I was pleasantly surprised with how much I enjoyed my 3 night stop over in Florence staying at this hotel. It may be on the other side of the river and slightly away from the centre but it will satisfy all your needs. The hotel itself can be reached from the train station by bus as walking with bags is... more

My wife and I were honeymooning in Italy and Austria for two weeks. All of our hotels were between $140 and $200 per night. Of all the hotels we stayed at, this is the one hotel that I would not recommend. In general, I am not a complainer. All I am looking for in a hotel is a clean place... more

We didn't arrive at our hotel in Florence until about 1 in the morning. They were great at the front desk given the hour. Our room (for 3 people) was big enough to accommodate us comfortably. Their breakfast was great and the terrace garden was very nice for breakfast and even through-out the day and evening. The location of the... more

All the good things you see on other reviews are correct. This is not 4/5 star but more than adequate for those visiting Florence. more

Silla Hotel is in a great location with good price for the value. The Hotel is walking distance to the center of Florence (i.e. about 10 minutes) . It is across the street from the Arno river. The amenities are very good: air conditioning that works all the time in the humid summertime; breakfast included in the room rate which... more

We stayed at Silla Hotel at the suggestion of our travel agent. it was a great suggestion. We liked everything about the hotel -- the price, the service, the room, the location, and the breakfast. The staff was truly remarkable -- bending over backwards to be helpful. The room was clean and ample (enough -- this is Florence!). The hotel... more

The Silla is a lovely place to stay in Florence. The staff is the most friendly and helpful of any hotel I have stayed in anywhere (seriously). The rooms are large enough and have all the conveniences needed. Our daughter accompanied us on this trip and they arranged for her to have a room right next to ours with a... more

The Silla was recommended to us by Italian-American friends who have stayed there many times and know Florence well. We were not only welcomed with gracious attention but our emails prior to arrival were answered promptly and our requests were fulfilled. For the price, we did not expect this level of service and were more than pleased. Breakfast on the... more

Brilliant, quiet, family run, view over Arno, 5 mins walk from ponte vecchio - ask for room 23 or equivalent - aircond is whisper quiet but enough to mask traffic and partner's snoring. Recent refurbish is good though ensuite is small - who cares the shower works well. Lovely terrace for breakfast or drinks - minibar in room will take... more
