We are planning on taking a bus from Rome to Siena. Looking at the SENA site there are 4 stops apparently in Siena. Our hotel is pretty close to the train station (Hotel Italia). I am guessing that the stop "Pza Stazione FS-Fta SENA' is the one by the train station going by the name. I googled it and looked, couldn't find a definitive answer. Anyone know if this is the stop we will want? Thanks!

Look for the bus stop in Piazza Antonio Gramsci, as that's the one right in the centre of town.

So, I was thinking we would want to get off at the bus stop by the train, since our hotel is closer to the train station than the center of town.

If you want to get off near the station, then that is the stop, that would be the actual train station. There really is no bus station as I recall in Siena, each is just a scheduled stop, of course the bus will likely stop many more times as needed, so don't plan on "counting" stops. The train station is well outside city center, but there is a city bus into town.

For Hotel Italia, it appears that the main train station stop is most likely the one you want. From in front of the train station, cross the plaza to the shopping mall and take the escalator up to the street above. Once at the top, it should be just a short walk to the hotel. Walking to the hotel from Piazza Gramsci would take you about twice as long.
