My folks are lucky enough to soon embark on a three week vacation in Florence, Rome, and Tuscany. I envy them immensely - I love Tuscany. Here is directions to a hotel they are staying at in Siena.
From the west ring road of Siena (the Tangenziale Ovest Di Siena) take the exit Siena Acqua Calda. Turn right at the roundabout into Via Raimondo Da Capua, and then into Via Bernardo Tolomei. Continue for 500m then turn right into Turn right, follow Via Celso Cittadini and drive straight on into Follow Via Quinto Settano. After 100m turn right into Turn right, follow Via Fiorentina, and continue into Viale Camillo Benso Conte Di Cavour for about 1km. Turn right into Viale Vittorio Emanuele II, follow Via Ricasoli, then turn left into Viale Nazario Sauro, and right into Viale Armando Diaz, and after 200m turn left into Viale Della Vecchia. Turn left, follow Viale XXV Aprile, right into Viale Cesare Maccari, then right into Piazza Antonio Gramsci. Turn left into Via Del Cavallerizzo, then immediately right into Via Dei Montanini-Piazza Salimbeni. After 400m turn left into Piazza Tolomei then right into Il Campo. Turn right into Il Campo, then right again after 200m into Via Giovanni Dupré for 336m, then right again into Via Sant'Agata, then right into Via Di San Pietro, at the end of which you will find us at Casato Di Sopra 33 Siena.

However, directions by foot are much easier:
The easiest way to get from the train station to the Antico Residence il Casato is to take a taxi. However if you prefer to walk and get a feel for Siena it is a 2.3 km walk from the station to the hotel. Leave the square of the train staion, Piazza Carlo Rosselli, into Via Achille Sclavo, turn right at the round about and right again into Viale Giuseppe Mazzini. Continue into Via Garibaldi, then left into Via Del Pian D'Ovile. After around 300m turn left again into Vicolo Del Lavatoio, then immediately right into Via Di Vallerozzi. Continue for 110m then turn left into Via Dei Montanini-Piazza Salimbeni, continue into Banchi di Sopra, then Via di Città, then turn left into Vicolo Di Tone. After 53m turn right into Casato Di Sotto, then left into Casato Di Sopra, where you will find the entrance to the property.Yikes. I counted (quickly) 24 streets, in slightly over a mile.
