Grand Hotel Continental Italy Vacation and Luxury Travel Package
 At long last, after two years of restoration works, the Grand Hotel Continental to the most discriminating guests, in the majestic Palazzo Gori, commissioned by the Chigi family to the architect Giovanni Fontana in the 17th century.
In Piazza Salimbeni, the heart of the ancient Medieval city and just steps away from Piazza del Campo, this splendid aristocratic mansion now plays a vital role of the cultural heritage of Siena.
As if by magic, refurbishment of the building has returned the ancient ornaments and magnificent frescoes to their original splendour.
For light refreshment, there is the excellent Sapordivino wine bar for sampling prestigious vintages, to enjoy with typical Tuscan cheeses and cold cuts, situated in its medieval cellars.
For more intimate moments, the silent beauty of the winter garden in the covered courtyard; for exclusive events, the sumptuous setting of the Salone delle Feste.
Grand Hotel Continental Accommodations 
The great doors to each chamber usher you into spaces that it would be unjust to describe as mere rooms.
From the suites to the "simple" single rooms, each one is different, with frescoed vaulted ceilings or coffered wooden beams, terracotta floors, prints and paintings of acknowledged value, and splendid period furniture.
How can anyone fail to be thrilled on entering the magnificent San Cristoforo suite with its precious authentic 15th-century fresco, the tower suite on two levels with bijou panoramic studio, or the delightful octagonal room with four-poster bed, the ideal love nest for newlyweds? The utmost care is lavished on each and every detail, from the precious marble of the bathrooms to the latest technology for contact with the rest of the world, all in flawless harmony to ensure that each guest's stay is more than perfect.
Grand Hotel Continental, Italy Restaurant
Sapordivino Italian restaurant
It is hardly any wonder that the cream of Siena and its surroundings also choose this venue for lunch, dinner or an enticing aperitif.Sapordivino is a far cry from the classic restaurant, and not only by virtue of its magnificent setting beneath a crystal ceiling in the towering courtyard of Palazzo Gori.
The menu is drawn up with obsessive care to represent the very best of the local culinary tradition, faultlessly prepared dishes of simple grace that finally provide guests with a wholly authentic experience of the Sienese lifestyle. The assortment of cheese and cold cuts is a genuine delight for those who truly love good food, all too often ruined in deluxe establishments by pointless and pernicious affectation.
