Hotel Silla was terrific. Our room was spacious and nicely furnished. The hotel staff was extremely helpful with museum reservations and restaurant recommendations. The breakfast was excellent. There is a very nice rooftop terrace where drinks are served in the late afternoon and evening. The location across the Arno (Oltrarno) from the historic downtown offers welcome relief from the crowds... more

We stayed here for 4 nights in mid-October. We had an upper room that looked out over the back street and was very quiet. The room was very large comfortable and very clean. The location is perfect - far enough from downtown to not be in the "thick of things" but within walking distance of everything. The staff were particularly... more

The hotel has a wonderful location that allows easy access to the florence attractions. It is located within sight of the Arno river, and easy walking distance to the ponte vecchio bridge. The only difficulty we had was finding it when traveling from the Siena area. Parking on the street is also difficult to find once you reach the hotel,... more

On the south side of the Arno, away from the busy traffic, an excellent hotel. Staff very helpful and spoke good english. Our room at the front had a view of the Duomo just across the river. There is a bar in the street below which was noisy one night but generally excellent. Also nearby restaurants good and inexpensive. Only... more

Hotel Silla is located across the Arno river with a view of the Duomo and a short walk to the Uffizi and the Ponte Vecchio. The room was very comfortable, the staff very helpful and personable. They made reservations for us at the Uffiz and the Academy (to see Michaelangelo's David). We walked everywhere from the hotel after parking the... more

Hotel Silla is a great find across the river from all the main sights in Florence. Their customer service is top notch, they are always willing to answer questions, recommend a restaurant or reserve an entrance to a museum or tourist attraction. They provide free internet access in the lobby, and their breakfast is terrific! Also, enjoy a bottle or... more

My wife and I booked a 4 night stay at Hotel Silla after reading the great reviews here and we are really glad we did! First of all, our room was clean, huge and even had a second "room" with a third bed. We did not book this on purpose, but it would be perfect for someone traveling with a... more

Very friendly and attentive staff. Comfortable and clean triple room. We paid exactly what was advertised -- no hidden charges. We would definitely stay there... more
