I've given the hotel 3 starts but would have given it 3.5 if I could. We selected based on Tripadvisor reviews and on the basis that in an extremely expensive city Hotel Silla was not as expensive as most others with good reviews.

We stayed her for 2 nights, beginning Sept. 28, 2009. We found it on tripadvisor and made the decision based on the reviews, location, price and good communication. They always returned my e-mails in a timely fashion and answered all my questions. They helped me make museum reservations and to know what taxi fares would be. The hotel was in... more

The staff at the hotel is excellent. Great location about a 5-10 min walk from main tourist attractions. We were looking for a hotel out of the center of town and this fit the bill. Close enough to get to tourist attractions without being overrun by tourists. Good restaurants right behind the hotel. more

The hotel had nice, clean, comfortable rooms. The location is great: just across the Arno but everything is still within walking distance. The staff was just great. It's a privately owned hotel and their pride shows. Breakfast setting on the terrace was very nice. Great value for the price (and free wireless in certainly a plus). We would go back... more
