you can have a good sleep even at 9pm. There were some little problems with the shower jet and one of the window at first cuz previous guest might use them the wrong way, but staff helped fix them. Anyway, recommend it.

Staff could not be reached in the evening, so it is recommended check in as early as possible.

Lovely tranquil setting on the edge of the old town of Siena. Amazing view from the room of Tuscan hills. Easy to walk into town and see the sights. Very clean and comfortable and a friendly welcome from Sara and staff. Very good and plentiful breakfast buffet.

Nothing I didn't like. Its a small B&B so what it lacks in facilities it makes up for in intimacy and personal service.

I stayed one night, arrived after checking time but the staff was very helpful and gave me a code. The house is within the city walls and perfectly situated. My room was surprisingly big for being in such an old house. It had a balcony with amazing city view. The bathroom was nice. Breakfast was also good. I can recommend the B&B

We booked last minute and couldn't have been happier. The lady that greeted us (the owner's mum) was such a delight and made our stay memorable. The B & B was themed around Palio winning horses from her district and she was so proud her district had recently won the Palio. She gave us great recommendations for restaurants and other things to do. Rooms were comfortable and breakfast was also very good
