Toilet hinge arrangement (1) including a base member (2), a shaft member (7) extending upwardly from the base member, and a mounting hole (10) provided in the base member. The base member (2) includes a circular shaft hole (9) extending from the lower face (3) of the base member to the upper face (21) of the base member, and being provided with an inner downwardly facing contact face (11) spaced apart from the lower face of the base member. Spaced apart from its lower end, the shaft member (7) is provided with an upwardly facing contact face (12) abutting the downwardly facing contact face (11) of the shaft hole in a locking position, whereby the shaft member can be retained in the shaft hole of the base member between the downwardly facing contact face (11) and the surface (19) of the toilet bowl, when the base member is fastened to the toilet bowl.
