A perfect little gem! What a great find!

I just returned from a ten day visit to Florence. Hotel Silla was my home away from home during these warm summer days. The room was small, but comfortable for a single person, it had everything one needed for a visit to this great city: a nice view across the patio, a little park, the Arno and you could even see the Duomo and hear its glorious bells. And the A/C was working!
The hotel staff was more than accommodating and helpful, they arranged for a smooth transfer from and to the airport, always made the laptop in the lobby available for those who cannot live without email.
The location allows one to get away from the continuous foot traffic of the centro storico, even though all the sights are easily reachable on foot.
I also loved the cappuccino and the wonderful breakfast on the patio.
Have already recommended the hotel to a friend who will visit in the spring of 2009; and I will certainly stay there again on my next visit.
Ciao and arrivederci.
