It was a nice hotel, seemed family run, as reception staff were laid back but friendly enough. Very helpful getting me into the tight underground car park(space for 7 cars at a squeeze). Rooms were nice enough with remote controlled air con. and good shower room. Thought it was slightly over priced for the quality, but I think you're paying for it's very good location at the gate to the Old Town. Finding it was tricky, but all the hotels in Sienna are well sign posted, if you spot the sign posts!

This was a very adequate hotel for our needs and while in no way luxurious, I am very glad we stayed here. In particular staff were very helpful at all times and accomodated us excellently with regard to storing bags for us before check in, and having those bags in our room for us when we arrived later to check in. Help was also very competent with regard to advise on use of local taxi and train services.

We are a family of 4 who spent 4 nights at Hotel Alex. Our room was a little crowded for 4 people. Also, our room overlooked a busy intersection so we had to keep our window closed and the air conditioning on the whole time. It was clean and neat, if a little old and dated. It is well located just outside Porta Pispina for walking into old Siena. The breakfast room is bright and airy and parking is available

Convenient Hotel and very helpful staff. Better avoid rooms on the street side: really noisy. 15 minutes walking distance from the city center, or there is a small bus right from the hotel to center. Parking can be difficult in the street, I didn't even try to use the Garage offered by the Hotel: impressively steep and narrow access.

I would definitely stay at this hotel again. The rooms are very spacious, and the staff very friendly. The hotel was easy to find as it is located on the main road very close to one of the gates to the city and there is parking under the hotel.

I really liked Hotel Alex. The location was very good, just outside the walls of Siena. The hotel staff was friendly, even though they didn't speak much english and I only spoke survival Italian. The included breakfast was very good and in a bright and sunny room. Our hotel room was very large and very clean. The street is very quiet on the weekend and a bit busier during the week. I'd definitely stay at this hotel again
