Silla is a 3 star hotel in Florence.
The Hotel Silla Firenze has the classical structure of a Florentine villa from the late Renaissance: three floors, with and entrance through a garden and an elegant interior courtyard. It is situated near Chiesa di Santa Croce, Piazzale Michelangelo, and Cathedral of Santa Maria dei Fiori. A complimentary buffet breakfast is served daily on the terrace or in the breakfast room. The hotel bar features a terrace that overlooks the river and Demidoff Park. A reading room and a television lounge are offered. All the 35 rooms feature pictorial themes with artistic masterpieces on the walls, and offer views of Demidoff Park, the Arno River or Via de' Renai.
The Silla is a great value. We thought that we were on a movie set. Our room was nicely appointed and our little balcony looked out to the city and the river. We looked down onto the roof garden full of plants and flowers, tables and unbrellas. You could eat your breakfast out there in nice weather. Breakfast was complimentary and fabluous..fresh fruit , eggs, pastry, meats and cheese etc. The dining room was beautiful - very elegant old world.
All the people in the hotel were helpful and nice. A great experience

For the price we paid we were very satisfied, a little over $700 US for six nights. The room was very large and clean and the front desk staff were wonderful. Our expectations were more than met. Even though it is not near the train or bus station the nearby sites were within walking distance and we never paid more than 11 euros for a cab when we did take one.

We stayed for 6 nights in late November/early December. Selected the hotel for it's ease of access to the Florence marathon start and finish. Helpful staff, with good English. Breakfast was continental but well stocked. We got a large room to the rear which overlooked a rear street. Noicy in the moring as people delivered goods, went to work etc. Didn't bother us but rooms overlooking courtyard may be quieter. Very handy for town, 10 minute walk. No 23 bus will take you to/from railway station in 15mins. Stops are not far from hotel. Clean, friendly, recommended.

Pretty good hotel, good location, very friendly staff. As can happen at European hotels, the single room was quite small. This one was located next to the breakfast area, which got very noisy at 6:00am with pre-breakfast crashing and banging. Otherwise very good experience.
