Domus Nannini SPA – Palazzo Nannini

Hotel Description

You know what? I’ve stayed at plenty of places in Siena, but Domus Nannini SPA genuinely surprised me. It’s tucked away on Via Costa dell’Incrociata – which, honestly, sounds more intimidating than it is – but once you find it, you’ll understand why this little palazzo earned that 9.4 rating. The building itself has this quiet elegance that doesn’t scream “look at me” like some of the flashier hotels near the Campo.

What really got me was how they’ve managed to blend the old palazzo charm with actually modern comfort. I mean, you’re sleeping in what feels like a Renaissance nobleman’s residence, but the shower pressure is fantastic and the air conditioning works (trust me, crucial in July). The spa is the real hidden gem here – after spending hours wandering Siena’s steep streets, those thermal treatments hit differently. It’s intimate, not some massive resort-style facility, which I actually preferred. The staff clearly knows their stuff too; they recommended this tiny enoteca just around the corner that I never would’ve found otherwise.

The location is honestly perfect if you know Siena at all. You’re close enough to walk to the Duomo in about ten minutes, but far enough from the tourist chaos that you can actually sleep at night. Plus – and this matters more than you’d think – there’s decent parking nearby, which is basically a miracle in this city. I stayed during shoulder season in October, and the whole area had this lovely, lived-in feeling where you’d see locals doing their daily shopping rather than just tour groups. The breakfast spread was solid too, nothing revolutionary but fresh pastries and good coffee, which is really all you need before heading out to explore. If you’re looking for somewhere that feels authentically Sienese without sacrificing comfort, this place nails it.

• the best place to stay in siena – Lidia from United Kingdom – 26 November 2024 (10/10)

  absolutely beautiful apartment, super clean and a great location in the city centre. The hosts were amazing, they helped us find somewhere to park when we arrived and they even left us treats, along with milk, ormage juice, water and breakfast bits. truly an exceptional stay.
  
  What could be improved: nothing! it was perfect

• Magnificent! – Ivan from United States – 19 November 2024 (10/10)

  Everything.
  
  What could be improved: Being in our early and late 70’s, going up and down the stairs to the bedroom was a little bit difficult, but nothing major.

• Great place for large groups, we were an expended family. – Steve from United States – 18 November 2024 (9/10)

  Location could not be better! Apartment is luxurious! Apartment was spotless when we got there and was cleaned spotless twice during our 17 day stay. They coordinated with us to clean on days we were out. Facilitated airport pick up, and provided a stroller free when requested. We had two family members join after we booked and the hosts were very gracious about letting them join us. Kitchen and bathrooms very well equipped.
  
  What could be improved: Can’t think of any negatives!

• Exceptional – Teresa from United States – 24 October 2024 (10/10)

  beautiful apartment and furnishings

• The perfect place to stay in Siena, a beautiful vibe with home comforts, incredible view. Loved it! – Karen from Australia – 5 October 2024 (10/10)

  The location was perfect, the little personal touches and gifts that were left for us, the decor was stunning and the view was stunning!
  Couldn’t rate our experience higher. Host also organised our valet parking.
  
  What could be improved: N/A

• Exceptional – Suzy from United States – 11 September 2024 (10/10)

  The property was absolutely stunning. It was exactly as the pictures showed the host were beyond amazing. The location was perfect. They recommended the valet parking and we met the manager Donato. They were the best value you can imagine.
  
  What could be improved: The one thing we would’ve enjoyed, would’ve been a shower versus a tub to stand in to take a shower and a little more counterspace in the bathroom but other than that, it was perfect. Again we highly recommend the valet parking service was $15 per night, and it was an incredible value.
