Great Hotel, Great Price, Great Location Hotel Silla was a great hotel. The location was incredible, with a beautiful view of the park and the river in the background. The rooms were well appointed, and very clean. The front desk staff and the breakfast staff were just so wonderful, had great recommendations and were eager to help us in any way. The location was perfect as it was across the bridge from the city. It was a quick walk to all of the sights in Florence, and a calm, quiet respite at the end of the day.
Fantastic Hotel! We chose the Silla Hotel from a guide book because it was a small hotel and on the quieter side of the River Arno and the building itself sounded interesting. The staff were friendly and helpful to any questions we asked. Even though we didn't have one of the most expensive rooms, we had a lovely view over the balcony with flowers, trees and partially of the river. Everything was clean with extra amenities such as the safe included in the cost.The location was perfect, it was easy walking distance to all the cities main attractions and behind the hotel we walked to some beautiful Tuscan views. There is an excellent pizzeria on the same road too!I would definitely recommend staying at this hotel.

Brillant Hotel Perfect location, great hotel, friendly staff and a lovely breakfast. Couldn't have picked a better hotel. Our room was large, view of the Arno and the beds were comfy. The staff was very friendly and helpful throughout our stay (we were there a week). The greatest surprise was that there was a breakfast buffet every morning which set up our day of sightseeing just great. The hotel is located a few minutes walk from the Ponte Vecchio one way or Santa Croce church the other. The bus stop is just across the street and the number 23 takes you straight in town all the way to the train station. I highly recommend this hotel.

Loved it! This hotel was recommended to me by friends and it was great. The front desk staff were so helpful to us in our first visit to Florence. The room was clean and comfortable and the location of the hotel was very convenient. Also, the breakfast was included which consisted of plenty of options (although not an American breakfast, I surely didn't go hungry!) and the lady in the breakfast room always had our American Coffee with Milk on the way when we came in. Great staff, great place.Wouldn't hesitate to go back - as often as I can manage it!

Great location, great service 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 car in their garage. You are just minutes away from most of the major sites in Florence at Hotel Silla. I'd stay again in a heartbeat.

Clean with good location My husband and I stayed at Hotel Silla for 2 nights in September. Based on some of the reviews, I was concerned about the location but it was a great location. It was quiet and a very quick walk over the bridge to all the action. The hotel was very clean and comfortable and the breakfast was more than enough. The AC worked too and was very much needed in September! We would definitely recommend staying here and would stay again ourselves if ever lucky enough to return to Florence.

Best place to stay in Florence Our stay at the Hotel Silla was our best experience in all of Italy! The hotel has very clean rooms and the most spacious I have ever stayed in all of Europe. The staff was very friendly and very helpfuland went out of their way to assist us. The location was on the banksof the Arno and away from the crowded alleys of Florence. We had a great view from our room! Very close to the Ponte Vecchio and the Ufizzi.

Great hotel in great location in Florence This is a great old hotel in Florence. The hotel staff were wonderful - always helpful and willing to help arrange reservations at museums and restaurants. The room we staying in was very big. Breakfast was excellent. We loved the location of the hotel. It was away from the crowds and tourists, but very easy to walk to the museums and other sights. There is also a great little neigborhood right behind the hotel.
