A toilet seat hinge and a toilet seat assembly comprising the toilet seat hinge are disclosed. The disclosed toilet seat hinge is configured to eliminate or reduce the number of gaps, edges, sharp corners and/or exposed surfaces found in and around conventional toilet seat hinges. This can be done, for example, without compromising simplicity or manufacturability. Several features of the disclosed toilet seat hinge make it easier to clean than conventional toilet seat hinges. The seat and lid, for example, can be attached to rotatable elements that are cradled in a base and rotate on substantially the same axis. The profile of the hinge can be streamlined with numerous concave surfaces. Portions of the seat and lid that are not connected to one of the rotatable elements can slide against other elements, so as not to create gaps or sharp corners.
