Experience the charm of a stunning hotel nestled in the heart of Florence, just a 10-minute walk to the iconic Ponte Vecchio! The Florence Duomo is also nearby, placing you in the perfect location to explore the city's best attractions. I was fortunate to get a single room—compact but incredibly comfortable. And with its excellent price considering the prime location, this hotel truly offers fantastic value for your stay. I will definitely recommend this hotel to friends, family, and anyone looking for a place to stay in Florence.
Excellent location. Very helpful and professional staff. Nice room facilities. We enjoyed the breakfast very much and its a good value for money . Definitely coming back. Andreas from Cyprus
A wonderful haven close to all the main attractions of Firenze. Great welcome at the beginning and throughout. Breakfast was delicious and could be eaten in the terrace. This was the quieter option if the eating area is full of enthusiastic tour groups. Fresh fruit, pastries, pancakes and coffee with hot bacon, eggs and tomato. Room was very comfortable and spacious. Tea and coffee through the day until evening. Would highly recommend and definitely return.
I am absolutely thrilled with my stay at Hotel Silla in Florence! From the moment you arrive, you can feel the special charm of this place – a beautiful, authentic Florentine style that immediately sets the tone. The welcome was incredibly warm, and the staff member who brought my luggage to the room was exceptionally friendly. What really stood out to me was how flexible and accommodating the team was with my special requests – you truly feel valued and taken care of here. Breakfast the next morning was excellent as well: a great selection and very high quality. In general, the entire staff is not just “trying” to be friendly – they genuinely are. That makes a huge difference. The room was great, and the location is simply outstanding: in one direction, you cross the bridge and are immediately at the edge of the old town. In the other direction, you can walk uphill and reach a beautiful square in about 15 minutes – perfect for an unforgettable sunrise. Another huge advantage: parking in Florence is known to be very difficult – but here it was completely stress-free. I simply parked the car in front of the hotel, and the team took care of everything and parked it safely in the garage. I didn’t stay in any other hotel in Florence, but this honestly feels like one of the best choices you can make. Highly recommended – I will definitely come back!
The hotel room was elegant with a fully renovated bathroom, including a bathtub and bidet. The bed was comfortable and the high ceilings made the room feel grand. The heater worked well as we had some cold nights.+1°C. Breakfast was available in a lovely room with chandeliers. There was the usual eggs and bacon but also a European offering of meats, cheeses, pastries, fruit, granola, yogurt and even honeycomb. The outdoor terrace looked onto the old city and had heaters inside. Smoking was not allowed in this area. Tea and coffee were available in this area each afternoon. I had the hotel do laundry for us at a cost only a little more than a self serve place I used in Nice. And the location was perfect! It was a 15 minute walk to Uffizi and 20 minutes to the top of Michaelangelo Piazza. There were many restaurants nearby at a variety of price points. The cost of this hotel with breakfast included was so affordable in January.
