Cheap hotels in Sienne tonight
Updated 4 July 2026 · 36 real hotels
Siena offers genuine budget options starting at 73 € per night, ranging from campsites on the city outskirts to well-rated guesthouses and even a 4-star property under 85 €. Staying slightly outside the historic center, in areas like Camollia or Petriccio, keeps costs low while public buses connect you quickly to Piazza del Campo. Booking mid-week and avoiding the Palio festival dates in July and August delivers the biggest savings.
Your stay in Sienne, in one conversation
Charlize builds hotels, activities and dining around your wishes, dates and budget.
Siena is one of Tuscany's most visited medieval cities, yet it remains more affordable than Florence for overnight stays. The compact historic center is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, but prices vary considerably depending on how close to the Piazza del Campo you sleep. Properties just a ten or fifteen minute bus ride away, in residential neighborhoods like Camollia, Petriccio, or Montarioso, regularly offer rates well below those of central hotels, without sacrificing comfort or character. Our selection below has already been filtered to show only the lowest available nightly rates, starting from 73 € and topping out at 85 €.
Traveling on a budget in Siena is entirely realistic if you plan around a few key principles. First, avoid the Palio horse race weekends (typically early July and mid-August), when demand spikes and even budget rooms can double in price. Second, consider arriving by train or regional bus rather than renting a car, since most cheap hotels near the center sit inside or just outside the ZTL restricted traffic zone, making parking an extra cost you can avoid. Third, look for properties that include breakfast, as even a light Italian breakfast in a cafe near the Campo can add 5 to 8 € per person to your daily spend.

Petriccio and Montarioso are quieter residential areas where properties like Villa le Camelie and Villa Montarioso offer good value between 76 € and 82 € per night. The historic center itself, while pricier on average, still has budget picks such as Hotel Alma Domus and Casa di Osio, both available from 83 € per night.
Is it possible to find a highly rated hotel in Siena for under 85 € per night?+
Yes, several options in our selection combine low prices with strong guest scores. Hotel Palazzo dei Priori, a 4-star hotel in Siena, is available from 84 € per night with a rating of 4.4 out of 5. Hotel Alma Domus in the city center also scores 4.4 out of 5 at 83 € per night, making it one of the best value-for-money choices in the entire selection.
When is the best time to book a cheap hotel in Siena?+
For the lowest rates, target the shoulder seasons: March to May and September to October offer mild weather, thinner crowds, and more competitive pricing. Avoid the Palio festival weekends in early July and mid-August, when rooms in the center can become scarce and significantly more expensive. Booking at least three to four weeks in advance, especially for summer travel, helps secure the rates listed in this selection.
