We love the Siena, we used to stay here more often in the past. We then had to opt for cheaper options. As long as we get a good price, this will remain our n.1 stay option in Chapel Hill (and we have stayed everywhere!). We will return!

When we travel, we always try to find an autograph because they’re a step above your regular hotel. Attention to details is very important. They treated our dog as if she was a princess when we arrived at the hotel at the front desk Katie handed us a bag for Margaux it had in it a water bowl. It had some dog biscuits, bottles of water and a doggy menu for her to choose a meal off of room service. The room was exceptional. We had two double queen beds and it was quiet it was clean. The bathroom was delightful. It was a walk-in Italianate marble bathroom. The housekeeping services were wonderful. The room service person that we dealt with by the name of Kim was exceptional. All of our food was great there and the care of hospitality with the restaurant and with the hotel was exceptional. When we come back we will definitely stay at the sienna and Margaux gives it five paws 🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾 She enjoyed it. They treated her so well and took very good care of her.

Easy location for UNC. We didn’t use it but they do have a shuttle that will drop you off right on Franklin Street if needed. Our room was well-appointed, AC worked almost too-well;). There was an adjoined room and each time their door was opened or shut it so under line they were entering our room through the connecting door. More of a nuisance than anything. All in all an easy hotel for a quick night’s stay in Chapel Hill!
