Magione 10 is located in the heart of Siena’s historic center, inside Porta Camollia. Fully renovated in March 2023, the apartment lies along the Via Francigena, in the Contrada dell’Istrice, about 900 meters from Piazza del Campo and just 400 meters from the escalator linking the train station to the center. It features a private ground-floor entrance from the charming Vicolo della Magione, ideal for experiencing the authentic local atmosphere.

The space
A play of colors and volumes, combined with carefully designed lighting, gives the apartment a pleasant and contemporary atmosphere within the ancient city walls, just opposite the Church of San Pietro alla Magione, dating back to the 10th century.

The apartment is arranged over different levels and includes a living area, two bedrooms, a bathroom, and a spacious utility room used for laundry and storage.

The living area is divided into three distinct spaces: kitchen, dining, and relaxation. The kitchenette is fully equipped with a worktop, induction burners, dishwasher, refrigerator, and sink. The dining table, seating up to six guests, is positioned in front of a window overlooking a charming alley. On the opposite wall, next to a second window facing the same alley, there is a sofa that converts into a French double bed (140 cm wide). A 40" Panasonic TX-40DE400E Smart TV completes the living space.

Five easy steps lead from the living area to the sleeping quarters. The first bedroom features a French double bed (140 cm wide), a wardrobe, and a 27" LG 27TQ615S Smart TV. The second, more spacious bedroom includes a 160 cm bed, a wardrobe, another 27" Smart TV, and an elegant writing desk.

The modern bathroom is equipped with a spacious 150 cm wide shower enclosed by a sliding glass door.

The large basement level offers a versatile and well-equipped space with a sink, washing machine, ironing board, and ample storage for luggage and bicycles.

Guest access

Other things to note
With a convenient location offering easy access from the train and bus stations, as well as free parking areas, this apartment is perfect for both leisure travelers and professionals visiting Siena for work. Tucked away in a quiet alley just off the busy Camollia street—once the main route from France to Rome traveled by ancient pilgrims—guests can simply step outside and find a variety of typical Tuscan restaurants, food shops, cafés, a large supermarket, as well as leather and antique shops, all surrounded by the vibrant, authentic atmosphere of local daily life.

There is no private parking on the premises. However, guests can find free public parking spaces nearby, just outside Porta Camollia, within a few minutes’ walk from the apartment.

Neighborhood highlights

The area is teeming with restaurants, pizzeria and bars of all kinds but it also offers all types of facility: post office, bank and several pharmacies, supermarket and quality food, hairdressers and beauty centres, with some historic excellences such as high-quality shops of sporting goods, cycles and motorcycles as well as the classic artisan shops.

A very lively and at the same time peaceful environment, with a mix between history and art (among the many churches of the area, the more ancient one in Siena, dating back to the tenth century, named Church of San Pietro alla Magione is just beside the apartment), offices and professional activities, so close to the park of La Lizza and Fortezza Medicea.

The atmosphere becomes electric during the Palio thanks to the crucial position between the historic headquarters, the museum, the church, the stable, the club of the Contrada dell'Istrice. An experience to live but difficult to describe; let's say: simply impossible!
